Sorry I ment to indicate that 6 months after one has hoarded those deeds hoping to sell them for profit. If one really thinks that 2 mil is cheap for these deeds buy them and attempt to corner the market but you are not going to get the vast majority of players buying them regardless of the price.

I found them for 2.5 mil on ATL. I already had 10 from the turn in, and I bought and traded for 20 more. I always wanted a bless deed before insurance ever started, and saved all my newbied items.

I have found that blessing a few items, like Gladiators collar and armor of fortune, and then wearing leggings of embers, and the samurai helm, and using the blessed undead slayer sword... well its just fun to run around in a really decent blessed suit, for training or farming.

Im saving the rest, they will eventually, possibly be worth something, or good for trade in points... lol

I never said they should wipe 5 days of play from everyone
Ah, sorry, then. I know the "5 day wipe" thing WAS brought up, and I am just vehemently opposed to that. Sorry if I assumed or implied that YOU had said it if you didn't.

i said they should wipe bless deeds from everyone, maybe replace them with something else, even if they were ill gotten.
In this (altering bless deeds themselves in any way), I haven't enough experience (or stake in) to meaningfully comment. So, I will leave THAT part of the conversation to others more knowledgeable or experienced.

Thats okay Kimmy... its collateral damage hehe :)

I don't mind if my persona is completely shattered at the end of it all, but theres one thing I know for sure :

when you see it, you shall *cough* bricks !!!

You see I'm not accusing anyone... but I did not spawn on the last rain... I worked for big companies before and a stunt like this is COMMONPLACE everywhere people have companies too big with too many communication channels.

I seen people have TV for free, internet for free, cell phone stuff for free. As soon as there is a possible loophole someone cracks it and to my surprise the companies have a "loss" category on their budget... so they just declare this money lost and go on with their lives.

Now I'm talking about a BIG a GREAT company that has the intelligence, the ressources and manpower to fix the issue.

Imagine now UO... you'd be kidding yourself not to consider the possibility that not everyone is clean as they say.

After all, isn't it a bit pretentious to say that you know them enough to know it to be false ? We've been knowing noone exept Grim and Messana, and even... do we really know them ? who was in charge to program the cleanup ?

Major fail, no accountability, no apology... just like at my job...

Seems another player bought 10 for 10m on another post....think id buy em at 1m a throw too....LOL...

JUST GLAD I GOT RID OF A DOZEN at 8m a pop at the rares fest when the cleanup first started...LOL

Hopes for at least a Phase2 for the reminder of the points....maybe the devs can redeem themselves for the balls up they made and give us some really nice collectables in phase 2...

Now-a-days that is the best policy. Turn all the any stuff, stuff that will have value at next publish... into gold ASAP. Sell all the new items that day ASAP.

Wait 2 weeks... and buy back what you like.

Raven, you now understand how it works...

and how its SO convenient that every addition of the game enhances this behavior... even EM events (oh the shame)

they could have some astroturfing in there and nobody would be the wiser...

I hope Raven because of your great consciousness you chose not to participate in this madness...

The price problem isn't necessarily supply, it could very well be demand.

If players didn't really want or need the bless deeds, then it really doesn't matter how many there are in the world. The lack of demand would cause prices to fall.

You made a bad assumption. People posted bless deeds were the best thing to spend points on, NOT that they would want to buy them from other players.

The object of the event was to remove items from the world, not transform your junk into valuable items to resell. You made that assumption, not the developers.

So the developers accomplished exactly what they wanted to do. :)
Well in most cases. But in this case there was a way to generate endless points and get all the deeds you could muster.

To me that is supply problem. Demand was filled no matter how weak or how strong. It was filled. Now you have people just trying to get a mill or 2 for something the got from free points.

And the object was to remove things from the game and give you something of a value. Either Value or gold or in USE. Either way Im right.

And the developors did make the assumption to giv us something we could use or sell. If they didnt, why are the rewards not a handful of regs?

I already did. Im guilty of selling my stuff for before the publish. I learned to turn into gold before crap happens.

Skimmed this thread, but just wanted to say gold is far less valuable than most of the other turn-in items when acquiring points, even without exploits. Gold is worth 0.01 points per, which means to get 100 points from gold you have to turn in 10,000 gold. There are tons of ways to farm points which are faster than turning in gold, so all of the arguments about bless deeds not being worth the gold are sorta negligible to me because gold isn't the most worthwhile "currency." Like I mean a rope from a MIB is 1,600 points alone ($160k). Don't be surprised if you see a full-blessed fisher sail by the next time you're on the high seas ;P.
