Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No bigotry of any kind, including ironic bigotry.
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: Do not post public figures, these should be posted to c/gossip

Probably Diablo 2 because that's when ladder got really competitive. You could make serious bank if you found some of the first high runes after a fresh reset. We're talking like $300 on E-Bay for a Jah or Ber if found within the first four hours. That price plummets down to less than $1 by the end of the week.
This is mainly due to dupers being able to make their money back the sooner they get their hands on certain things.
