Alrighty... is this a fake thingy?

Sat Jul 03, 2004 4:19 pm

I went to someones lookup and at the VERY TOP of the page there and a thing that said, "CONGRATS! You have found a baby paint brush, But your pet desides to donate it to the Money Tree. :(". NO!!! :cry:

I think that's a real RE. Kind of like the Advent Calender "You found a Rod of Supernova but suddenly the Pant Devil appears and takes it away".

What was that? I never noticed anything...

It's just a trick, it's not really a RE.

There's one EASY way to find out if it was a real RE or fake. What was the person's lookup? I'll look the person up. If the RE is there, its fake. If its not, its real. Easy as pie :)

I dont know what it was


Fiddedit: Easy on the smileys. Some people have slow connections.

That's a fake RE, if you press 'Back' on your browser until you reach the lookup, you will notice it's there again.

It's a trick, you can tell by the fact that they spelled decide wrong :roll:

That's a new one. It's certainly more original than the ones promoting guilds, shops, and whatnot.

I don't know, I've seen ones along that theme before. Kind of pointless, really.

those are pretty old. i used to have one in my shop but it was removed after i got a warning neomail from TNT. it was a joke but apparently there were players who thought otherwise or couldn't stand the idea of been fooled and reported my shop. actually, unless you are totally unfamiliar with random events, you should be able to find out if the RE is real or not by simply refreshing the page again. it was also since that neomail from TNT that i got so angry that i left my shop and userlookup bare, to save myself from further trouble.
