Runescape luring has a long history. Hopefully, that history ends in the next few months. This group of lurers decided to expose their methods and move on.

Don't be smart... sounds counter-productive.
@@motodog242 He means that the lurers will likely use this video as a way to make you feel smart to lure you during the 11m grab
^This. These guys can get real crafty, and all it takes is one second of not thinking clearly to get fucked. It's not worth trying to get anything from them.
@@ThaFrenchFry exactly. They already do that releasing make-believe antiscamm videos of their own.
The trick is that they love it when you think you know the lure.
I remember being lured in full rune when I was 8 years old. When I died, I cried.
Happened to me at like 14 with d claws 🙈 they were hard to get back then
@@TcGroenestege oof.. that's rough
accidentally died with my 1.6m (which was all my money) in the wildy while fighting lava drags 🤦♂️

i got someone trying to do a teamviewer screen share lure on me back in 2013 osrs for full dragon
As you scrolled through the names of "potential targets", I saw my buddy's name listed. He was lured for a tbow with the pharaoh sceptre lure. He quit right after losing it, giving me the last 40m of items that he had. Never saw him again. Real sad stuff, man. I miss the guy. We would do bandos and sara every day for months.

Runescape is a good place to understand human behaviour, i've deduced that most scammers in game would also scam in real life if they could get away with it with no repurcussions.
No not really RuneScape is just a game
@@altoids79762 You have to be a psychopath to not see people's gear as a valuation of their effort put into the game. Imagine grinding day and night for an item, and still being able to tell yourself that it's fine to basically steal it from them.
@@spacialist8198 Yes, luring is a bannable offense (it has to be a huge case usually for it to be studied). It falls under the banner of a scam ("obtain GP and/or items from another player by dishonest means.") under Runescape's code of conduct.
For the argument's sake, assume that it's not bannable. It's not "ok" because it's morally reprehensible to deceive people and prey on their ignorance to transfer wealth from themselves to yourself, which they otherwise would have never agreed to. In other words, you're being dishonest about your intentions and willfully misleading someone in order to rob them of their possessions.
@@spacialist8198 The "non scummy" ways to PvP like this are cases where the "victim" does not want to fight but fully aware of the dangers, meaning they are conscious about the risk that they can die and agree to take on that risk.
A classic example is killing people at the Chaos Temple in the wilderness. It's the fastest and least expensive method to train Prayer in the game, however it's 40 levels into the Wilderness and the players bringing their costly bones with them are 100% conscious and agree to the risk of them being killed for it. The player basically agrees that he's increasing the efficiency of his training at the cost of risking to die to PvPers and losing his items.
In other words, the non-luring "scummy PvP" is just preying on people doing certain tasks in the Wilderness, where the risk of dying is the risk they agree on taking. High-risk, High-reward.
As for my original post, if scamming and luring in real life was that easy to get away with, people would do it mindlessly and way more, like they do it in game, and the empathy within humans on how much trouble and distress they're causing wouldn't be enough to stop them. Whether or not luring is legal in game isn't what i was actually gonna discuss, but thankfully someone already helped explain it.
Anyhow, if anyone has little experience with ppl irl, they'd learn a thing or two from these scammers and lurers.
runescape , as a child , literally taught me about how to handle people in real life
Exactly, it taught us not to trust anyone in our lives.
@@jpesicka999 Sad,but,facts man.
How come? That community surely never was toxic, riiiight? 👀
I actually agree lmao, I remember being 10 and having a scammer “trim my armor” lmao, now I see a lot of the deeper scams and haven’t been scammed since I was 10 😂😂😂
RuneScape taught me to never trust anyone, not even your closest friends!
We've come a long way from follow me to the wild for a drop party. Lmao 😂

