Despiser would be a good title... or maybe the giant or Ranyhyn name for him, though both escape me at the moment.

Hmmmm....So, I got Vain's email today about White Gold Dollars and all that stuff, and decided to check out this part of the forum, which I basically haven't had time to check out before.

The first thing I noticed is that now people have different titles...and colors! Than I noticed that my title had been taken away and replaced by none!! :? :wink:

I also noticed that I had a few WGDs - enough to purchase a title, but not much else. So I went to the store and clicked on "purchase title" not knowing what would happen. Presto! "Your purchase has been successful" the computer screen told me. It has? But what have I purchased? Apparently, I have purchase back my original title, "Servant of the Land." I guess I thought I'd be given a choice or something. And, apparently, I have to pay more WGDs in order to change my title!! 8O :wink:

All I'm saying is, a little explanation in advance might have been helpful!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

You should have been here when it cost 1000 WGD's to buy your old title back 8O Actually, I rather messed that one up. I thought I was disabling one thing when it was actually another thing. :oops:

Lord Mhoram - The colour you bough appears to be a shadow. You can have text colour (defaults to black so if you want it to be black then you don't have to still buy it), a Glow colour that adds an aura type thing to your name, and the shadow.

I think the shadow doesn't do much with this light background so maybe sticking to text colour and glow effect is the way to go.

Vain,

I must have been on about the same time as Ms. Mary. I also attempted to purchase a title with the mysterious 1,000 WGD but when it didn't do anything I sold it back but did not get any WGD back. I hate to be frivolous with my WGD but I'm wondering what happened. Any thoughts?

Yeah, I didn't realize you don't get your WGD back when you sell something...I sold my glow because I didn't like the way it looked, and I assumed I could just buy another one...but now I don't have enough WGD! Where do they go when you sell something? :?

:? I'm not sure why the refund thing isn't working. Will need to check it out :?

In the interim, just let me know and I'll arrange manual refunds :) Brinn, I have refunded you 1000 WGD's, and foamy, a hearty 600 :)

Well, I finally figured out this color and glow business. Lost a few dollars in the process, when I made an accidental withdrawal. Still deciding whether I like these colors, or want to go with something else.

Now to figure out a good title...

Well, I sold my title glow, and bought a different one, but I didn't get a refund of 300 WGDs. I had to withdraw more WGDs than I was anticipating to buy a different glow (cause I was expecting those 300 WGDs back to my credit). Aren't I supposed to get a 50% refund, which would be 300 WGDs?
