Nice.
Reminds me of the early 2000s being a child and running my "business" in Runescape. Come home from school (where I'd be making my spreadsheet or doing napkin math accounting), talk to some of my boys in the game to get an update on the lobbys (lobsters) and then go to Varrock (a major city) on world 2/1 (trade hub worlds for members/free to play) to sell lobsters.
I used to be a poor player, and then got some money by running lobsters from Karamja (island where lobster fishing is popular) to the bank on the mainland. Over time I made friends with other people who were in the same boat (heh) as me, and then we started our own business.
I remember being a child and scammed out of a few thousand gold - it was awful. I learned to trust some people and not others.
I also remember after having enough disposable income in the game, I'd go PKing (pvp) with my buddies in deep wilderness (an area where you could fight other people). The deeper you went, the more dangerous it became because each level farther you went into the wilderness, people of that many levels above you could attack you. Anyway, just remembering death dot tactic where a dozen of us would stand in one spot and the minimap would show 1 player. Any random who happened to be unlucky enough to walk past us got destroyed.
Unfortunately right after I graduated high school, I stopped playing and then my account was hacked some time later I guess.
Anyway, thanks for the memory recall.