I fell for this as a kid, some guy took me to the wildy to pick up a special sword. He killed me :(
@@cooolsimon282 My best friend did this to me when I was very young! But to be fair, he gave me my stuff back and taught me a valuable lesson hehe. Good friend.
i did that once...I was like lvl 7 being baited by a level 15 for my iron scimmy.
I REMEMBER LOSING 200K IN THE WILDY GETTING LURED BY A CLAN MEMBER AND QUITING BACK IN 10 LMAO
This is hilarious because I met that Ezreal guy before and he did the exact same thing to me. But once the whole luring thing came along, I just tele'd away.
I had the exact same scam tried on me, the player had a different name though. I pretended I was high the entire time just to mess with them. It was great seeing that dudes rage out of discord
how dare you not give him gold
Do you have any footage?
I saw the kid at the g.e we both had infernal and his names zuk so ez 2 remember
I have screenshots of him trying to force me to go with his anti lure lol his rsn is zuk ezreal proably got multiple accs.
Zuk Ezreal has changed his name to "AmGuards". Just doing my part.
LOL I literally just saw him in ge and went back to this video to make sure of the nickname, and it is the same.
But his level was not 126 as in the video, it was below 114
So he made 2 league of legends related names huh? First the champion ezreal, then a variation on the item Seekers Armguards from league.
Only a league of legends player would be sociopathic enough to actually scam people on Runescape
@@glenndiddy
Haha I can't tell the difference
Both games are addictive and eat your life away
If someone really wants to give you something good - they will just do it - no strings attached. Just yesterday someone gave me a dragon pickaxe, and it was that simple. They traded me, gave me the pickaxe and then it was in my bag. No 'give me your (whatever item) and I'll trade you again for the pickaxe', no 'follow me and I'll give you the pickaxe' and no set of strange, convoluted instructions - they simply gave it to me for nothing.
Some people are generous, but if it's not a straight forward, one-time trade, it's probably not legit.
(I made sure to pay it forward by giving my rune pickaxe to someone using an adamant one - technically not for free though as the guy gave me a piece of coal in return).
Rhi Tel respect
Yeah that's very true. The other day I was training on hill giants (I'm sorta nooby) and I watched some decently high level guy just walk up to someone that was wearing mismatching rune and adamant armor/ He just walked up and said "I have been sent here to upgrade your armor, trade it to me". All I could think was, damn, poor guy is about to get scammed. I watch as he takes off all his armor and begins trading, but then after the trade the high level guy just walked away as the other guy starts putting on a full zammy set. I was genuinely surprised LUL
Exactly! A guy gave me 18 M last week.
That’s awesome, I always like to pay it forward as well. I give lower level players with not matching armor full set upgrades. It’s always nice to do good things.
my friend got traded prims and a zammy spear the other day before we went to corp lol
Yeah I remember back when "follow me there's this castle in the wilderness where you can trim armor"
I always like the classic "help we with a video"

The saddest part is they’re probably scamming using accounts they’ve bought from the players that quit due to the scams.. there’s something really dark about that
Zombies.
ahh the cycle of life
they steal accounts with all those bots spamming in all the worlds in the GE, droves of idiots fall for phishing scams from those bots and the cycle continues
i mean some of them maybe, but once u are like that highly ranked with thousands upon thousands of hrs spent in the game... some just get exhausted and kinda quit like myself. havent sold my acc or anything tho
Fearzzy I’ll buy it man
This exact same thing happened to me. A guy I talked to at the GE for about an hour gave me a ring of suffering because I told him it’s the only ring I don’t have. The next day he pms me telling me to login under him to grab an arcane someone was dropping near the fishing guild bank. With nothing on me, I do this and get an abyssal whip instead. About 20 minutes later the same guy tells me to meet him at the edgeville bank so we can get the arcane but I have to be the bait. “Coincidentally” there’s a guy there who trades me and shows me a few expensive items. I met him at the FG bank and he does exactly what you showed, gives me zammy brews. Then I showed him my tbow. He then gave me the pharaohs outfit with the scepter. That’s when I switched back to a safe world and blocked their asses. Got an ez 26m out of it though.
SAME THING HAPPENED TO ME. The whip given and everything, and with the guy helping me out and everything too... Really sad stuff to see :(
Was just hoping to meet a new homie out of the situation ya know. But walked away with some nice $$$
I made 75m in a week with people trying to lure me with the sceptre trick 🤭🤭
The fact that another human can sit in a call and try to psychologically manipulate and straight lie to someone is wild lol.
Saddest part is, that's light compared to things some humans do.

I'm actually really interested in hearing the discord call lol
Fuck legal reasons, I won't say shit, add me on discord bro, add me
Legally, recording someone's voice without their permission is always sketchy as hell. Even if you're allowed to record people without informing them (sometimes referred as "one-party consent" in the US), they might live in an area where they can't be recorded like that and it starts getting very expensive very quickly. Even having a slam-dunk case can still necessitate paying a few hours to a defence lawyer which can be hundreds or thousands of dollars just to defend your legally-OK actions. It's just too risky.
Same
Pugger could have his channel taken down or demonetized for releasing it though, as it could be illegal
It 100% depends on the state or province Pugg lives in. If he lives in the USA and resides in say Wisconsin, alls you need is single-party consent. So regardless of where the other person is, lives, etc... its 100% legal.
If he is in again say Wisconsin which has single-party consent and he records it there its completely legal.

