Guys, PIX is a Brazilian money transfer method. It's a new system launched about a year ago by the Central Bank of Brazil. It's basically the same as a normal online money transfer in your banking app, but you can transfer any time of the day, instantly, with no fees charged by your bank. Since its implementation it became hugely popular here in Brazil.
So, the title of the trade game meant the dude wanted to sell a Ber rune for R$ 250.00 reais (Brazilian Currency).

I know i don't have literally everything but im racking my brain and i can't even begin to wonder what it could be. Time to call in the scooby gang!
ok cuz i actually saw two seperate games too. one was Ber for pix 250 and the other was runes for pix 220. so it clearly wasn't just some random thing, but i couldnt and still cant figure it out for the life of me. i thought maybe pheonix at first too and maybe it was an i and not an L, but the 220/250 makes no sense in regards to pheonix as the rolls are for 350-400.

It could be that the integer suffix is just to make the game name unique. It might be meaningless.
Funnily enough, now this is the first result when googling it:
I think this goes to show it's not a common term at all, maybe it's from a different language? I know a couple terms from the D2 French trading scene way back in the days, though none that resemble this.
Yeah, deSCRIPTion. I guess "desc" would be too clear...
When I was told this, I found it mindboggling, too - how the hell do they expect anyone to select their game, load the game description data, read it, consider if they have the goods to trade, and then join the game before the autoreload deselects it? Particularly if they're using the description to fit in more text than the game name would allow.

The other thing that I cant still understand is the Script 4 X. What is that script thing???
Script means 'Look at the game description'. In this case, it's what they're offering/trying to get.
Used to be "O This N Read" or "N That Read", etc.
I worked in Legacy because loading game description worked and game name was in textbox even after list refreshed. Now you have to memorize all the game names.
Ok so I’ve made some headway on this riddle. I believe it is not pix now but plx. I found this On a D2 forum. I’m still confused but I’m walking in the right direction now I think.

And i guess plx means please, but that makes no god damn sense. Since when was plz not good enough to mean please? When did the internet just decide to add this confusing addition the abbreviations for please?
