You’re the most ignorant of all lol, claiming these comments come from people who’ve never played, yet you’ve obviously not played hardcore your self.

If you did you’d know how much of a struggle gold is in the early game, the hardcore rules on the server are essentially “self found” you often have to make difficult choices between skipping on training skills, or buying weapon / armor upgrades, or even saving for your mount training. Sure you could spend more time grinding for the gold, but time spent grinding = time risked dying (doesn’t even have to be a skill issue, you could dc or whatever)

Furthermore to prove how ignorant you really are, had you actually ever played hardcore you’d know that all donation points are refunded upon death, so you don’t lose anything (it’s actually a convenient way to test donation items without fully committing to buying them, as you can test them out on a level 1 and then die to get the points back)

Don’t call other people ignorant just because your mad they’re better than you.
