Bots/Scammers are getting more advanced, and using accounts with thousands of karma to post scams/bootleg merch. Previously, most scam bots had under a hundred post and comment karma, and simple minimum karma requirements would auto-remove them…now they have 50,000 and it’s taking me hours to notice and catch them.

While there is a small chance you could genuinely get some Radahn Festival or Hunter Dream Moon by clicking on the websites they link, what will usually happen is YOUR CARD INFO WILL BE STOLEN AND YOUR BANK ACCOUNT DRAINED.

I cannot stress enough that you should never buy a poster/coffee mug/t-shirt/painting, etc, that you saw on reddit. Go browse Amazon or something, there’s a thousand custom shirt printers on there, because the posts on here are scam bots with shady website links or at best, stealing someone else’s art and selling it.

Note: I didn’t include King Arthur/The Sword In The Stone/Excalibur, although in some adaptions, Merlin directly helps him get his sword. But often it’s King Arthur actually acquiring it himself as opposed to it being handed to him by Merlin.

One of the older examples of the trope, though not the first by any means, Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi gives farmboy Luke Skywalker a lightsaber once owned by Luke’s father
In Peter Jackson’s Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King film adaption, the several thousand year old elf Elrond gives the human Aragorn the sword Anduril, reforged from the shards of the ancient sword Narsil that Aragorn’s ancestor once wielded. This is wildly different in the books.
In the 2005 film Narnia: The Lion, The Witch, And The Wardrobe, Father Christmas gives Peter Pevensie a longsword.
In Game of Thrones, Lord Commander Jeor Mormont of the Night's Watch gives Jon Snow his longsword Longclaw, which has been passed down in Mormont's family for generations.

…

This entire post was made solely because the actor James Cosmo plays both Father Christmas and Jeor Mormont, and I thought it was funny that he plays an old man giving a young man a sword in two separate films/tv shows. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird it happened twice.

T-SHIRT POSTS ARE SCAMS! Never click on the links, and please report those posts immediately!
