trading post: please explain?

Wed Nov 02, 2005 3:14 am

I know this is probably the most stupid question in the world:

But why, all of a sudden, do people write "FREEEEE!" in their wishlist on the trading post? Really, what do they mean? I can't see how anyone would be giving away half the things people write-off as "free", so it doesn't make sense, so I'd love to know what "free" really means in the TP :)

Thanks!

(hahaha even long-time players become a newbie again)

That just means they're giving it away for nothing - dung, worthless plushies, et cetera.

except sometimes they are not, and reject your offers of useless items :(

I have never seen this xP

But until we get a better explanation, let us just assume that they put "free!" there for fun and somehow find it entertaining to reject offer after offer.

Hahaha exactly - that's why I wonder what "free" really means in the TP. It's weird how it's started all of a sudden too. Sweeping craze.

Good theory! I think we'll stick to that until someone really does know.

It's a great way to fish for marks(IE look for people to try and scam)
