Gathering a List of Common Dupes - Please Contribute
Hey, Everyone,
How's it going? Recently, I traded for an item on USWest that disappeared while I was using it - later on, I found out in this forum that it was a commonly duped item. I generally do not like using duped items, not only because they have a good chance of disappearing, but also because it just does not seem fair to me.
I have gone through a few sections of the Diabloii.net forums, mostly threads in the Strategy Forums, and there are tons of complaints from people who have had their items disappear, most of which only found out later on the items were duped.
I would like to gather a list of commonly duped items, because even though it may be "common knowledge" to a lot of people that one specific item is duped, there may be a lot more people who may not know. I would urge people to reply to this thread and list whatever items they find out is commonly duped. If this thread really takes off, I have no problem spending a good amount of time looking through these forums and making a list of my own.
Diabloii.net does not support dupes, and this thread could help members of this forum as well as align itself with the rules and philosophies of Diabloii.net. The only problem is that my initial plan was to edit this first thread, which the list would be in, frequently as people post up reports of duped items, but it looks like I cannot edit threads after a certain amount of time. Any suggestions regarding this? I suppose I could make a new simple Web page just for the list, but am not completely sure if Diabloii.net would see linking of this sort to be against the rules.
Before we really start listing, perhaps people could offer me their thoughts. Is this a horrible idea? A decent one? One that you support?
An example listing would look something like this:
Realm: USWest Softcore Ladder
Date Listed/Updated: December 9, 2006
Item: Enigma Runeword in a 15%ED Archon Plate with +775 Defense as one of the mods
Listed by: MaStAViC (this section could probably be excluded)
Thanks,