What makes me sad is that those amazing accounts are now bieng used as scam accounts.
Exactly. The system feeds itself
And Jagex allows it all because they keep getting paid. Disgusting.
Exactly what I thought. 2000+ hours of hard work wasted to scam people.
I remember losing a D hatchet and mud staff to a scam back in 05. I legit cried and was so sad for days. Now I only use Ironman accounts, I will never feel that pain again.
I’m sorry you had to feel such awful pain
I don't understand any of the terms you used, but you have my sympathy. You're smarter now, don't worry, it won't happen again my friend.
Make them suffer!
What ironman accounts?
I lost full justiciar with a rapier after a raids run chilling at ge. I was too trusting and gullible. I quit osrs for awhile but came back as an ironman and its so much more rewarding
"11 mil just from pretending to be STUPID" love it man, i love it 😂😂
The background music makes this video spooky
true, goosebumps on mai balls senpai :3 spookey
It’s the Draynor Manor song. Just reminds me of a walking chair
"Spooky" is literally the name of the background music.
EDIT: why am I getting a notification for someone pressing like on this comment, while, in fact, my comment currently has ZERO likes? Did someone press like and then remove it?
Damn.
The biggest thing to remember is: If you ever think you're getting one over on a lurer/scammer - chances are that's part of the scam. Even if you know the way a lure/scam works, often a lot of the new lures/scams are built on ways that people would anti-scam those.
Example: The duel arena arrow scam. Low level guy offers to stake you lots of money. Gives you a maple bow + rune arrows to fight him. Another guy trades you addy arrows and tells you that rune arrows won't work. You grab them and accept the duel. Scammer pulls out knives, and you realise you can't use your bow - the scam was disabling two handed weapons, and nothing to do with the arrow type.
I did manage to anti-scam someone doing that by bringing grey chins (I figured he'd be looking to see if I had knives/darts/obby rings etc, so I filled my inven with lots of weird random stackables, and hid grey chins in the middle since they're not super obvious) and since he was a low CB level it worked, but even that is something I'm sure a scammer could figure out a way of turning into a new scam.
"Easy real" lmfao.
I love how its just a game and you're going out of your own way to spot these botters, lurers, people abusing the system, etc. Great work with all your content. Keep it up because its obvious Jagex needs a lot of help.
Thanks for the shoutout on the music video Pug. More music coming real soon.

"He asked me where im from"
Report and walk away, dont even let them know they've been reported.
I dont get why people say 'reported' it doesnt report anybody when you type it into chat i've always been one to report without saying a word or the whole 'everybody report this person' like okay dude if I wanted to report that person I would have done it I dont need you to tell me
Thats what I do IRL
Well reporting sends a screencap of the chat log, if you report someone just because someone tells you to, then you dont really have a legitimate grievance...
I was suspended back in 2003 for asking a random dude where he was from, if I login in the main website I can still read the chat log.
Dang i ask people where they're from just for fun
Crazy, bc i was on a 500lvl+ server the other day, some dude just offered me a full rune set while I was in the mining guild.
he just gave it to me through trade with no catches. it was crazy weird when he said, "I just like helping people".
that's such an odd mentality to have in 2020RS.
this happened to me as well and we become friends, now, with a higher level, I also give sometimes stuff to random people I meat and talk.
I love that kind of person, I was trying to skill but obviously clueless and three people traded me a combined 5.2 mil to get me started, my entire account is a snowball off of those donations
I once got 53m for awnsering a trivia question and when i said thanks, everyone called me a scammer lol. The guy just gave me 53m
Hey, some people are like that. I give out money on RS3 all the time and some people get suspicious lol. Just like helping
"Lurers are moving on from the game and decided to expose the luring scene!" More like, giving people knowledge of the lures so that people will attempt an anti-lure which is the actual lure. Nice.
Those bots are pretty cool though. The ones that shout out the lures. Even though it's created by other lurers.

