Default Loading... Pure Showoffs

From the dawn of time, competitive types have always found creative ways to show off their successes. Whether it's an armory full of your enemies' weapons or - the modern counterpart - a screenshot of your Darkfall bank, today's newsletter salutes purely player-devised ways of showing off in Loading... Pure Showoffs!

How else have gamers shown that they can do the seemingly impossible, or just found creative ways to show off, in the games you've played?

In UO, after you killed someone you could dismember them. After dismembering them you could chop up the pieces further. For example, you could use a knife on a head and get a skull, or use a knife on a torso and get a heart and entrails. The parts used to have the victim's name on them so you could have "the skull of Loic Talecaster" or "the heart of Hauntess". When it was possible to lock these items down in houses, a lot of us would lock them down on the patio or other visible area as a trophy display.

Is making a suit from the flesh of your pvp victims showing off or just creepy?

Interesting, Lok, but I have to go with AB - creepy.
