i guess im wrong for trying to make money just off my gaming. i guess im wrong for trying to blame my problem on everything when its really just myself, just to add schizo effective isnt just schizophrenia its schizophrenia/bi polar. i guess im wrong for even mentioning anything on my mind and "poisoning the community". but hey its all good at the end of the day i know who i can lean on and i know who i can go to when i have my problems and trust me its not this site or you guys. its my father ABBA.
well i started late cause i didnt think i could make a profit flipping low end items so i waited till i hit atleast the 1b mark to start flipping. i mean ive done it before started with 100k and made 100m by the end of the day but it just took too much work. i could just go back to farming and make my gold that way cause i get about 1-3 legs every 30 minutes and i just recently found this item and my bro found a tals chest he sold for 1b also since ive mastered the art of farming. ya i play video games for enjoyment also but d3 is getting old for me and the only thing that was motivating me was the money and the fact that im very good at dueling and i hoped to one day be one of the top pvp players and possibly get sponsored and what not like a real pro gamer. yall can say o just get a job get a job ya dude cause you think its sooooo easy for me hah. if you lived the life i lived you would have probably blown your brains out. try being schizo effective, try being homeless and hearing voices and hallucinating at night and only getting 1 hour at the most of sleep on the streets, try going to prison that your first night you got on the main unit you had 3 people in your room in the middle of the night with a shank to your throat or have a bunch of chicos try to kill you on the rec yard. or maybe try living poor and only being able to eat 1 meal a day. or better yet live with a very bad mental illness that takes control of you and then tell me how you made it. ya i know the real world but yall clearly dont, if i had a very easy sheltered life with many opportunities and open doors like most of you probably do then trust me i wouldnt talk down on people that have it rough or say your just a bum cause your not doing anything for yourself. nah cause i know first hand that its hard for some of us to do anything for ourselves. all i have is gaming and expertise in computers and yall clearly have destroyed my love for both.
yep pretty hard to believe isnt it? i spent 4 yrs and 3 months of my life in prison and lost alot of my gaming skill and just recently found out im schizo effective. so ive been out now since 2009 and ive been trying to get back into the gaming arena and i chose this game because i knew it would become very competitive and i could make cash if i succeeded. like i said first online rpg and challenge was accepted.
but anyways i can tell this is going no where and i dont want to get the mods angry so yall have a good day.
If you are serious about gaming for money then why would you pick a (largely) single-player action RPG? Why wouldn't you pick up a tournament/competition style game like League of Legends, Starcraft 2, Halo, CS, etc...? You were trying to make D3 into something it was NEVER intended to be in the first place.
back in the day with ra3/cpma, quake 3 arena mods, i was a god. i had any where from 60%-100% accuracy online with latency in ALL WEAPONS. i would take on entire clans by myself and win. i was going to go to quake con but i went to prison, made some bad decisions. yes d3 could become very competitive when pvp comes out but i dont have the means for money to play against the pay to win "top players". ive beaten dh's, wd's, wiz, and monks with 2b items in every slot, just cant beat invulnerable barbs, in a 50m set or less. so ya i would like to compete in d3 but like i said i dont have enough gold earned or the money to buy it. i am a good gamer trust me ive been doing this since i was 4 yrs old and im hooked. i was getting hole in 1's in golf games when i was like 6 yrs old on very hard maps, i beat ff7 in 18-20 hours when i was like 11 yrs old, i also beat tekken tag 1 in 2 minutes 50 seconds play time on normal mode all perfects. so ya i am a real gamer trust me.
edit: also unlocked every single cheat code in golden eye 007 n64 when it first came out. i also used to get nothing but head shots in the original cs with 250 ping, dial up, and nothing but the glock and it was my FIRST fps.
or how about the original myst? could you even beat that now? i did when i was like 10 yrs old.
and just to let you know i never spent more then 150 hours on ANY game except quake 3 and cs. the only reason why i did with diablo is because i hoped to make money because i heard so many success stories of people making over $10k usd off of it. well anyways im still going to do what i planned on doing in the first place getting my 1-2b item to drop, accomplished, and use that gold to flip the ah, made 40m off 1 item just now, and putting all the gold im going to flip into a pvp set so i can own you noobs and make REAL MONEY
and just to let you know this is my first online rpg the only real rpg i ever played was ff7
Also, your numbers are pure fantasy. A 4cc mempo has never been worth $500. 6cc ones go for 90-120.
