i was doing world chats today to find a GM. someone PMed me but the name looked like a regular name. how do i recognize a gm? i played another game where when a GM pmed you, the name looked different and was a different color, so you knew it was a real GM.

how do u know if a person is a gm?

    GMs don't exist in-game. They are a lie!

    They will have the GM icon next to their name if you get to see them face to face, and they likely will be afk, and on certain occassions, dead.

    If they whisper you it's I think pink text that says "GM whispers:"
    How come, if someone asks a question in a forum, at least 13/20 posts answers the question in the same exact way, 5/20 word the exact same answer differently and 2/20 say something completely unrelated to both life and death?

    GMs are a fiction created by our chinese overlords to spread fear amongst us b:shocked
    I personally believe they ODed back in 1967

    Anyway and on topic if u call for a GM and they actually respond (getting ur weapon +12 with 12 mirages and no dragon orbs has a higher chance) they will spawn near u with a GM icon next to their name n they wont pm u back, the one who pmed u is probably a troll XD

    GM's can usually be recognised by a heavy smoker's cough and a smell of cheap wine.

    A GM will have simply [GM] in red over their character's head in thick lettering. I've only ever seen them use a noob char tho......I have a screenie somewhere.......if I can find among my many other screenies......

    Ive heard many people say GM's dont exist. My personal opinion is that GM's DO exist, but only on chinese servers (chinese developers = chinese GM's) I don't think you'd find one anywhere though over here.

    You search all over PWI and use anything to look at their armor and stats.

    All the times Ive WC'd or used the GM button to get help have never been answered.

    I tend to believe the "GMs are a myth" theory. Either that or there are lots of GMs getting a paycheck to play other games with PW running in the background.

    Guy if a gm answer u can ask him/her (is there any girl gm?) to tele near u to see if is a real gm, they can teleport at any point, and gms chars are easily reconizgable (do i spelled it right?)

    (getting ur weapon +12 with 12 mirages and no dragon orbs has a higher chance)
    That would be quite a feat, using 2 mirages per refine level o.O

    Anyway, I thought someone on these forums had a screenshot of a GM whispering them as their signature, and it was all red text, like a system message. My memory could be off tho.

    You're thinking of Okeano (previously Divine_Death from DW)

    To get a PWI GM in game while they are on duty, you have to know their WoW handle. Then simply whisper them.

    the letters "GM" are banned names


    however if you whisper someone and they whisper back "GM" then they're a GM

    why do you need gms in game in first place? games without gms is allways better (Im serious). you dont want somebody who tell you where pk is allowed and where not. everything is allowed what game itself allow.

    GMs aren't that rare. I've seen BearClaw at least a dozen times alone. She decided to visit one of my nirvana runs one day. Some baddie in party was account sharing tsk tsk. I've seen other GMs as well a couple dozen times, BearClaw is the most frequent one. So, they do exist I can confirm this!

    And then just touch me.
