Hamish no I did not pay for the accounts, I think anyone who pays real money for gold/items is retarded, but I'll happily sell my account to those same retards
I believe over the 2 accounts I had somewhere in the vicinity of 250-300 days played. Yes you read that right, DAYS, as in 24 hour days.
About a 10c per hour "job" lol, but I did it for the fun of it not to make any money, just both times I quit I decided to sell the accounts to prevent me from going back to the game! Still the best game I have ever played though....and also the worst, too addictive.
