IM's during the Spitfire 2004 event
Danay [4:51 AM]: One of the great mysteries of Gemstone...why do we buy stuff...store it in our lockers or on locker characters....and then turn around a couple months later and buy yet more stuff?
Siara [4:52 AM]: ROFL! I've searched and searched.. but I've yet to find the shop that sells bigger lockers!
Danay [4:52 AM]: when you find it...TELL ME!
Danay [4:52 AM]: i swear....i could have two more levels just for the time I spend trying to sort out my junk...to make room for more junk
Siara [4:53 AM]: you should see in Siara's cloak.. it's a sickness, I tell ya!
Danay [4:54 AM]: oh man...it can't be any worse than danay's! my game window takes up most of my screen...and looking in my cloak fills up almost the entire screen! and i still haven't seen most of the shops yet..i'm currently unloading
Siara [4:54 AM]: what's worse??!!! That dag gone Moonwerks shop opened last night.. oh never show a moonshop to an Abbey member
Danay [4:54 AM]: ROFL!
Siara [4:55 AM]: I think this is planned... the higher ups want us all so encumbered that we waddle around and can't even hunt
Danay [4:55 AM]: you think that's bad? i haven't used a 4x longsword in YEARS...except for my fire flaring eonake one.....so what did I buy last night? A 4x longsword....it sure is pretty!
Siara [4:56 AM]: ROFL!!!!!! I'm so thankful that I have no need for weapons! So what do I do..? Have at least 75 pairs of fancy slippers
Danay [4:56 AM]: LOL!
Siara [4:57 AM]: two feet.. 150 slippers.. my math is way off
Danay [4:57 AM]: at least i've only purchased one dagger so far
Danay [4:58 AM]: oh...it even has a moon on it!
Siara [4:58 AM]: noooooo!
Danay [4:58 AM]: snickers
Siara [4:58 AM]: this is soo bad LOL and there's MORE to come??
Danay [4:58 AM]: LOOOK!
Danay [4:58 AM]: You remove a moon-engraved white ora dagger from in your purple greatcloak.
Siara [4:59 AM]: I missed that one!
Danay [4:59 AM]: shall i keep its whereabouts secret so you can't be tempted?
Danay [4:59 AM]: i also got a moon and star stole there and a moon and stars altar cloth
Siara [5:00 AM]: no you better tell me.. it's falling in that 'must have' list LOL
Danay [5:00 AM]: LOL! it's that big cleric shop in Banker's Square
Siara [5:00 AM]: noooooooooooooooo LOL.. er.. thanks?
Danay [5:00 AM]: hehehehe
Danay [5:01 AM]: hey....i have to make sure i'm in good company with the conspicuous consumption
Siara [5:01 AM]: ROFL, oh.. I'm sooo greatful
Danay [5:01 AM]: i also managed to get three new books and god knows what else to lug around with me so roa'ters and what all can do me in
Siara [5:02 AM]: oh yeah, I'm a walking target for vipers and boars now, they already love me coz I can't move.. I'm a real sitting target now
Danay [5:02 AM]: i haven't even seen all the shops yet...was just about to pull up the map someone made to see what i have missed...then saw you log on so decided to whine about my junk to you
Siara [5:03 AM]: and fish! Are you walking around with your fishbowl yet?? Now that was just plain sick for that merchant to do
Danay [5:03 AM]: ROFL! I have not bought a fish! [struts]
Siara [5:04 AM]: I'm so proud of you!
Danay [5:04 AM]: (of course, the reason I haven't bought any is because I have a feesh from the Artisan's Faire two years ago and a firefly from this Spitfire)
Siara [5:04 AM]: ROFL!!!!!
Siara [5:04 AM]: you are sick.. gods loves ya!LOL
Danay [5:04 AM]: you just can't survive without a firefly in a tube ya know!
Siara [5:05 AM]: I had the hardest time trying to decide on fish or fireflies.. what's a girl to do?
Danay [5:05 AM]: laugh!
Siara [5:06 AM]: I got.. one fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish... took me 3 hours to get that damn red fish too!
Danay [5:06 AM]: LAUGH!
Danay [5:07 AM]: oh...and we haven't even mentioned treasure hunting so far.....let's see....50K later and I have a nice collection of icky old footwear, pieces of driftwood and a few oddly shaped gems
Danay [5:07 AM]: oh...and two skulls
Siara [5:07 AM]: and we won't mention 4 hours yesterday playing tiles.. no no, we aren't even saying a word
Danay [5:08 AM]: oh tiles were good to me! I was up 30K! er...but then I went treasure hunting.....
Siara [5:08 AM]: should I tell you about the mystery slippers and boots? no, I won't do that to you
Danay [5:08 AM]: ROFL! I somehow managed to keep myself to only 30K on those
Danay [5:09 AM]: that was a truly EVIL shop
Siara [5:09 AM]: oh yeah! I've got a macro set.. BUY SLIPPER
Danay [5:09 AM]: laugh!
Danay [5:09 AM]: i bet you now have a slipper for every conceivable occasion right?
Siara [5:10 AM]: well, it was bad enough to begin with.. and then there's shops with gotta haves.. so the slipper bin only added to it
Siara [5:10 AM]: ummmmmm... yeah!
Siara [5:11 AM]: and gowns.. there's a wagon full of them.. they might as well just toss that whole wagon in my locker
