It does look very much like an RFID tag though.

What's the betting that if you read it out it contains an ASCII string of "You're a gullible twit!" or suchlike?

Yesterday I was looking for the 3G stick for my laptop so was searching every pocket of the bag.  The laptop and bag were bought 2nd hand a few years ago.

Anyway, I found something interesting in one of the more inaccessible pockets.  At first I thought it was an RFID tag, but a quick Google search turned up this page:

http://www.qlinkproducts.com/Scripts/prodView.asp?idProduct=98

After a short read, I was left thinking WTF !!!!

It just means the last person who owned the bag before you was a cretin :)
It's not always the most popular person who gets the job done.

Whenever someone uses the word "energy" and there is no "Joules", "kcal", "Giga-electron-Volts" or even "Watts" to go along, I know it is not supposed to be taken seriously.  :blah: Especially if "energy" is qualified by "negative" or "positive".  ::)

In the grand tradition of "touched by miracle" artifacts, GodParticle4U is hawkin' random nuts, bolts, ball bearings from CERN as holy relics.

"You deserve God's Help. You Deserve God's Particle"

I don't even know where to begin... so I leave that to you.

Whole lot of wood will be there as shoring during construction and as parts of office spaces and such. Nails and wood go together, even parts will be delivered in wooden packing crates.

My father ordered some very large equipment from a Swedish supplier, and with the amount of certified pathogen free chemically treated lumber that was used in the packaging crates they were supplied in he was able to build a house. As a subsidiary of the company was a roofing supplier they even shipped a roof for the building as part of the package ( shielding panels) with all mounting hardware, and a very long assembly instruction and warranty at no extra cost for him.

Such scams appeared a long time ago. This is advanced, with neodymium magnet. It even does something, not just useless sticker, I bet compass in the phone will stop to work normally, it should also collect ferromagnetic dust  :-DD.

I really need that device. My level is too low to fight elves and harpies.
Something that disables implants and other perks of enemies would also be nice.
Is EHF a boss? What class and level is he?

Re: electro-psychic attack bs thing.

Am I only one who thinks it's beyond sick and totally disgusting that someone's gone to such efforts to take advantage of people in real pain who need real help?
To be responsible, but never to let fear stop the imagination.

Very confusing trap for young players!

I found it interesting, that part of exhibition at the Museum of Science can be wired with errors, because of esthetic reasons. Please read first reply on this blog, where author of this display  responded.

Wow, this is such a treasure trove of awesomely silly things! I am going to spend far to long going through this entire thread. One thing that always strikes me is how snake oil of all types operate through the same principals. For the last few years I have spent most of my time reading reading about medical snake oil, and in the end they all use the same techniques to con people, the same techniques to try to get back at their detractors. There are very similar broken thought process at work.
