Leaving The Game, Here Have My Gold.

A couple weeks back as I was levelling an alt through Hillsbrad, when a level 71 Deathknight sends me a message.

Hey, I’m leaving the game do you want my gold?

Never in all the years I’ve played has anyone ever given me gold!  In fact its usually me giving out the gold to such choice characters as Kirioth (I’m sure he’ll only but agree).  So you can imagine, when I received this message I was in a state of shock.

Then it struck me, this can’t be real.  Its clearly somebody taking the piss.  Hell, this is World of Warcraft.

I replied, saying I’d only be to happy to get hold of this money as it could be put to good use.  Alts don’t magically get flying you know, some poor fool has to pay for it.  The Deathknight then assured me he’d send all his Azerothian wealth to me over the mail system.  If I get the money it would be great, if not….its just another goon messing around, I’d just have to take it on the chin like any other hero.

The next day, I have this waiting for me:

Holy shit!  He actually sent me the money.  Now I’m in a total state of shock and awe.  A random player contacts me, sends me a large sum of gold and waves goodbye.  I’m not a rich man in game by anyone’s stretch of the imagination so this gold will help me out loads.

Has this happened to anyone else?  Share it with us in the comments if it has!

So to you Daplff, if your out there.
