Right so life can lick my balls. This is a hard time for me, we'll see where things end up.
now that we have the pleasentries out of th way, down to brass tax. As some of you fellas know, I've had some pretty dire money troubles of late. This all came to a head when basically I was told by State that unless I decided it was about time to pay them i wouldnt be able to return ! so that's super !
Well as you can imagine 3 grand is tough to pull out of your pockets at a whim, so as of this morning stevey is no longer mine. I sold him to my cousin who in turn sold him to someone else it would seem.
SO !! dont give stevey any of your shit.
I've been at a relatives the last week or 2 so I haven't been able to be around or talk to anyone. I'll be around on the computer over the next few weeks, and I'm hoping to start playing again on a new account sometime in the future, but we shall see.
I just didnt have any other choice. I'm sorry I'll need to be moved to alumni for the time being
I'll be back next week, I just needed to update everyone.
my access is gone now so I'm only able to see this forum if anyone needs anything from me just pm me and I'll reply as soon as I can

not to be negative or anything....but i highly doubt you will be moved to alumni. you sell your shit = you are gone for good. its pretty much the standard in KTF.
I can only assume that's why your access was removed and Stevey was kicked from KTF earlier today.

I imagine if you tried a little bit harder you could've come up with a more believeable story.
I'm not exactly mad really, just don't insult our intelligence. You saw an out, and a profitable one at that apparently. Yes you are the first person ever in the history of online gaming who "sold their account to their cousin" and "had it sold to someone else" or something to that effect. I mean really, who can't foresee what, a payment to stay in school? THAT NEVER COMES UP THAT SHIT IS FREE AMIRITE?! Then it begs the question if you could possibly foresee that, then what were you doing all this time not even trying to socket away that needed three grand, along with all sorts of other gaps on your logic train. So one assumes that all along while you maybe hadn't planned on selling your account it wasn't something you would object to, or maybe that was the point all along which might explain why you made a big deal about stuff you wanted to make sure you got despite the lack of effort on your part. Such probing questions I am not really all that interested in knowing the answers to.
I'd have more respect for you if you said "Hey guys I had the opportunity to get paid, so I took it. Bye". At least it would have been honest.

The whole thing is slightly aggravating but that's all. We pushed hard for you to join the guild, knowing you had friends in it and that you were a pretty decent player and an alright guy. You nearly didn't even make it in because of your sketchy attendance and all around flakiness, I guess it should have been a sign of what was to come, eh. Maybe you are being honest, maybe you aren't, I'll never know, or care, but you could have given us the decency to say, "Hey guys, for some unforeseen reason, I'm going to be missing half the raids for the next month, and then every raid for the month after that", and maybe we wouldn't be so bitter about your membership. Maybe it was your plan all along, I mean you lobbied for rotting loot at any chance you could. Show up late to a raid? After missing countless without telling anyone? I must deserve the loot that is rotting inside, I'll make sure to let it be known that I need to be allowed to loot these items. You left your friends in the dark. Shit, you left your friends from Immo in the dark. I had to hear it third hand from Rava, who was told by Syxx that you quit the game because your girlfriend gave you an ultimatum about quitting WoW or her leaving you. So what was it? Lying to a closer friend? Or lying to a group of 45 friends? You should have just been honest your whole stay in the guild.
Most people I thank for their time investment when they quit the game or leave the guild, but I won't for you. You abused your friendship with KTF and I don't appreciate that. I hope you find some sort of answers in life, these were some of the best friends you could have ever met. The people in this guild do crazy things for their friends. I used to wonder how in the world guilds could just explode and not exist anymore, there must be a lot of people like you around in other guilds.

I guess my question is this - the couple of hundred bucks you got for your account (likely and is a guess) - can be made, working part time, in a couple of weeks....
I understand the tuition crunch - went through college myself....worked while in college, part time, to help pay for stuff that my parents couldn't pay for, and to have spending money.
And I made a lot more money working part time, than I could get for selling my account in WoW...
So, it doesn't make much sense, really, as to why you'd go that route instead of saying "hey guys - my financial aid got denied....i've had to pickup a part time job/increase my hours at work to help accommodate the shortfall, so i won't be around much..." than to go the "I sold it to my cousin who sold it to someone else" route...
Just doesn't make sense to me...unless, of course, you're adverse to work.
You have to understand - the reactions from some folks are natural. KTF has been an "uberguild" of close people for quite some time, and we've seen the selling of accounts only a few times in the past. We know it happens - happens all the time, elsewhere. Maybe you just never got to the point of understanding the closeness a lot of us, especially the old schoolers, have together, and would see it as a slap in the face to sell our accounts, knowing what our guildmates and friends did to help us get our toons to where we are....
I'd like to lead myself to believe that's why so very few people have sold their accounts, and been KTF members...Which is why I like to believe a lot of the reaction you're getting is that of utter disbelief in your story, especially when there are other alternatives that make much more common sense.
As for all your friends knowing you were in trouble - you'd be surprised at how many of "real friends" in KTF have helped out other members in KTF, financially, many times. I've had many times where I've had to ask for help from some of my closer friends, and some have asked me for help, and that's the way it's been.
Guess you didn't bother considering us worth asking for help if you really needed it that bad - because, well, KTFers are like that to each other and have been for a long time. Again, pulling credibility from your story.
Anyways, good luck in school. I'm sure the $200-300 you got for your toon were worth tossing your "friends" that were in the guild off - it's obvious you didn't care about that.

So your financial aid was denied and you suddenly decide to hock your account? Right, I'm sure thats how it went down. I just don't buy it because to be quite honest lots of people have been in far worse situations than yourself yet somehow managed. Seriously, with how little time you ended up spending in game, what were you doing with your time? If you knew imminent financial hardships were coming, why not deal with them? It certainly wasn't a lack of time on your part from spending the time playing a game. Most people don't sell their accounts because its a disrespect to their guild. Shit I quit EQ uhh, 3 years ago? And the account is still there (not that its worth much now or anything). I couldn't bring myself to do it because it would be a disrespect to the people I spent years guilded with, not that it even matters now that no one plays the game.
Marth is right, over the years folks have been pretty close and help each other. I just call bullshit because really its not like you got kids or your wife had some medical problems or something, unpredictable things come up in those situations. You are just a student still, what could your pressing financial responsibilities be besides staying in school? Seriously, I figure either your woman forced you out (which seems to be suggested above), or you got in, picked up what ya could and sold as soon as it was a convenient time to do so.
Again, not even mad, but have the stones to admit it. You could make some easy cash so you took it.

At least he wasn't one of the stupid c*nt b|tches who used to rant and rave about how evil account selling is, and then goes around and sells! I didnt know Stevey, but he sounds like he has Deleroach written all over him. Some may not remember or have been around then, but HA i say, F you and im glad you are gone.
