Back when WoW came out my rather large guild would all mail hams to the same person. Hundreds of hams a day for months that they'd have to clear out to get their real mail.
edit: Just to be clear, this happened in 2004. Almost 20 years ago.

Hope they started selling them to make some money off of that, but to be clear, that’s a dick move on your guilds behalf. There’s a line where such things go from being funny to being harassment.

So a guild of assholes? No rogues or warriors or sorcerers? Just assholes.

A few hams in your mailbox might change your attitude.

Sounds more like a congealed opinion

Guilds weren't that large. I highly doubt you had enough players who could afford to drop that sort of money to mail "hundreds of hams a day" to an individual.

Dude probably got mailed like 7 hams in one week and the story has been spinning ever since.

We had 200+ members on day 1. We migrated from another platform.

Hams were like 10 cents. I don't think there was a cheaper item we could send.

extreme doubt
As for if it actually happened, I suppose if it was wintertime, they might actually keep.. I wouldn't complain, being sent good food..

They meant in-game hams apparently.

Food didn't spoil. Maybe that's changed since launch.

Wait are you saying you sent them virtual hams?
FnkyTown t1_j5kdcdy wrote
Yes. Ham is a food item in World of Warcraft. It costs virtually nothing and since it's not real and WoW doesn't have spoilage, they are eternal.
Racially-Ambiguous t1_j5ltbzu wrote
I think that’s why everyone is in disbelief, they think you meant real hams.
FnkyTown t1_j5lwx95 wrote
Which is well worth the downvotes. lol
