UO Second Age

Is it legal to offer money for in game items?

I know currently that it says that you can make donations but there are no "rewards". In the future is there talk about adding rewards such as in game gold, regs, name change, beard dyes.... anything along those lines? I understand keeping the feeling of osi but could the "rewards" be items you can get in so you dont ruin that feel.

i dont think that you will ever be able to buy rewards from the staff directly.
it would do much to undermine the integrity and unbiasedness of staff and server.

ya dont make it so if you donate you get items or gold thatd be gay you just give 20 bills n ur guys done that would suck for the rest of us who actually trained our guys

As much as I don't care to buy items/gold for real life money (as all of it are just pixels)... if he decides to do this who are you to judge him?

Maybe its more worthwhile to him to spend $10-$20 and get 2+ million gold. Instead of investing all the time that is needed to make that money. I know during tax season I would rather buy gold than spend the hours it takes to make it. I can do 1 tax return that takes me 30 minutes to 1 hour and easily make $50+. So when you look at your time spent/money made... it might be worth it to him.

Lets keep in mind that they don't get paid for this either.

Perhaps a specific rare for a $20/whatever donation would be worth it. Nothing currently on the trophy rare list, but nothing too special.

I'm sure there's bandwidth to pay, etc.

I am pretty sure Derrick stated that he would never offer rewards for cash.

can someone answer the question if I can ofer someone money for gold or a house.

I dont feel its necesasry to expalin why but I have limited time to play this game and I want to maximize my time playing. If you dont like it then dont sell me anything.

I haven't seen anyone doing this so far. At the rate that my iron/colored ingots are selling it sure is sounding tempting to just bite the bullet and buy UO gold.

also the rewards could be in game items such as regs, name change, house deed, etc........ Im not saying a blessed neon robe or anything that changes the game but it would be nice be able to buy items that anyone can obtain but its just a suggestion.

I really am more interested in offering people money to buy an item to get up and running.

Derrick wrote:A lot of shards to do this, but we are sworn not to ever allow this. We want this to be a free shard where everyone can can be on equal footing regardless of their ability to pay.

but can I offer other players money for there gold or items?

He's looking to offer other players for their gold in RL money. Not from the shard directly necessarily.

We won't interfere with anything players negotiate between themselves, but please don't advertise this on forums.
