You have 250 coins with you.
In the back of your mind you remember you owe a debt of 323429 silvers in the town of Icemule Trace.

You study your current bank balances...
Vornavis: 9499 silvers
Your total silvers: 9499
4.5 million loan, anyone?

Yep.....Tayre's poor. I'm sure there are other people he owes money.

Heh. Hunting comes to mind as a way of gaining some coin, Tayre. However, it would behoove you to remember that Silversofts do not carry treasure. :D
HarmNone thinks Silversofts gen slowly, too

Luckily, I was smart enough to e-blade a falchion and hand all my stuff to a friend while I removed Silversoft's spinal cord for her.

ok, good, then I don't feel the need as a friend to loan you silver, since you will not loose anything :P

Tayre did give me a shield that was kind of nice not expecting to get it back. It allowed me to wreak more havoc before I deeded myself.
Garr was killed by a naked man in a gold bowtie.
Tayre is a giving person.
I hope he gets more coins soon.

Gah! Talk about an embarrassing death! The soul of iniquity would be to die at the hand of a naked man in a bowtie. I think I would rather be eaten by a carp!:o
HarmNone figures even fishfood is better than that

This is a fine total

Oh, hurray, you're going? We can go together and hang out and sit around waiting to maybe get alters! And if you're nice and don't call me a megaslut, I might even buy you some stuff! :lol:
Greg is still pissed that I paid for your fine, by the way. Hehe.

Was it Felhawk? He's been running around naked for weeks because his fines are so high. I went to Ta'ill and he was right behind me. He had no friends there either.
Supposedly he turned over a new leaf, so I hope it's not him. I actually saw him with a vultite shield, so he may have paid off his fine.

I have a few hundred k scattered here and there. If you really need I can scrape them together and let you try and put a dent in that fine.
<---- Not a rich guy but generous all the same. Hell that's probably why I'm not rich :cool:

I have people asking me if Whirlin is the sugar-daddy in the relationship. :rolleyes:
Seriously, they must be joking. Mr. I've-Meteor-Swarmed-Twice-in-Public? Hah. The only reason he has any money (less than 100k) to his name right now is because Khaladon paid the remaining 2 mil of Whirlin's fine out of the kindness of his heart.

Falgrin does NOT STEAL. I don't know where you come up with this story. Get your facts straight.
Besides, Falgrin is a deputy. There is no way he could be a deputy and a thief.
Get your fantasy story straight Edaarin. Falgrin is NOT A THIEF.
Period.
Well, all I know is that I had it in my cloak, and then it was in your hand.
It was meant for the rogues in the park! Not Edaarin at north gate. :(

Just for a different tune on this thread, heh.
You study your current bank balances...
Wehnimer's Landing: 13624852 silvers
Icemule Trace: 8474 silvers
Vornavis: 219557 silvers
United City-States: 7348 silvers
Your total silvers: 13860231
And I still haven't moved around silvers from my other characters to the one going to Ebon Gate to get stuff for them. Another million at least.
Edited to add: So. Who wants to start off Lysistrata's career as a loan shark?

Deep green walls and dark oak furnishings give this small room an air of gracious sophistication. A pretty elven teller smiles graciously as she conducts transactions with various customers, her hands nimbly counting out silver coins one moment, and filling out a promissory note in an elegant hand the next. You also see a small sign and a small window.
Obvious exits: east, out

So um who wants to buy my broadsword/plate for 39186000 so I can have an even 60.
You super wife gets to have half of that super bank account, riiiiight?

10-22-2003, 11:41 PM
I did...from like 9:05 to 9:40.
EDIT: While I'm waiting for my problem set answers to finish printing (21 pages) I dug through my logs to find my account after I sold the khopesh I bought from Tsin.

Good grief, stop all this whining henceforth Tayre. I've seen you about since you were a young whipper-snapper and I've never seen you lacking for gear. Poor is relative to what you need and what you have, and from what I've seen you have what you need and then some, so hush up.
In regards to people that are poor due to fines, screw'em I say. The last time I helped someone out with a hefty fine they proceeded to repeat the offense in less than a week's time. That made me feel pretty stupid and I don't like feeling stupid.
What's all this crap about being rich lately on these forums ? That thread about how to abuse game mechanics to become a millionaire is incredibly annoying. You want to be rich ? Role play and make some good friends. I've borrowed as much as 5 million at a pop before because I garnered some faith from people. It's not important how much you have in your bank account, or how many expensive items you have bought, when you have a wealth of friends to aid you if you see an opportunity to obtain something you actually need.
Friends are worth a lot more than anything else, they defy quantification. For all you posting your incredible bank accounts, I could probably borrow 100 mill if I went around sponging off of everyone I know that'd lend to me without question. Sorry, I know this post sounds a bit bitchy and I don't really intend that. I'm not trying to chastise anyone really, just spewing...
