I had a random player give me 10k gold
he was just walking on the road in duskwood and I happen to pass by him
I then later learn he is one of those people who have gold cap on multiable characters and was probably just unloading some of it.
This is probably in the same kinds of fetishes as those individuals who like to be mocked for having small-sized particularities about their you know whats. Some people get off on being the subject of mockery, or being utilised.
You’ll know whether it was this or a genuine charitable act if they contact you again and you suggest to them that you’re thankful for the gold, because it means you no longer have to spend hours on WoW farming gold, so you can spend time bonking your girlfriend (be sure to make it clear you’re implying you’re male).
These types seem happy to acquiesce so long as they believe you’re a character from “mean girls” and they’re the “token dork” who you’re exploiting.
5k gold is rookie numbers. I’d give every last coin of gold to my queen. Every. Last. One. On literally every single character. I’m not just an open book, I’m an open wallet. Ka-ching.
