    Question Please, give it back, I'm begging you it was a mistake.

    Hello, I'm back! in the forums that is. I miss the forums so bad, still lurking here. So I have an interesting question I'd like to ask.

    If someone UNINTENTIONALLY gifted you BY MISTAKE an Arcane egg/valuable items worth more than a million gold, instead of giving you his golden/silver chest that's clogging his inventory, would you return it back? Yes or No and why?

    Well... if he was giving me garbage chests without asking me then I would not give it back.

    If he was giving me chests that I agreed to take, I'd give it back.

    Of course, I don't think anyone would gift me chests that I actually want. So I guess my answer is no. I would not give it back.

    Is it someone I know and am friends with? Yes, I'll give it back without hesitation.

    Is it a random person that just wants to dump their unwanted copper chests on me? My first answer is no, but I might feel guilty in a few minutes and give it back. Maybe. Oops did you just gift me Samael? Hmmmm. What guilt?

    Side note: I often gift away coppers and silvers to level 5s running around Windmoore. I wonder if they hate me lol.

    I put myself in their shoes and think if I did the same would they give it back. If the answer is no, then yea you know.

    My gifts are turned off in options on all my toons. I only turn it on when I need to

    To answer the question though, if someone would accidentally give me a super high valued item and asked it back, I wouldn't doubt a second to give it back.

    Why? I wouldn't want anything that would cause the person I got it from to feel robbed.


    And for all doubters of my rockstar status:

    Personally, I would say NO.

    I want to teach him/her a lesson, and that is to ALWAYS DOUBLE-CHECK/REVIEW IMPT THINGS.

    A lawyer once advised me this and I kept this advice until now.

    A lawyer advised you about a situation on arcane legends? That's funny!

    In this situation, if someone mistakenly given you the wrong items. That's their fault. The receiver is not obligated in returning the item back. It comes down to ethics and morals.

    Here's an interesting article that happened in real life relating to the situation: http://www.ibtimes.com/will-united-a...ursday-1405232
    - An airline mistakenly sold tickets for $5-10. A bunch of people were able to buy them until the company realized the mistake. The airline still honoured their mistake because it is the ethical thing to do.

    Yes, I'd give it back. It's not mine. I wouldn't want it, as it would come with bad mojo if there was some poor person out there lamenting the fact they messed up and gave me the wrong item. I've talked a person into taking hundreds of thousands more gold from me when they tried to sell me an entangled bow right after they came out for 100K. I could have taken it but he was new and had new clue how to even check prices in the AH. I could have totally walked away with a huge profit based on his ignorance but I knew he'd one day find out how he'd been ripped off and carry a bit of sourness with him over it. Why do that to someone? Yes, sometimes the lessons best learned are the hardest to learn but I just don't feel like it's my job to school people.

    And welcome back! I knew you wouldn't be gone for long so I protested and refused to say goodbye in your other thread lol

    Without question, I would give it back.

    Honestly, I'd probably give it back even if I wasn't asked, because I know its value...

    You mean they meant to gift someone else and accidentally gave it to you? Yes i would because ive been in situations like this in pl when l56 glyph costed quite a bit. Clicked the wrong name, asked him about it, got it back, then i ended up goin ahead and giving him a couple valuables for being cool bout it

    I liquidated an item worth 3m recently, so I know the feeling when you make a terrible mistake. As long as they are polite about it, of course I'd return the item.

    I would definitely give it back, as I would hope someone would do the same for me. However, I do like my husband's idea of selling it back to them, though, lol.

    Ouch!! Did support get it back for you?

    This thread is funny though, and probably one of my biggest fears when I gift chests to level 5's late at night. One of these days, someone is going to run away laughing maniacally because I accidentally gifted away a Lunar or something. Sorry, no arcane eggs in my inventory right now haha.

    Depends, if that would be churlish player, who had no mercy, i wouldn't give it back.

    If that was my friend, no doubt.. no questions, give back in 1 second

    If that was kind, and normal player, yes i would give it back.
