I love this loanshark. Its not only a good way to get a fair amount of money when you are short. Its a good way to teach some players a valuable lesson. Take a loan of a player, dont pay him back? Sure, you are a scammer/ get some bounties. Thats it. Take a loan of a Shark --> he'll chew through your suit till he hits a full wallet.
If you are active, why should you get a City Watch to tell you something you already know. If you are not active, why should you get a City Watch to tell you something you will find out next day/week.
Prior to the energy nerfing you could get unlimited energy by just stacking and stacking and stacking. Highest I heard of was 30k energy. (one would be seriously pissed to get an OD ^^)
There is only 1 currency in Torn. Its called the 1DP.
In other words, the amount of ingame cash the gamers value to a Donator Pack (otherwise known as DP). Whenever Ched thinks he gets less than a few million a year (he is a smart man, he thinks ahead) he denominates the value of a DP. In other words, the more players start playing or keep playing this game, without actually spending real life money (o, if you try to, you get banned. Its not being a total hypocrtit, its ''logical'') So if the interest on ingame money sucks, it means the factual income on his reallife money sucks. But its shown as ''keeping the balance''. Yes. On his bankaccount. But can you blame him? Its his income afterall.
Yes. There is. By actually dying in real life, and having it confirmed to the staff.
There is actually a page on this site dedicated to those that died in real life.
Kinda morbid, but I guess, thats part of the game (and no, could have been a solid pun, and even though I make many puns to make people laugh, no pun in ten did)
When I had no merits in Awareness I would find a few items per week. Mostly useless, sometimes less useless. Then I trippled my activity, and had awareness at 10/10 for a few years. Found 4 or 5 kitchen knifes. Then regilded my merits. Back to finding useless items once again, but at least I find them.
For myself, and for many with me, having merits in awareness actually makes it impossible to find anything.
If you have a property with a ''Personal Vault'', and you have money in it, it cant be mugged. Money on hand can get mugged by the rules Jackson explained.
And to put an extra to Jacksons post: anyone that is capable of defeating you in a battle can mug you. This includes spouses and members of the faction you are in (if you are in a faction that is obviously).
Same for me. Had a time where I was active pretty much 12 hours a day (clicking around pretty much fulltime). Activity went up just slightly after a week. For some players its acurate, for others not.
Yup. TCbasic was miles ahead, the owner got forced out of ownership by Torn and it got killed over to give the wiki a shot. But the wiki works fine now, so thats nice.