General rule people:
If it sounds too good to be true, *it is*
Facts
simpler rule:
if its good, its not real
Yup, If it looks like a skunk and smells like a skunk... it’s a skunk
Scams can have more depth than this. While if something is too good to be true, its definitely a scam, but I've been scammed on deals that were pretty 50/50.
If its too good to be true, it is, but just because it isn't doesn't mean its not a scam.
Spider Ebola valid point, me reference regarding skunks was more of a life reference.. but then again, RuneScape does actually teach real life skills and how person(s) interact with one another. Good response, brother!
I remember an old lure trick around when lending came out in original RS.
They would get you to lend them a rlly good item then one way or another they would get you to 💀 then kill you and then the item would be theres. Kindof a bug/lure hybrid
1:43 bro that thicc purple lady caught me off guard like dayumn 😳

I watched this earlier this week and today it saved me from being lured at the GE. Thank you so very much
07:10 bro really said "you good listener" who does he think hes talking to, a 6 year old with downs?
You gotta remember that they will try ANYTHING to make you believe them. If the chance of you trusting them goes up by them acting like they think you are smart, they will praise you to the skies and back. They will act like you are the king of the world if thats what it takes.
Luring kid prolly barely speaks English lmao
TuRnT FoReVeR meanwhile there’s some prod just sitting there with ZGS waiting to just jump you lol
That's literally part of the scam. The one saying that is the supposedly obvious, dumb scammer that Ezreal and actual scam target Pugger are trying to bait and loot items from. The intent is to make the scam target think that wow this scammer is an idiot, this will be easy to steal another free zgs from him.
People who fall for scams usually do have downs.
I don't play Runescape since around 2012 but am getting videos about the game recommended so much, huh.
It brings so much nostalgia.
I shared this video to a friend who was being approached by a group of these guys. Thanks so much creating this resource to help prevent scamming
I've had many people come up to randomly talk to me in the past, always knew it was fishy and told em to fk off. Now I know why

Thank you for this year, I fell victim to this about four years ago and stopped playing an account that I’ve had since about 2003 -2004 I lost everything. I just started back 4 weeks ago or so. It’s been a rough start back. I sold my account after all of the mess
This happened to me a month ago. I used my iron as bait and I lost Tbow, full bandos, Dragonfire ward, and a bunch of other shit. I wish I had known better. Thank you for bringing this up to the public attention.

@@ahmadalkhateeb1180 it may just be me but in my opinion it isn't particularly smart to trust a complete stranger on the internet. I get that its a game and you're trying to make friends and have fun but "trust" shouldn't ever be enough to trade someone you just met or have hardly known with something that not only has a sort of real life value but took potentially hundreds of hours to get. If youre above the age of 14 you are infact an idiot for falling for this kind of stuff. "Oh come to a pvp world with billions i wont lure you." Please..
I remember some guy walking up to me and just straight giving me 7 bonds. That is how I became a member for the first time
7:37 damn, that's pretty brilliant i must say.
it’s really unbelievable that jagex hasn’t just fixed the stupid “animation stall” thing entirely
They're probably in on it too, over a million bucks, sounds pretty nice to me.
they love it
im pretty sure it would of been done by now but they have to do each one individually. they use to patch the stalls that used them in staking but that took a while too
Jagex hasn't fixed 90% of flaws and issues with their game. They are in on everything
A lot of time people justify luring as "the victim deserved it for being so stupid to run around in the wilderness with all their money", and I can see where that logic comes from, but it doesn't apply when you're abusing what is essentially a bug that you're hoping the target is not aware of...
We need more content like this.

You should never have shown interacting with scammers as being in any way profitable, especially while describing it as "Pretending to be stupid". That 11m is all many players are going to take away from this. There are a decent number of people, mainly kids, who are just going to see this and say "Well I'm not stupid, I should be able to profit as well."
The only people who can really do this "anti-scam" is high level accounts with a lot of money. If you've been playing this game for a long time AND you watched this video, then if you're stupid enough to still get scammed then maybe go play fortnite.
Facts but luring is important to separate gold from those that don’t deserve it

