Very nice guide Ruger, I hope everyone reads it before trading on Wurm.

In-game, not on the forums.

I don't really know what's happening, I think they just tracked the coins and I was unlucky enough to be in possession of them. Pretty much out of my hands now, as the funds were "gifted". You were lucky to get out of your trade with him Kegan when you did.

Face to face trade, not cod, as I was in the area. Yeh Enki has been pretty helpful.

I'm not planning to start a buying/selling dealer type thing, I just saw some silver going for cheap and knew it would sell for me. Please don't think I plan on starting a silver dealership

Like Keldun said, I thought I would buy some, then auction off what I have in 2, 1g auctions, starting at what I paid for it. Sure I was only standing to make 20-30e, but I'm at college and that's 5-6 hours work pay for me, which is quite a nice bonus to make flipping what I thought would be an easy profit. Some people disagree with that sort of practice, but in my mind it's a legitimate way to earn some extra beer money, although now I'm down ~10 hours work. Oh well, good job I'm a gambling man haha.

The account I delt with was nearly 2 years old, I reckoned that was a good indicator. Do you have any idea if people do get their stuff back in this situation Alyeska? I'm pretty concerned, as I did spent real money on the silver and my account. It's been a couple of days already and communitcation with the GM's is somewhat slow. They have a lot to deal with, I know.

Alright, so it's not a purchasing thread, but I figured this is where most people would find the information useful. A few days ago, I purchased some silver from an account called "Kayze". I got it cheap as he was apparently quitting and needed a fast sale. The deal went through fine, I got my silver, he got his euros. The next day, I go to log into wurm and find my account is banned for reason "Scamming". After seeing that, I decide to check out the forums and message a GM to try and resolve the issue, as the deal I made with Kayze went by with no complaints on either end. After some research, I find that Kayze, who I bought the silver from, appears to have scammed it from someone and then sold it on to me. I know this must suck for whoever he scammed, but now, I'm down my real euros, my entire in-game bank, not just what he sold me PLUS my account. All because I traded with someone who obtained their gold from illigitimate sources, even though the deal I personally made, went without a hitch. A word of warning to you all, please only buy from reputable sellers as of today and I'll *hopefully* see you in-game at some point in the future if/when I get back my stuff. Trade safe, people.

I'm with Protunia on this one. F2P is a demo and should be treated as such. As for spawning on home servers, a couple of hours can get you there quite easily via boat or even swimming.

How do I contact a GM if I cannot login?

Sent you a PM on here jacobw.

Starter sickle - Very good idea as long as you're taught how to use it in the tutorial also. No-Drop Compass - I've never used a compass in Wurm. There's no need to and it'll only make people more lost I feel. Simply paying attention to deed names, landmarks and where you're walking, you can navigate perfectly well.

Yeah, Im just editing them together now *Edit: Pictures added. They are a little large, but it lets you be able to read them clearly. Sorry to anyone with a slower connection The bsb's on deed contain around 20,000kg of logs, 600 cotton and 1000 wemp.

SOLD - PLEASE LOCK/CLOSE Hi everyone, due to some unforseen financial situations, I am going to have to sell the account I bought only a week or so ago. The account comes with 25 silver in it's bank account, several very good horses and a large number of enchanted tools, 96Ql fireworks, enchanted armor + weapons, a few bsbs filled with resources and a food storage bin with 1000's of corn and cooked meat. Details of the deed are below the skill dump. The account is "Nymander" and is currently at my deed on the Independance server. It has premium until the 11th of September.

It is called "Skylit Shore", however on the community map it is still called "Deworio". The deed is 31 x 49 in size and has an upkeep of 3s 3c 80i per month, with over 8s in its coffers. (Enough for over 75 days). The deed is semi-terraformed however I have yet to build anything on it apart from a 2x2 pens for my horses. There are 6 Iron veins and a silver vein with the entrances on-deed. Also included is a sail boat. The deeds expands out into the water where the dock is. This can very quickly and easily be raised to create somewhere around 200-300 more tiles within the deed as the water is very shallow around the edge. The auction will run for 3 days and will finish at midnight (gmt) on Friday the 24th of August. I am only accepting paypal. Starting bid - 50e (Minimum increase is 1s) Happy Bidding and Good Luck!
