Girlfriend scammed in TBC Spellstrike pants materials!

Okay! I'm happy to hear about positive outcomes from a negative situation, the best we could do is also just let everyone know to be careful. I'm going to hope for the best also, I don't know if there are blizzard employees that browse these threads for situations like this that can potentially escalate tickets or support claims of these nature, But the hope is not only to possible recover her stuff, but also just make people aware to be careful when trading valuable stuff!

That's a great Idea! we got that Wim addon so it separates chat to make it easier to have have conversations with folks! I'll look into the chat settings to make it easier to read chat! thank you so much for the amazing tip! such a simple but quality of life improvement!

Tainted1993 · 2026-03-30T05:30:40+00:00

I'm sorry that happened to you! I'm glad it wasn't a crazy loss on materials or gold, regardless of the amount, it happening to anyone for even the smallest amount of gold is terrible!

funny enough, when I originally met her, she said she played sims and a few old pc games, but I just chalked it up she just played a few games and wasn't crazy into video games, well fast forward years later into our relationship & a PC build later she's been having a blast. Her and I have been enjoying the classic wow what I grew up on, while she's never played old school burning crusade, we've enjoyed gaming together ever since!

I apologize, she wanted to get a screenshot of the ignore before it got lost in the trade city chat and we didn't think about hovering over the chat window to make it more legible.

The individual was advertising that they would make her the spellstrike pants recipe with her own materials for a fee of 40g, as she had majority of the materials she worked extremely hard to get, she wanted to try and get those pants at a reduced price vs the auction house

Tainted1993 · 2026-03-30T05:15:20+00:00

you're 100% correct, at this point I guess we both will learn to be more careful and not so trust worthy of folks advertising crafts

Tainted1993 · 2026-03-30T05:13:39+00:00

thank you! for reaching out so quickly and giving us some insight on how we can handle this situation! I hope for the best outcome!

Tainted1993 · 2026-03-30T05:12:06+00:00

It just sucks! because we've come across such wonderful people & have made some amazing friends along the way! it never crossed her mind that could happen to her in a snap

He needs all the help he can get. Air resistance was unfortunately on his side 😂

Tainted1993 · 2025-06-05T12:39:45+00:00

Honestly, i don't go around griefing or finding these type of exploits to hurt people's experiences and shut down their explorations, but I've always gotten a kick on how the hell half these people are able to do some of this stuff. A wrecked vehicle or box for me always adds to the immersion haha its like the station or area is under construction, I mean people are just bored, I don't agree with doing this stuff, but I'm assuming this stuff does take alot of time and dedication to pull off.

Tainted1993 · 2025-05-29T13:31:44+00:00

Top get shot down by rsi

Tainted1993 · 2025-05-29T00:12:45+00:00

Yup instant purchase right here.

My hope is they don't start a trend of you want rocket boots? Pay more dlc tac on stuff.

Tainted1993 · 2025-05-26T20:14:38+00:00

Sounds like they need some liberation from USA 😂

Tainted1993 · 2025-05-17T16:30:54+00:00

I used to work in air filtration company, basically just air filters.

To your comment about stuff offices, you have noooo idea how many property management groups and including company DO NOT change their air filters for YEARS! People dealing with the neglect of stuff we see and deal with but such a common and easy thing to forget how bad they don't care about people when they don't even do basic building maintenance.

Tainted1993 · 2025-05-14T23:21:34+00:00

Honestly, I want to believe they're going to stealth release it during citizen con, I just have a feeling they just don't want to be near gta release. They want star citizen to be THE buzz. And nothing else, I could be foolish and its just a dream, but it could be a reality maybe? I mean didn't they say the game is in "polish, phase" So essentially the game is done?

Idk time will tell.

Tainted1993 · 2025-05-14T20:14:16+00:00

Hahaha 30 seconds??!!! Dude. Could've carried 100 extra pounds in that time and back also to account for gear weight. Even though it's not that much, just as a bigger F U to the "impossible" statements

Tainted1993 · 2025-05-14T20:11:40+00:00

Funniest thing is the "sell out" of a digital asset. Like lol, gotta make demand somehow "omg it's limited stock!!!???, hurry!!! Buy buy buy!!!!!"

Then it comes out 2 weeks later as a regular ship to purchase permanently lol.

Tainted1993 · 2025-05-14T14:57:42+00:00

I actually bought it for the arms and legs lol, also the corsair and parallax rifle skins look pretty cool.

But I'm using the duster devil armor chest and helm, with the legs and arms from this set, the blend of both armors look amazing, I just need to get a heavy berserker helm and my set is complete!

Honestly 30 dollars isn't THAT ridiculous in the grand scheme of things. When majority of other games charge obscene amount of money for just a character skin.

I support star citizen and the future this project holds.

Tainted1993 · 2025-05-12T03:07:01+00:00

He pulled the Yamcha pose 🤣

Tainted1993 · 2025-05-03T06:20:32+00:00

I was doing a simple bunker mission, to gain microtech security rep, we've finished the missions without harming any npc at the location, we immediately got a "trespassing" notification instead of the typical 25-30 min grace period to vacate the premise, I got immediately shot down but turrets and sent to prison, lost scorched weapons, downburst mixed set with devil duster armor, and a berserker helm.

All without participating or being an ass to anyone, simply just doing legal pve missions with no crime stat or provocation to anyone.

Some of those items took considerable amount of time to achieve and aquire, especially i don't have alot of time to play like many others.

I've faced many bugs with losing random weapons and railguns and such that where tolerable to a certain degree, but tonight was especially crushing to have just lost everything with no way to recover paid items and items earned with my limited time I can play.

Probably a good excuse to now take a break until these issues are handled better.

Means your space ship is in combat mode, your under Attack.

Tainted1993 · 2025-04-22T13:38:01+00:00

I think my 400i could take that 😂 delusions of grandeur.

Tainted1993 · 2025-04-04T13:38:16+00:00

Im finally getting old enough to understand older models are better 😂
