If you frequent the Path of Exile 2 subreddit, you'll see plenty of screenshots of the in-game chatlog as players share snapshots of witty repartee or bemoan the rampant spambots advertising level boosting and low-price orbs.
But earlier this week, redditor N8-97 posted a different sort of chat screenshot: a mea culpa, declaring his guilt over accidentally crushing the hopes of an innocent soul who just wanted to trade for a cool quiver.
That poor bastard was one Imagineddy, who quickly became something between a martyr figure for PoE 2 players and a precious little guy who must be protected at all costs.
N8-97's screenshot, posted under the title «I'm so sorry imagineddy it wasnt meant for you, I meant to message the bot. You can have the item for free,» captures a tragedy of timing.
It begins with N8-97 receiving a whisper advertising an illicit currency-selling website—a frustration the average PoE2 player might suffer a dozen times in a week.
