I have been playing MMOs for about 6 years. 99% of them have been free ones. All free games have a generous slice of human existence and what I mean by that is; you have your knights, your maidens and your shady serfs. I have had more than my fair share of shady serf contact of a negative nature so trust me, Ive learned to be a wary maiden.

I like to enjoy all aspects of a game and am lucky enough to be able to run my computer all night long so I generally stall at night. One morning, I wake up, get my coffee and sit down to do some writing as I look over my stall. Then I get a PM from Pinoyballa.

He says, ","

I answer, "?"

He doesn't reply so I watch a few minutes and go back to writing. The only contact I have ever had with him is of course when he offered me a ridiculous amount of Jeon for my M3 elite chest. I didn't wish to sell it at that time, we talked back and forth because apparently he really thought I was silly for not selling it. Im ok with being silly in the name of good defense.

So back to my story. A few minutes later I get a PM from a guy named Flip something, a name I never saw before and he asks me about the chest. I tell him Im in a stall and writing right now but I would be happy to show him the chest later. He chitchats a few minutes and then goes quiet. About 5 minutes later, battle is announced, I go to it and when it ends, he again PMs me. I am kinda annoyed but I say FINE, Ill show him.

I tell him it will be a minute cause I have some items in the trade window and while I am transferring items, he says a curious thing.

"How do you make money? I am so broke!"

I ignore that and get the Elite from my storage, put it in the trade window and offer the trade. It's auto denied. I try a couple times and then PM him and tell him to turn on his trade. He says it is on, he must be bugged. I tell him to relog then and he does but still the trade doesn't go through.

"Put it in a stall." He says, "No one has 999,999,999 Jeon"

Red flags and whistles of course go off. Not only do ppl have WAY more than 1 bil Jeon, those that do have already assured me they are willing give it to me for the item.

"The people who have offered me more than a bil gold for the chest have that much gold and I dont want to sell, so go to my xfire and look up the screen." I say.

I tell him goodbye and reset my stall.

The moral of the story? I dunno... Maybe it's that some people don't take "NO" for an answer or that if they haven't had good luck, they are willing to take someone else's. The best rule is: If you think you want something, never, ever let it be in a position where someone can take it no matter how unlikely it may be. I'm not accusing anyone of anything, I'm no Nancy Drew. You can draw your own conclusions.

OMG ELITE ARMOR!! Its super rare and worth a dumpload of money. I just wanted to show it off.

What I really wanted to write about was my new XFire clan for 12sk2. It's empty and its kinda bothering me. lol Im trying to promote it a little without interfering with my Silkroad Online business. So if you play 12sky2 or even 12sky1, join it. (nevermind, I disbanded it. I just dont have enough time to push ppl into it. I just joined someone else's. Im so lazy!)

I like how xfire keeps people together and keeps them talking. It's also a great place to learn about new games and to see what your friends are playing. I mean, maybe you wanna try it or always wanted to! So if you arent already using xfire, try it. It's packed with features.

How could this possibly be on accident? Either way, its like the funniest mob EVER.

So her name is the "Disloyal Maiden" and this is how she appears when you first see her.


Then, as you whack at her a funny thing happens...


And it continues.....



And then...




Yeah. I know. The mob that strips for you as you fight her then flops on her back with her legs spread. It HAD to be on purpose and Im sure they are gonna remove it because she really is bare breasted, but I find it incredibly funny.

EDIT: Turns out, EVERY female mob in the game (and there are a lot, throughout all levels) has this rendering issue. Sometimes when they die, they will die as the wrong mob or have the wrong clothes on, so its definitely a rendering problem, but a funny one.
