Public Service WarningFollow

I shoudlnt be called greedy for what Im about to say, but I would NEVER lend anyone my stuff..... I hate to say it, bro but you got screwed. I dont expect it coming back either.

I am sorry, but I earned all my gear, and I have every right to keep it or trade it, but I prefer my armor be somewhere where I know where it is... The first time I heard someone losing their stuff ages ago cause they let someone "borrow" it lead me to think that no one but my bf on this server (who happens to play right next to me IRL) can be trusted. I still lead that belief even now. I'll help you get what you want, but if you ever ask me to borrow my items, I'll say no.

Aww, that sucks Jevot. ; ;
He will get what's coming to him, somehow he'll be walknig down a road when a pack of mangey wolves will jump out and maul him to death. Thanks for the warning though, and Shadowtaru stfu. She's here warning us of a little *****, and the last thing she needs is some asshat saying, "You're screwed."

Yeah I realize how stupid I was, but I have gotten in the habbit of being kind like that to people, if my whitemage didn't have a staff, I'd lend him my appolo staff for the party. If my ninja was running low on shihei I'd make em for him. etc.

so when taruk begged to let him use my cloak to Power Level a friend I said ok.

I really like being nice like that, I wish I still could, but now I'm too scared, that much gil takes me weeks to get back.

and again, I know it's my fault, just warning others to watch out for that guy and the astral rings he baught with the leftovers from selling my cloak, and poweleveling his leathercrafting.

In regards to the delivery box thing, I called a GM, they said that they couldn't get it back but that he did not send it to me.

best of luck.

Hello Suzahara here, i would like to take a moment to say a few things to jevot, it sucks what happened to you, i personaly know Taruk and he WAS in my linkshell ( windurst cavalry ). after the LS leader ( Emurei ) had a few words with him, the decision among the LS was to ask him to leave our ranks, we did not want to have a person that we could not trust in our linkshell.

please do now think down on the rest of us for the actions of one player, and im sorry that you are stolen from, all i can say is, keep your chin up, and try to move on. we tried to get him to return the item. but the story he was feeding us was a little farfetched.

anyways, this whole incident led to another discussion that came up with another player who is friends with Taruk his name is Tweek. we were discussing how if people you know trust you with an item of high value, then you should return it. was the item that you stole worth loosing yuour friends, and tarnishing your reputation? anyways i talked about how a friend of mines let me borrow his harness and kraken club to try out. i used them for a day or so, then gave them back per his request, and due to the fact that i did not violate his trust in me, i am now able to borrow gear from him, and vise versa.

the sad thing is that Taruk was in our ls, he was part of our family... its a sad thing to see that someone like that was among us... i dont like to be paranoid that i cant loan out some of my items to my fellow Ls members. anyways, now im rambling, again, im sorry for your loss, and i hope that you can move past all this.

I know Taruk, I know Jevot. And last I remember there was no proof? Is there proof now??

I'm done.

Actually, memory cards have nothing to do with the PS2 version. Everything runs off of the HDD. I smell an excuse...

{Huh!?}

Ohhhh ok i just seen this you were all in the palace .... tell your guests to stop harassing my friend lol :p. Sadly though i diden't see the spam from Jevot and I wasnt attacking Taruk in anyway in the post i first made i was just telling Crayola why he was ejected from our ls. It wasnt because we had hard evidence but his story seemed faulty and un-trustworthy.

It wasnt one single person that did boot him it was a ls decission, and we did give him time to either give it back or stick to one story. We honestly did give him a chance, and I personally have no problems with Taruk. It's just the ls as a whole felt him to be untrustworthy not in the fact that he may of stole an item, but the fact that he coulden't keep one story about it.

I appologize for disturbing the wedding, when I realized what was happening I did my best not to disturb things and simply beg Taruk my daily begging for him to give it back.

I wouldn't bother him so much, expecpt that others have seen him confess, A GM said that he had it, and that he suddenly had a good bit of money, enough to get Astral Rings, and level his leathercraft, where as when I met him he was quite poor.

So either he's a braggart, a liar, the GM's have their heads up their asses, and he's a gil buyer, or he owes me that cloak back.

I am sorry I harmed the event though, as I said I only stayed after I realized what was happening to answer some questions, and to beg the person who stole from me to give it back.

If GM's dont keep a delivery box log how do they know whos buying gil .... lol they obviously know when large amounts of gil are being sent through the delivery box system. Therefore they have a log of whats being sent.

On of my LS members had sent a pair of leaping boots from his mule to his main character.

When he checked his main character, it wasn't there, and then checked his mule, and it wasn't in the send box.

He contacted a GM, and they said it could take a couple days for stuff to go through. A couple hours later, no boots, and he was really upset, bugged the GMs a lot, and they were able to "push it through"

Take it for what it's worth, but GMs more than likely have the ability to check delivery/send boxes, and have logs to check for any suspicious activity - like the gil multiplication glitch a while back, I thought accounts were banned for exploiting the glitch, how else would you catch those people unless you had logs?

I think this subject should just be left to die. Jevot, I'm sorry to hear that you lost your cape, but honestly there's no way to know what really happened in regard to that. We've heard your side of the story and some of us have heard Taruk's side of the story. There really isn't anything else that can be done here other than to learn from this situation. If what you said is true, then I sincerely hope that you are able to get your property returned to you someday or at the very least are given some sort of compensation.

This is one of the risks in trusting people in a virtual world as there is nothing to really hold a person accountable other than their word and their own sense of integrity. Let's all learn from this and move on.
