No one told you to spend that money on a Faction. They were telling you the entire time what you should have been doing instead. You didn't listen. We're telling you what you need to do now and you still don't want to listen. You can't beat a group of people who are higher level and richer than you. You can't just come into this game and decide you're the most powerful person here.
Look, I'm barely a day older than you in this game and I'm Level 10. That's not much at all, but it's something. You could also be at this point, which is nearly the same level as they are. Instead, you have spent your entire time in this game whining about how it's unfair and begging for money which you wasted on a faction instead of housing, weapons, trading, etc.
You should listen to the person who first replied to you. She's level 90. She's been playing this game for years. You're less than a week old with delusions of grandeur. Do you want actual help, or do you want people to give you more money for you to throw away?
I don't like this new arc. Go back to the thing where you try to be menacing. That was funny. And stock up on more money. The mugging isn't giving us very much cash anymore.
As a very new player who is also quite intoxicated, I have no idea what any of this is, but I am able to tell that you put a lot of thought and effort into this. I have bookmarked this for when I am more sober and/or experienced in the game, when it will make sense. Thanks for the effort!
Honestly, this will be the real test to see if he's a troll or not. If he's not, he will either be gone forever (good riddance, someone thus thin-skinned and whiny doesn't belong here) or actually come back and start playing now that his bounties are finally gone. If he's a troll, he will be back tomorrow begging for more attention.
Yeah, buddy, the fact that you are clearly capable of editing an image to change the background for your original profile picture, but are still pretending to be incapable of saving a file or taking a screencap and instead insist on taking pictures of your screen is really a dead giveaway that you're trolling.
At this point, I absolutely refuse to believe this person is real. The stupidity has to be deliberate. He keeps making these ridiculous "I am a super villain! Hear me roar!" posts while being repeatedly, casually mugged by brand new players. He's either a terrible troll or a masochist who genuinely enjoys being the punching bag of an entire community.
At this point, I'm done trying to advise this lunatic. He doesn't listen to anyone; he just lies and pretends to be a badass. I'm just going to mug him and watch the second pointless faction he's wasted money on get ground into the dust and destroyed. He won't rest until he's been hospitalized for the rest of the calendar year and has 10,000 enemies. He's actually stimulating the Torn economy through bounties and muggings.
You need to understand that trying to make yourself sound scary doesn't work if you're powerless. If you spent 2% of the time actually leveling up that you do talking about how scary you are, you'd be flying around the world making millions right now. How do I know? We're the same in-game age and I'm almost to that point, and I am by no means a pro at this game. I'm doing okay at best. But I have my own Palace, I have money in stocks and the bank, I have good enough combat stats to casually stealth one-shot you.
Know why? Because when someone was rude to me, or attacked me, I didn't get on the forums and cry about what a bad game this is, I kept my mouth shut and my head down, and got better at the game. If you'd done the same, you'd be as dangerous as you pretend to be on the forums. But then I also wouldn't have made millions claiming bounties on you and mugging you, and you're not going to listen, so keep it up, I guess.
Again, just to be perfectly clear: No, you didn't work to get that. It was handed to you. Someone felt like being nice and gave you an enormous pile of money. You didn't work for it, you asked, and now you think it makes you better than other new players. It doesn't. If you want to actually get good at this game, get off the forums, stop complaining for getting the attention you are asking for, and actually start working on getting good at this game.
You will have to wait for the bounties to be claimed - like I said, demanding attention from everyone in Torn tends to lead to things like this - but they will if you stop spending all your time picking fights with people and boasting about how your enemies are going to pay. You're not a supervillain, you're a level one who keeps demanding free money and people to fight your battles for you, which is kind of funny for a bit, but eventually just annoys people. If you keep running your mouth, people are just going to keep putting bounties on you and jumping you for fun.
You've heard this advice before and haven't listened, so I know you'll just keep ranting and stacking up more bounties, but whatever, we tried.
So which is more likely, buddy? Either you did nothing wrong and this is the experience of literally every new player, in which case no one would be playing this game, OR you have been drawing undue attention to yourself and reaping the consequences.
You get one guess as to which one it is, Mr "Supervillain" who has actually spent points to expand his Enemies list at level 1 and blown millions in donated cash on a faction so he could declare war.
I don't understand what a person would gain by doing everything this wrong. Just to take people's money and waste it on a faction that will get raided? Is the point to just see how much negative attention he can get? Because you don't need a sock puppet to do that, and won't risk getting banned if you don't multi-account. Is it worth the risk of getting banned to... get raided a lot? Is that a win?
My understanding of trolling is someone cleverly doing something to get a bunch of people angry. This kind of seems like someone peeing their pants and then calling it an Epic Troll moment because we laughed at him for peeing his pants, as if it's less embarrassing because he might be doing it on purpose to get a reaction. Like, yes, we're reacting to this lunacy, but he's the one deliberately wasting his time doing brainless stuff.
No one told you to spend that money on a Faction. They were telling you the entire time what you should have been doing instead. You didn't listen.

Man, if this dude spent as much time playing the game as he's spending posting in the forums, talking about how powerful he's going to be some day, he might not be level 1 anymore.
Just to be clear, you didn't earn it. You begged people for money and then talked about how rich you are on the forums, which is much like holding up a sign that says "MUG ME."
And he's the one who actually attacked you and took the money, so he's the one who earned it. You had it handed to you.
Not trying to pick on you or anything, just being clear.
