TheRealEffekts: I mean, this EA Account is useless to me since I don't play any of their games anymore

TheRealEffekts: But it's worth $110 to me so...
bilbomy2: yes i understand
TheRealEffekts: May I log on the account atleast?

TheRealEffekts: Or is that too in-depth for you? :P
TheRealEffekts: Yeah

TheRealEffekts: So how do I know there's actually a 60 Rogue on the Account?

TheRealEffekts: Yeah, but that doesn't tell me nothing
TheRealEffekts: You could of got that off google.com

TheRealEffekts: Do you have a CC?
bilbomy2: yes
TheRealEffekts: Well could you put 1month on it?
TheRealEffekts: I guess it's fair
bilbomy2: no
TheRealEffekts: Allright then
TheRealEffekts: You think of a way to prove to me there's a Rogue on that account and let me know
bilbomy2: i already paid enough to that game and am on a tight budget, thats why i didn't just buy bf 2142 at a store
bilbomy2: k
bilbomy2: well you could trade for something else i have?
TheRealEffekts: I'd like the WoW Account.
bilbomy2: k lemme see if there is a way to prove it to u
TheRealEffekts: And better yet, what's a time-less WoW account worth to me? lol
bilbomy2: it has a lvl 60
bilbomy2: with good gear
TheRealEffekts: Except it means I have to spend another $50 just to activate it
bilbomy2: no 15$
TheRealEffekts: Neg, I have noe CC :P
TheRealEffekts: no*
bilbomy2: you just subscribe to the regular monthly fee
TheRealEffekts: I use Game Cards

bilbomy2: ?
TheRealEffekts: You don't own that account do you.
bilbomy2: i do
TheRealEffekts: No, I mean that picture is fake isn't it?
bilbomy2: no i took that 2 weeks ago when i tried to sell the account on ebay
TheRealEffekts: Well that gear you just sent me doesnt match the gear on the picture
TheRealEffekts: Insignia of the Alliance
TheRealEffekts: That's an alliance trinket
TheRealEffekts: The picture you sent me is a horde rogue
bilbomy2: yes
TheRealEffekts: Yes, and Horde Rogues can't get Alliance Trinkets
bilbomy2: huh
TheRealEffekts: Read what I just said
bilbomy2: well thats what i wrote down, 2 weeks ago
bilbomy2: maybe a misprint, or maybe i was being silly
TheRealEffekts: What?
TheRealEffekts: What are you on about?
bilbomy2: my account expired 2 weeks ago because i stop subscribing, so i wrote down all his info and took a scrren so i could sell the account on ebay
TheRealEffekts: Well the gear you just sent me, is not the same gear as seen in the picture you sent me
bilbomy2: and maybe i mixed up the alliance insignia with a horde one
TheRealEffekts: Have you even played WoW before?
bilbomy2: yes
bilbomy2: how do you think i got him to lvl 60
TheRealEffekts: Ok, what does BG stand for?
bilbomy2: battle grounds
TheRealEffekts: BF?
bilbomy2: dunno
TheRealEffekts: lol...
TheRealEffekts: Well, BF means Bloodfang and that Rogue in the picture has Bloodfang, I thought you played WoW?
bilbomy2: i did
TheRealEffekts: Tell me the truth, have you ever played WoW before?
TheRealEffekts: Well by all these questions it's tellin me you havn't
bilbomy2: i am being totally honest witth you here and you keep harrassing me
TheRealEffekts: I really don't care if you have or not
bilbomy2: i HAVE played wow, and i DID get this rogue to lvl 60
TheRealEffekts: Well you're not seeming legit to me my friend
bilbomy2: sorry if i come across that way, but the questions you are asking me are hard, since i don't use much slang
TheRealEffekts: Firstly, you say you have a WoW account, but I can't see the Rogue since it has no time, secondly, you send me a Picture or the Rogue and write out the gear, and they don't match, and thirdly you don't even know what most of the terms mean
TheRealEffekts: Well
TheRealEffekts: Could you tell me what Shoulders the Rogue is using?
bilbomy2: nope, just some misc green
TheRealEffekts: See...
TheRealEffekts: Mate i'm not dealing with you
bilbomy2: k
bilbomy2: cya
TheRealEffekts: Either tell me the truth or don't bother messaging me
bilbomy2: i have
TheRealEffekts: And i'm going to tell MarkeeDragon aswell
bilbomy2: k
TheRealEffekts: Goodluck trading that account by the way, it's going to be hard to convince people when you don't even know what the gear is...
bilbomy2: k well its to late now, as i don't want to subscribe just to get name of gear :\
TheRealEffekts: Well you say you leveled it to 60, so you should know what gear it has...
bilbomy2: really just a matter of time before someone trades ^^
TheRealEffekts: Obviously that picture isnt real
bilbomy2: the picture is real
TheRealEffekts: Ok well as we speak i'm posting this on Markeedragon
bilbomy2: and just because i play the game casually and don't remember the name of my gear, is no reason to call me a lier
bilbomy2: you hardcore gamers are rediculous
TheRealEffekts: It's every reason
TheRealEffekts: Mate, by the looks of your gear in that picture, you were a hardcore gamer.
bilbomy2: ? maybe my char is good but that desn't mean i am a hardcore gamer
TheRealEffekts: Yes it does
TheRealEffekts: Even if you were a hardcore gamer or not, you should atleast know the gear you have if you raided/farmed for it..
bilbomy2: ok well aparently u think i am a lier, nomatter what i say i can't change your mind so why talk :P
TheRealEffekts: Exactly

Heres some advice, if they ever tell you there is no time on there account just ask them to make a post on the world of warcraft forums using that character. =P it helps

Yeah that's not a bad tip, although it still doesn't tell you the gear that character has.
