We should start some kind of guild rental store.

I think it'd be a neat way of getting that necessary 'top my av off' item and earning some extra gold at the same time.

For instance I need a chickie hoodie. With one I'd be pimpin' in style, but I don't have the gold to buy one at 18k. But never fret, my friend *insert name here* has one and would be willing to let me borrow it. But of course I can't take advantage of dear ol' *insert name here* so I offer to rent it for $__ sum of gold.

Whatcha think? Is it worth its own store, um thread?

I think most people are to paranoid of losing their items for a paltry amount of gold.
A lot of folks have lost really expensive stuff loaning it out even to people they consider friends.
So while it's a cool ideal I don't think it'd go over well with very many folks. neutral

Ya think? Even amongst the guild members? What if the cost of rental was equivalent to value in either gold or collateral?

Eh, maybe you're right I didn't consider that. I'm too honest myself to attempt to cheat a friend. And I'd have never considered that a friend would cheat me.

I know hun and I feel the same way about things. I value my friends above anything.

But believe it or not most of the scamming and item theft on this site, as well as "hackings" sadly occurs between people who are friends.
Someone has something their friend don't.
They trust them with their password or item(s) then bam drama and ruin.
Greed makes people quite stupid. xp

There are only like...8 people on gaia I would ever lend my stuff to. Even with being a moderator. I could still get scammed just as anyone else. And as a matter of fact, the mod team would think I'm a retard if I put myself in that situation. So no ways would I ever lend my stuff out like that. Only to people I've known for a very long time.

Ok I get it, and I feel the fool for ever having brought it up. Not to put you on the spot or anything, but curiosity has got the better of me and I just have to ask... am I one of those 8 'prilly? User Image


...and not that I'd ever ask for anything cuz I think you know me better than that. *lol*
