I dont want to be kicking you when you are down so to speak, and you do have my sympathy for your losses, but one minute you are saying you did not invest but were playing a game and having fun and the next you hoped for a better return on your investment.
I know its also not really fair to point to your tracker but you favourite mob is atrox, you craft lvl2's that you pay markup on the materials, at a rate you have to TT the end result and you mine with big amps with markup on a taxed area with low markup ores, you then get 60% TT return and nowhere did you think that maybe you should try something differently? Your really told yourself, without having any evidence to back this up, that you would magically get your losses back and a return on your investment if you just kept on doing the same thing over and over despite bad results?
now i am not some uber player, but i tried 1k HP mobs with a 12K bankroll and it did not go well, the mobs i tried it on did have markup loot, but after losing half that bankroll for the 2nd or 3rd time i stopped doing this and changed how i played. And i wasnt getting 60% return all the time for this to happen, my returns were higher.
To me it really looks like you were chasing a big hof/ath without sufficient bankroll or the understanding of the risks involved.
Yeah, I see what you are saying. Investing either way is still an investment. Safely buying good UL stuff that can be resold is one way to invest, and playing stupidly like I did cuz it is fun is another way. Either way is an investment, mine was just way more risky All I said all along is that I can't play the game they way that it is fun to ME so I should leave. I wasn't asking for 90% returns, but shit, I at least thought I would have been able to retain a growing ped card because of the sheer amount I deposit, but my total tt of items has stayed the same for a year, DESPITE adding 180,000 ped to it in the last year, and up until two days ago, depositing regularly. That is the part I dont get, and that is the reason feel like stopping. No hard feelings about it. I could limit myself and not lose as much and yes it would be easier to afford, or I could keep playing the way I did when it WAS fun and when I DIDNT care about the money, but unfortunatley, neither of those options excite me anymore because I now know what I know.