Interesting to see how advanced luring tactics have gotten. Using bots and an anti-anti-scam as a ruse. Pretty impressive from a certain point of view.
TBH, years ago, my friend and I used to lure relatively low level players with money to tribesmen on Karamja. Generally one of us would look for someone sufficiently low level for the tribesman to attack, someone looking to buy a relatively expensive item. After talking to the guy a bit, I'd introduce my friend, who'd talk through private chat to the victim and he'd say he was interested in selling [whatever item the guy wanted] for a low but semi-believable price, but was busy mining gem rocks in Shilo or whatever. Then I'd offer to take the victim there and lure him to the tribesman. Generally I'd spam-trade an anti-poison potion once they got hit to keep them from teleporting away, but never actually give it. Wait a bit for them to die than take their cash. Then PM them acting all shocked and offering to meet them to give them their stuff back (report window was only like 90 seconds back then I think, so if you stalled long enough, there'd be no evidence for them to report).
If we were lucky, we could make a few mil a day sometimes. Kinda luck of the draw on who we could find.
Then we both got banned and kinda moved onto other things, lul. Fair enough on Jagex's part; we were shitty teenagers breaking their rules or whatever.
But anyway, this is some next level shit. 0_0
I was about to watch this video a week ago. Fortunately I didn't need to, but it would've saved me a lot of grief. Literally had this exact process happen to me yesterday, the discord call and sceptre and everything.

funny that this video pops up on my recommendation. Someone was really friendly with me and suddenly the lurer tried trading me this stuff and the friendly guy encourage me to try to anti-scam him. thankly it didn't work since I've always been skeptical about runescape players and just denied it. even asked if i watched SirPugger too.
SirPuggerThis happened to me but after i got the whip from logging in under, i split the price of the whip with the guy. told me to pull my bank out and sit in ge. he then says wait for a scammer to target me. so they want me to hop at barbarian assault minigame and show all my gear to them in a trade. i bank my stuff real quick, trade them, and it pulled me into multi. i was on discord call with a guy saying "you messed up the arcane grab you better get this" and after i seen what happened i instantly ended the discord call, and blocked the discord account and the osrs account. this is a guy that was my friend. im thinking he sold his account... smh. please keep sharing this. they tried it on me. im taking time out of my day just to comment to show how much i appreciate seeing this. thank you so much
i signed up for double xp like two weeks ago and now i cant log in. im quitting this game
you have been phished. my condolences. see some account security threads moving onward of what to do and what not.

