>was in love with crafting long before it became a meme
>became a whitesmith in some private ragnarok online server
>was one of like five or six known whitesmiths in the server because they are complete shit for guild vs guild which was all that mattered for everyone else
>eventually people wise up to the fact that is cheaper to get me materials and have me upgrade gear than paying several hundred thousand gold per upgrade attempt at the smith NPC, less chance of the item breaking as well
>begin upgrading people's stuff, they would give me several copies of the item and metals, I would upgrade all in parallel and give them the item with the highest modifier that didn't break
>begin receiving more copies of item per job
>start bogarting one or even two copies of expensive items per job, breaking instead cheap daggers to disguise their disappearance, sorry lad bad luck today
>set up network of seller accounts
>become king jew
>once got a rival guild to commit sudoku by bribing their leader to disband their guild and turncoat fifteen minutes before guild war, netting ourselves victory by default and starting a five month server wide war for the disbanded guild's territory
>eventually guild degenerates as old guard leaves game and moves on
>get bored sick with the game
>bribe shift admin with 20% of my wealth to "do you mind activating 'death drops' for a couple minutes? ok now hold my beer"
>run script to use within two seconds the 2000-odd "MVP spawn tickets" that I bought with the remaining 80% in the trade hub
>server took about a minute and a half to actually register the "kill everything in this area" command, which as was typed in haste, killed everything, including the merchant accounts again, as well as the NPC accounts dropping their script items, breaking their interactions
>server was down for days
>account unsurprisingly permabanned
