That is why I will not play F2P games. I'd be afraid of that happening to me.

I that's why I call them con-games!
They claim to be free to play, but they really con you out of money... over... and over... and over... and over...

I agree Frodo!! PURE unadulterated con jobs!!! They are addictive in precisely the same way slots are - I should know, put 100s of $$$ into "1c" slot machines in my day!!!

Hair Is Where The Heart Is
Hospital | USA | Awesome, Family & Kids, Health & Body
(I’m traveling with my daughter to get her treatment for cancer. Since an old family friend lives in the area I have to take her for her treatments, we visit while we’re there and I meet his girlfriend for the first time. My daughter’s hair has just fallen out, and she admires the woman’s very long hair while we’re eating dinner. That weekend, the two of them stop by the hospital to visit and her very long hair is noticeably shorter.)
Daughter: *sadly* “Oh! You cut your hair!”
Friend: “Yup!”
Daughter: “If I had hair like yours, I’d never cut it.” *putting her hands on her scalp*
Friend: “Oh really? I don’t mind it. I like doing new things with my hair, don’t you?”
Daughter: *sniffling* “Sometimes… I can’t wait for it to grow back!”
Friend: “Well, I have a surprise for you.”
(She takes a wig out the box she had with her that looks like it’ll be about shoulder length on my daughter, and shows it to her. It turned out that a friend of hers was a wig maker, so she’d actually cut off a good deal of her own hair, and had it made into a wig. I hadn’t seen my daughter that happy since her diagnosis! She made a full recovery, and we just got a wedding invitation for those two last month!)
