Protip: One way to check how long an account has been "secured".

Example:

http://forum.logicalgamers.com/gaiaonline-trading/8037-s-i-am-worth-11-079-405-has-5-mill-pure.html

This account is hacked BUT HAS BEEN SECURED FOR 2 Years so its pretty safe. I will only be accepting gaia gold/items/or accounts. I don't think anyone has enough LG for this.

How do we call bs on it?

There's an Ice Prince in there, last I checked...
Item: Ice Prince < tektek.org

Item Location: Found in Thank You Letter for December 2009

Ohyah!
raep.

Edit: If a mod feels as if this belongs in guides, feel free to move it.
It's not much of a guide, just a "tip".

Oh shit, I wouldn't have noticed that... ._. BOSS.

wow i wouldv'e never noticed that
thanks

Very nice!
I dont believe someone would spend two years securing an account anyways. Thats just ridiculous.

Especially if it only has 11mil on it. +50m might go a few months, but still.

Let's say an item was hacked and they say it's been secured for "3 years".
Well if you look through the item list, and the account has items from 1-2 years ago, it's obviously a lie, or they've got onto the account and spent gold recently or after hacking it.

thanks for this dude..and this should really be in the guides

I'm surprised a lot of LG members doesn't know this. xD

I usually see a lot of LG members selling accounts saying "inactive accounts"
Then you'll see items which are released in this year. -.-

i honestly never did ahaah

doesn't always work like that; sometimes the people who get the accounts like to buy newer items and just dress them up or w/.e

Love how this is bullshit. Secured is not inactive.. Inactive is no one's fucked with the account. Secured is just you change pass and email and wait. The end. This has NOTHING to do with teh items. I PURCHASE SHIT WITH MY ACCOUNTS, they are SECURED.

"This account is hacked BUT HAS BEEN SECURED FOR 2 Years so its pretty safe. I will only be accepting gaia gold/items/or accounts. I don't think anyone has enough LG for this. "

Yes, that is bullshit, you didn't secure it 2 years ago, I believe that, BUT, SECURED IS NOT INACTIVE. INACTIVE IS NO ITEMS BOUGHT.

Nice mistake...

I do the same with hacked accounts, but there's really not much of a point to do so until you know it's not going to be banned in the end. In my opinion at least.

Funneh. I'll keep that in mind. Thanks mate.

Haha, never wouldh've though of that Thanks for teaching us "noobs" or "newbies" (me for example ;D)
