Who would like a free Angel of Protection?

edited December 2014 in General Discussion (PC)
So I usually like to keep all the loot and my earnings to myself while not expecting anything from others. So I decided why not give something back for once and since I have a lot of leadership toons, my first one having over 490 ardent coins, I'll start off by giving away an angel for a little extra christmas spirit.

I have one request: That the winner posts in the forum that they have received the item just to show that I am trustworthy if I ever want to do something similar. Though that is something I'm unsure about since I dislike negative traits some people have.

Winners will be randomly chosen via the poll. Sent a PM and also have their forum name in this post. They will be told to send me a PM with the @handle they want the angel sent to.

Edit: Was meant to have the 2nd option read, "No thanks" to make it sound polite, but oh well.

Grats to greatweaponarmy for winning, please check your forum PM so that I can deliver your angel.

    Great offer to people. Glad to see someone do it. I'll pass on it as I wouldn't actually use it, but cool to offer to people.

    Thanks, that's nice of you to do so. I was actually wondering whether to have another offer with 3 options, "yes", "yes but i won't make use of it", and "no thanks". I figured I wanted to make the most of my AD instead for 2x rp instead so opted for the angel instead. If I do the 3 options in future, you'd find out why, but for this, the 2 options shall do ^_^

    Anyway, I can afford not to be selfish for once :P (although it's less being selfishand more keeping to himself while trying not to be a burden in any way such as having my own profession tools rather than ask the guild to make me them)

    Happy Christmas, and very kind of you.

    And yes please. Since I've just absolutely bankrupted myself with my offhand.
    No idea what my toon is now.

    I voted yes -- I'm probably several months of invoking away from getting mine, and I could use it to promote a future foundry quest development contest. :cool:

    It is nice but I voted no because I already got a few of these angels myself from playing for more than a year.

    I would have voted "yes" if the gift was RP enough to make an artifact equipment legendary. Everything doesn't seem to have much value in the game now. ;(

    Yes, just because I'm more greedy than Smaug and Lostmauth together, even though @frishter hates me ;(

    Hm, I believe these kind of threads were removed in the past? I wish there were more of players sponsored contests/give aways on forums though.

    As for the thread itself, neither I like Celestia and all it's beings nor I want one as an active bonus :P

    I think I underestimate your lust for gold/astral diamonds/estate sometimes.

    BTW, the 80% horse from 270 days of praying sells for more than the angel from 360 days of praying.

    For those who are planning on praying for a year to get the angel, it may not be a good idea since by the time when you pray long enough, you may be able to buy the angel for 100k or less.

    Unfortunately I'm too greedy for that giveaway :P. At least for the moment!

    Lies, frish has nuh hate <3. Though of course I do appreciate those that don't need or want to use it to pass it to someone who can make better use of it :)

    Not sure, not really seen them. If they're not allowed, that is kind of sad. Positivity should be encouraged in an all too dark place. Which probably sounds ironic and hypocritical, but my postings here are pretty much my only negativity and I do it to strive for the greater good, for things to be better or fairer.

    However we'll see how it goes. I was planning on a week poll, but it's 3 days until Christmas so it's going to e a short one!

    Those will go down once devs start that 80% mounts give away

    Hey, don't blame me, it's dev's fault, perhaps they add like 300 artifact items in the next mod and we will need like 300m so the angel adds a bit of AD. -.-

    Now now, that wouldn't be fair now would it ):

    If you want I can give you a diamond! *Hides the fact that it's a blue faceted diamond piece of junk*. Trolled some members of my guild by giving those away since last year ^_^

    I'm a newbie and I'm sure as heck not going to pass up a chance on a nice free companion. Would be great for my tank. "Leadership army." Heh. I should invest in some more character slots I guess. I only have 4 now but I am getting leadership up there on all of them since people always tell me it's the best way to make AD. Feels awesome when you get that Protect the Diamond Shipment task and wake up with 3k more AD the next morning. I can only imagine how great that feels with an army.

    That's kewl of ya frishter. i'll pass on a free gift. I too have a 'leadership army' as many call it, but I actually invest into and play mine. Have a few angels myself, but mostly I opted for the various potions. If only they would update ardent/celestial/tradebar markets with more variety. Neways, always good to see a player being generous to others. Much respect. :)

    Yes it would be good if they did. They didn't even add a SW weapon transmute. Also the names frishter only because frish was already taken ):, though I don't mind it's just a little note. FRISH isn't really a great name considering where I took it from... Thanks for the nice words :D.

    I have 2 accounts, 1 with my main with 8 characters that I've played on. And one with 20 characters that is used for storage (which I need a ridiculous amount) and then moved onto making AD (fuelled from my main account). Since I saw the amount we could farm in mod 2 fall, I felt like this was the step I had to take and there's just so much you can spend AD on, it's insane. Only in recent times with 2x rp events am I reaping the rewards more, though I have had AD held up in investements which in some cases failed, or kept onto them too long. However with 28 leadership toons, 10m AD a month is a nice amount while investing in RP should also net me enough to be very comfortable. Maybe I'll still wait for some things to be cost effective though. I don't like wasting resources unnecessarily.

    Leadership does take a looooong time to max, but it pays off fast once it does. Good luck :)

    Player giveaways have always been allowed on the forums as long as they are all inclusive and do not request personal information; this giveaway is well within the rules.

    The ones that get closed either have an entrance fee (red flag for a scam risk), ask for real life personal information including e-mail addresses/third party website sign ups or have rules which prevent all players from joining.

    I kid you not we had a giveaway try to say Female Players Only. And while some people might not feel that is wrong just imagine the sexism accusations which would come from male players only or white players only giveaways... :p
    And if you allow female players only then you can not disallow the others.


    However whenever a person violates the give-away rules they always have an opportunity to adjust their rulings to make it a fair and all inclusive experience if they desire.

    Good Luck Everybody!

    Nice move and in the actual spirit of the season.... refreshing, not to say surprising (Unfortunately)

    Maybe at some point I'll be in the position to do something likewise but the leadership on my 8 toons is only just starting to get high enough to be useful (17+), but they are finally all LVL 60 and mostly over 10k GS (All bar the warlock) so far. Never could just leave a toon as a farm or for storage, once created, I gotta play it LOL

    I wouldnt mind getting one, I missed my original one. Played the game for well over 8 months, nearly got the angel, then had to leave the account when I went overseas. Now I got a new account, and the 250+ coins are wasted in an account I dont even play anymore.

    I have one, and more will fallow in about a month, so no thanks. I'm not currently using mine, but it looks like a decent companion. It's really nice of you to give it away. I hope the one who gets it will truly need it and use it him/herself, and not sell it.

    Cheers!
