Issue: Currently, PCs are not able to activate /say quest prompts while sneaking behind the NPC quest giver. The /say while sneaking ability was removed in the last year, as it was previously usable on Blue and Beta.
This greatly impacts sneaking races/classes and their ability to do these quests that are otherwise unavailable without significant faction work.
Resolution: Reverse prior change and allow NPCs to respond to /say prompts while the PC is properly sneaking behind the NPC.
Particular quests of note that this issue affects:
http://wiki.project1999.com/Coldain_Prayer_Shawl_Quests
Specifically, the Thurgadin Gate portion. You are supposed to be able to get the Velium Purifier from Frundle Frenklar by saying to her 'What velium vial?' This does not work while sneaking behind Frundle to achieve an indifferent faction status with her.
http://wiki.project1999.com/Thex_Mallet_Quest
You are unable to say to Kizdean Gix, 'Utalk Adarev Otcin,' while sneaking behind him in order to receive the a tattered cloth note.
http://wiki.project1999.com/Velium_Retrieval
You are not able to say to Sentry Kale, “I will deliver the supplies” to get the Velium Delivery Note. This should be doable with indifferent faction via sneak.
Evidence:
These relate to Thurgadin Gate Potion:

Nice guide. Made my first gate potion last night with 3 back-ups
ready. Sneaking while kos in thurgadim was absolutely no problem. Took
about 2 hours from getting the items to completion.
No, it's not a faction thing... I'm apprehensive and have to sneak too.
It's probably a spelling thing, it's "vapors", not "vapours".

I would just like to add a note that faction does factor into this -
obviouxly as monks it makes no difference because we can sneak - but
to other classes that read this thread if you tell Frundle Frenkler
and your faction is ay aprhensive then she will not give you the
purifier.
…
I know its been covered but hitting sneak and hailing the Frundle (sp) dorf worked fine for me.

Rogues can obtain it with apprehensive faction by sneaking behind her
and saying "what vial of velium vapors"

Yes, sneak works for her, I am apprehensive in Thurg, but when I sneak she gives me the purifier.

You do need to have good faction with Frundle in order to get the Velium Purifier. I didn't know about that until I actually tried to do the quest, hehe. It seemed to take a good 50 or so giants/wolves to get faction to the right level, but I am really just guessing.
…
Not if your a Vah Shir, you can just shrink, and sneak behind her.

lol You don't even have to shrink, just sneak behind her.

Velium Vapors -- this gates you to the Bridge in Thurgadin and is an
awsome thing for Meleee who are not kos in Thurg.
These have saved me hard ship more than once. This is the Thurgaden
Gate potion, any one can make and use with a pottery skill of about
120 or 130. (the trivial is between those i think) This is an item
required for the Thurg Shawl quests and can be done with indifferent
faction. (maby less but I used sneak with my monk before he had good
faction)
Another site using sneak to get Velium Purifier, http://bowandarrow.org/#/gate-potions/4514327589
1) Hail Frundle Frekner in Thurgadin and say to her 'what vial of velium vapors'. She will then hand you a container which will you need to combine your final vial. You do need to have indifferent faction in THurgadin, or above, to get her to give you one of these without objection…however do not worry if you don’t, as if you sneak up to her and then ask her for the vapors, she will still give them to you. (Sneak can be useful sometimes!)

If your faction isn't at or above indifferent, you have to sneak
behind Kale to get the quest:
You say: 'Hail, Sentry Kale'
You're looking for this reply: 'Perhaps you wish to prove that you are
a friend of the Kin'
