Great post! +rep

[criss angel]

I just have to try this

[bassman]

Nice but when they are guessing you and you go to impersonate one of there friends make sure they arent online. You can do this by going to the who list and typing in their name to see if their online.

lol.. just earned 50g trying this! its damn awsome! +rep

Great scam, I never thought of doing this. To do the best and most secure impersonation do a /friend of the players name they guessed and make sure they are not online, and to type in all lower capitalization with moderate punctuation so you can try to fit their typing the best.

Wow... I love this scam. I've made like 20g in a week doing it 5 minutes each day. Another great thing is I haven't even gotten a warning. +Rep.
Just awesome.

EDIT: damn i cant give you rep for some reason.
Sorry!

[ayadew]

I'll try it for sure, just have to grind my manipulation skill to 300..

Tired this out myself now, just for fun. Most ppl didnt answere.
Two did:
First one said somthing like this:
u got 2 more replies to tell me who u are before I ignore u, then he ignored me, but talked to me later.
And ended up with:
Can u lend me some gold?
He: "pffft, im poor, go grinding with ur alt instead :P"

Other char said something like:
I cant guess, and didnt reply anymore..

I came to think of it, if i chose one of his friends, who are high lvl, it would be more easy to transfer the money between main and alt instead of contacting a friend to loan wouldnt it?

Sweet I made 60g off this, most of the time people would ask me to relog onto that so called main character, and i couldnt do that. Some people were cheap. But i said

ME: "Hey whats up "
THEM: "Hello?"
ME: "Guess who! Hint hint guild!"
THEM: "Uh..idk"
ME: "C'mon it's so easy, starts with A
Them: "Oh Albon (Or some random name that starts with A)"
ME: "Woot you got it!, Anyways I wanted to make a Alchemst for the guild"
THEM: "Oh cool"
Me: "Could you send me like 30g, so I could get mats and everything to get this started, I'll pay you back ASAP"
THEM: "Sure, I'll send it to you"
ME: "Thanks! By the way I found this cool leveling guide so I'll be a high level Alchemest in no time!"
THEM: "Sweet"
ME: "Okay thanks again, see ya"

Then if your lucky they will let you into the guild and you can ask all the guildies for gold. But the guy I was pretending to be Logged in LOL everyone was like ???? So I just mailed my altt the gold and deleted the character.

Thanks for the guide!