what is 2000 x .25? 500? did i calculate that wrong? thats 2k x 1m = 2b = $500
and yes people were paying that much for gold cause like i said they believed gold farmers to be shady business or did not want to get caught doing so to get their accounts banned.
well for 1 im mentally ill and cant get or keep a job because of its severity and no its not just about hoping for a few hundred bucks i was going to put that gold into flipping shit on the ah and making a couple thousand because ive studied the ah enough to be able to do so like many others have. please tell me of one single player game, or game specifically and only against AI, youve played for more then 1000 hours. no one does that unless they are crazier then me.
I forgot for a moment that people are still interested in profiting off a video game that is supposed to be about fun and entertainment.
ya bro games are supposed to be fun and entertaining. but like i said this game is NOT FUN after 1600 hours played its the same old thing over and over and over. quake 3 arena probably got 1k+ hours out of me BECAUSE THAT GAME WAS ACTUALLY FUN. the only reason why i put in 1600+ hours into this was because it is a video game, i love video games, and i could actually profit money wise off of it. if i knew i was never going to make a penny off this game i wouldnt have put in more then 100+ hours, probably no more then 40 hours because this game is so boring and it only takes about 25-35 hours to beat.
so you are telling me doing the same thing over and over and over only to be able to do it on a harder difficulty and faster is something worth doing after 1600+ hours put in? please dude thats dumb as hell YOU ARE PLAYING AGAINST BOTS not real life people so how do you get ANY kind of satisfaction out of that?
you know what dont even answer that i dont even want to know. im just going to go ahead and uninstall and wait for the itemization patch and play for about a month and uninstall again im done with this rodeo show.
if i had the right mind, and the money, i would buy billions of gold off rmah right now and buy every single cc mempo off gold ah then post them all on rmah @ $250 a piece.
Gold hasn't been worth 25 cents a mill in months, because most of the gold bought was on third party sites for 4 cents. You have to realize, ITEMS keep their value, gold doesn't because every day people are amassing more and more gold. If you want more for it, sell it on the rmah, and then buy gold with the money.
well heres the thing about selling it on rmah for more then gold ITS IMPOSSIBLE. only a moron would pay $250 for an item when all they have to do now is buy 2b gold off rmah for $75 and buy that same item off the gold ah.
true enough gold farmers were selling gold way cheaper but the thing about that is people believed them to be shady business and would rather buy the gold off rmah so they wouldnt get scammed/banned. so now this is just ridiculous.
so in all actuality if i wanted to get what my item was worth, the day before patch, i would have to wait till everyone got on board and took all similar items off the gold ah then i would have to post it on the forums for 13.3b and hope that i count all numbers correctly in the trade window.
so all in all i just sold a $500 item for $75 because just a few days ago gold was .25 cents per mil and i read the patch notes that gold is sold by 10x mil in the rmah not that the gold @ 10x mil is worth about the same as 1x mil before. if i would have known this i would have kept my item. ty blizz for screwing me over once again.
so i finally get a 1b+ item last night, 4cc 199 str 9% ias mempo, and i was so happy cause it felt like i hit the jack pot! then i checked rmah to see how much irl $ my gold was worth and reality set in.... 2b gold went from being worth $500 to $75 over night? are you kidding me? so now after 1600 hours played and finally getting my 1b+ item it doesnt feel rewarding at all.... im actually enraged! looks like i wont be putting in another 250+ hours and ill just be casually playing this every now and then cause really to me there is no point in fighting the same monsters over the same acts in the same exact areas over and over and over its pretty boring and not rewarding at all anymore. damn i feel bad for these guys that put in hundreds and thousands of dollars into rmah/gear just to see it worth nothing over night. pretty fucked up if you ask me!
the whole reason why i even put in all this time into this game was because there was money involved. the only game ive played besides this that ive put in 100+ hours into was quake 3 arena because that game was actually fun and there were real pros playing it. but this game hah i wont put in no more then another 100 hours because i see no point in doing anymore then that anymore.
