Weird things happening out of the blue.

Tue Aug 17, 2004 4:19 pm

Ok first. A lab map piece appeared in my inventory. I thought I'd let it go, maybe I missed a random event. Then today, robotjones_121 requested to be my neofriend. It wasn't a new account, they had two painted pets and had been their for 10 months. It just looked like they quit for a bit and decided to join again. I didn't accept the request, but I didn't reject it, it is just sitting there. I tryed to neomail him to ask, but his inbox was full. So I went to my inventory to see if I had any NF auctions (Which I didn't) and I have an orn codestone in my inventory. So wierd.

So, why do you think the items are there, and what should I do about the NF request?

I think he gave them to you. I wouldn't add him too quickly though, not just out of suspision but whether or not you want someone you don't know on your Neofriend list.

There have been very many reports of mysterious items turning up in an inventory. Maps of various kinds have been common intruders of such apparently invisible random events.

When I had a Negg in my Neofriend Auctions for safe storage, because of all the glitches, I had about 4-5 neofriend requests. Nothing to get worked up about.

Wow, talk about random wierdness. Seems suspicious to me.

I wouldn't be alarmed about it, it happened to me a number of times. I don't how they get there but I wouldn't be too concerned.

I wouldnt know what to do about the items..just leave them there I suppose. If its a glitch TNT may get rid of them for you. About the NeoFriend request..let it sit for a little. Or wait and try to NeoMail him again. But that may not be a good idea.

I have had a ton of 'invisible' events including avatars, events, items from friends and even BD challengers.
It probably just looks extra strange because you got 2 'invisible' things near the same time and they were both good items.

I'm a little hesitant about people who just appear out of the blue asking to be my Neofriend. I used to let all these people rot, until someone told me to "reject their requests. It builds charactor . :P I'm usually not that heartless, but when I'm in a bad mood...

Those items probably came from invisable random events. Though two in such a short amount of time is interesting.... :roll:

well, lucky you :) for the neofriend thing, i usually reject them if i have no reason at all to know them, sometimes people do it just because you visited their shop and bought a couple of items, you could always mail support about the items, just incase it was a glitch, but they are items given out by randomk events, so you could just have been lucky and missed it :)

When I was a newbie, items kept appering in my inventory, too. Not good items, mind you...just food and clothes. It's probaly (sp?) a glitch.

Whoah, wierdness.

I usually leave neofriend requests to rot....or just reject them.

Same for me. I have left my neofriends page with 40 pending neofriends requests for like 6 months. TNT has set the max as 40, so any new requests won't even show up. But the new event message at the top still appears. :(

That weird, but I have heard it happening to a couple of my friends lately. I wouldn't mind an extra map piece or codestone every now and again. ;)

I'd say put it in trades or something for a bit (so it doesn't get stolen) and if nothing happens after a week or so, it's yours to keep. :)

Could have been the sloth RE... I remember when I was just a 'lil New Member I got that RE. The strange thing was: it said that I got a kau transmogrification potion, but there isn't such a thing. (I didn't get the potion in my inventory)
