sugarvalves [1963573] — Buff to director trains applied this Friday. Job points bonus also in effect. Unnecessarily convoluted explanation given in article to pad word count. Are you a frustrated director of a failing company stocked to the brim with inadequate employees?

Bainz [2101476] — Dirty Bomb detonated after Insurgency storm through Torn United Nations' territories with ease. Raiding attempt against Chain Reaction fails. After the foreplay that was the Valentine's Day massacre, the real war has finally begun with a full on territorial battle between Insurgency and Torn United Nations having broken out on Wednesday last week. A formal declaration of war was made by Alexstrasza via a post entitled " The Dawn of a New Era ", and as is often the case with these threads, what started out as a collection of lovable penguin memes and witty banter has now devolved into whatever this is . Then, within the past hour, Evil-Duck finally launched a Dirty Bomb of his very own, as he followed through on his threat to assault Relentless with a nuclear device he actually owned for once - albeit one that was likely financed in its entirety by Torn United Nations. Pictured: The brown horse is Evil-Duck. The Insurgency began the war by leaping...

There are plenty of articles which tell you how to make money in Torn through reviving , doing odd jobs , selling losses and the rest.