Okay hear me out, Secretly SirPugger is in charge of the whole luring operation right?
He is attacking botters who make gold doing nothing and sell it, needs next to no user input in many cases so its free money for bot operators.
If he takes out the botters, gold prices go up, and he makes more money if my theory is correct.
Once the botters are out of the game the gold prices to go up as theres a supply/demand chain. He uses his position as head of the luring operation against our love for the SirPugger to release a video "exposing" lurers for people to attempt and anti-lure, only to have a bigger lure to trick every single one of the people attempting to anti-lure.
He already said how money money they've made; since OSRS release over 1 million USD sounds pretty good.
I'm onto you SirPugger ;)
@Sanberk Atalay aahahahahahahahahah
LMFAO spending money on worthless ass ingame "money"
Super interesting, I always wondered what those bots at 4:50 were from or their purpose
SirPugger has just shown me what I need to do to start playing the game again :)
I’m actually more proud of you for this than the bot busting videos. Luring has been so deep in the osrs community and lying on teamspeak, skype, curse and eventually discord has become so popular
"Oh, it's totally fine to hop to a PvP world with all my most expensive items in my invetory!" -Stupid people that deserve to lose their bank
Loose
@@mlalbaitero People that lure are scum and are horrible at PvP so they decide to ruin someones (potential) life.
@@mlalbaitero oh yeah where's your statistics bill nye?
@@aaroncollins7860 Its a game where u click a thing a million times so u increase a number pretty sure most people need some sorta disorder to enjoy that
@@mlalbaitero so Are every other game so whats your point?
I was lured in 2011ish and lost my partyhat that I purchased the day before. The feeling was indescribable, but it definitely allowed me to get my social life back after I quit playing.
In this video he says a bot scans the g.e for rich targets, since you had a party hat is triggered the algorithm
Got lured for 600m Nov 2019 at the Arceeus bank. The sequence you explained it was nearly identical. The one main difference is that the guy who initiated the contact with me and was in the discord call was on my friends list for months before.. again, to build trust. I had no idea what was happening and I feel pretty dumb about that.
I’ve never received my Runes in a bottle...
omfg i actually cried
I guess you could say I was lured IRL
Showing how you made 11m on this video is just gonna make more people try and anti-lure and get scammed
That's good, it'll be a good learning lesson for them
David Ortega ok lurer
Well if people are putting their Bank in inventory in pvp worlds, a square away from being able to lose it all, they're dumb. *Especially if they're aware of the lure.* So this video is fine. Spreads awareness and there's still natural selection.
@@otallono I almost got lured through a tele tab recently, was very tired and overly trusting. But now I feel bad for kids this happens to, OSRS is played in a chilled out state usually (for me)
they target rich people so 11m isn't gunna be that much incentive anyway
This is more like real journalism compared to anything made on any major network of that past few years.
Great research and respecting your sources anonymity. 👍
*When you see your own username in the video preview*
haha, I'm in danger...
Why do people hop to a pvp world with their bank? does common sense ever kick in?
The idea is you *think* you are going to get the jump on the scammer but the guy helping
You to cheat the scammer is in on the scam as well.
I was nearly baited when a rando on a pvp world i hopped into showed me his cash stack and then mocked me for being poor. I withdrew a bunch to show him I wasn't.
He did the stall for a trade to lure me but messed it up so I was safe. It's honestly brilliant. Being mocked like that def made me not think about what could happen, and ofc I didn't know about the stall glitch. From my perspective, it was just some a hole bragging about his bank.
To be honest sometimes I am playing on a pvp world for whatever reason, forget I am there, and then tele to edge with 100M+ because I am stupid...happens all the time I have just gotten lucky
@@pablojams5152 ye its such an old scam tho seen it everywhere. Even seen it with someone tryna skull trick me for nothin more than a whip, wtf?
these lurers play on emotion... common sense doesnt always triumph unfortunately
I feel like this is a episode of rick and morty "One Crew over the Crewcoo’s Morty"
These scams are really drawn out and takes a lot of persistence to pull off. Back in the day it was just a case of being told to follow someone into the wildy for a free full rune g set
I’ve seen that name before zuk ezreal that’s crazy haha. I always play with public off, trade off, along with accept aid off seems to be working great!
i got scammed by these people XD they indeed convinced me with letting me antiscam me like 20m in under 15 minutes. and in the course of 3 days we ''antiscammed'' 4 people for over 10m+ each time and i was drawn in at that piont.. lost a t bow to them XO i felt so extremely stupid to have myself being played like that.. but i didnt care to much anyway.. i laughed it off as i had still 3b+ bank anyway..
people say you are stupid if you fall for this kind of thing but the thing is... they make you feel like you the one doing justice by anti scamming real scammers.. they get on discord with you and become your ''friends''. i guess im happy it happend to me, now im learned and it will not happen again =) big thumbs up for making this kind of content bro, keep unaware people safe!
geloof er heeeelemaal niks van muaat
Sir pugger, maintaining quality content
PSA: Scooty tried this lure on me. I was smart enough to avoid the scam but I did profit around 6m off him. Thanks for creating this video, it really helped me avoid the bigger scam at work.
Wish i saw this video before. Got lured for a scythe exactly like that.
Here's what i've learned from my 11+ years of playing runescape. The runescape community is a rank 1 criminal mind in overall mmorpg. Catfishers, hackers, lurers, scammers and even more. In runescape your best friend is also your most wanted enemy. So keep this in mind.
Thanks for making a video on this, I got lured almost identically like this last year for 500m.
I knew it was a lure but I was pretty drunk and thought I could out smart them. Lol turns out I didn't.
Well can't say you didn't deserve it. It's like feeling sorry for a drunk driver that drives into a tree, I feel more for the tree in that scenario.
@@LegDayLas l0l idiot
hey bro shoutout to you for shouting out your friends music video. Seriously, as someone who makes music videos myself, getting serious promotion from a friend can mean a lot.
Not just the community has grown up, so have the scammers. You can see with just how sophistocated and clever some of these tricks are...
I've had these types of dudes try this on myself and my buddies. They also try to offer ToB and Inferno coaching to befriend you lol. All max capers as well.
Yoco the ultimate virgins
Never played this game.
Another day lost on youtube ahah
Its a good game.
Just started playing yesterday, its loads of fun. you should try it
"Zuk easy reel" 😂
Wow, This actually happened to me about 2 years ago the stall lure that is. I got dragged out of the bank and had no clue how.
U can still see their whole namn at the left lmao
8:00 you shouldn't trade in PVP world for the Sceptre, they could lure you out aswell and you can loose your bank.
making a sir pugger vid:
step 1: draynor manor music
step 2: catch bots
done
gr8 job sirpugger, you're making a difference out there.
