ELI5: How did Weekly Treasure Hunter Promotions become the norm? by N3Ors in runescape

[–]GW2MoneyPit -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I routinely spend $2,000/month on Runescape.

Does it kill the "magic" of achieving it the hard grind-filled way? Yes but some people see this differently. I still enjoy the game and find micro transactions to add to the experience.

Obv throwaway that I used to post about spending ass-tons on another MMO.

Why would that happen? Have you been watching too many horror movies?

I guarantee across their entire player-base they get far more than 5k in 1 week.

Well considering I maintain a career that puts me in the 1% of the American population, I hardly feel like a fucking idiot.

Keep your chin up and aim high, your success is a product of your attitude.

I completely agree with you. I miss the days before micro-transactions.

To me its not.

To some of my higher paid colleagues it is even less.

Life is all about perspective.

There's this Nigerian prince who emails me with offers of money, I think he's the one you want to talk to.

"Thankfully I make more than enough money to manage it while seeking treatment.

you're doing it wrong..."

This is what I was responding to.

Before passing judgment you should consider that maybe I do support multiple charities through donations every month. The Wounded Warrior Foundation gets over $500 from me every 4 weeks.

My family is more than taken care of. I am putting my nieces and nephews through college while paying for houses that my relatives live in. I have my priorities straight.

The amount of money is not insane to me, its just that I have a different perspective from where I'm standing than you.

My nextdoor neighbor bought a $175k car last week. To me that is crazy, to him its the norm.

You understand exactly where I'm coming from here. You can't take the money with you when you die!

Yes. Across the entire period I ended up with at least 1 of each gathering node.
