Have you ever wondered what happens to all the stuff people have when they never come back to play VMK? For instance, what about all those who bought green flips or had many red crates in their inventory...and then they just stopped playing. What happens to that rare stuff? Did they give them away first before they stopped? Or are all those prized items dormant in someone's account just waiting to be shown again? I wish I could get to all those green flips and rare items that are just sitting unused in someone's inactive account...

Just a thought...


Peace!

Any thoughts?

Yeah that would be cool maybe Staff could get into them and give them out as prizes for quests or something! :)

I just think it sits in their account. Maybe they only play over the summer or something like that.

It would be nice of people that are leaving VMK to give away their things so it doesn't go to waste. They wouldn't be using them again, anyways.

That would be pretty coolio if staff could get the stuff and hand it out as prizes. LOL. But I'm pretty sure their stuff just stays in their room/account, but that's just what I think, I'm not really sure.

None of these items exist!

They don't go anywhere because they are not real. They are all computer programming. If the player is banned (or leaves), all the items connected to that player just simply never appear on a screen again because the programming of the character is not used again.

There is nothing to pass on or reuse because they don't really exist, and the programmers working on the game can "make" as many of these items as they want.

That's why buying these things with real money on auction sites is easily the dumbest thing anyone can do.

It seems you have a problem with selling virtual items. I do not disagree with you. Your point is very well taken. (See the ebay thread...)

I actually can think of a few other things in life that can constitute as being even more dumb than buying pixels online. :) Like my friend who lost quite a bit of hair from not wearing his helmet while biking! Road Rash! Ouch! Always wear your helmet while on your bike!

I was just lamenting the fact that there are accounts that lie dormant with all those rare items and how I would love to just get a hold of them so that I can use them to trade with. It is a shame that those rare items go to waste and can not be enjoyed by those of us who do play VMK on a daily basis. (VMK is life!)Granted, the programmers can whip up a ton of green flips if they want to...but that does not mean they will or that I will be able to get one.

Anyways, thanks for your opinions! I respect that!

Peace!
