East Commonlands Tunnel
 
It's awesome that we use EC tunnel for all our auctions (I know some live servers would use GFay, which is lame), but I don't get why everyone stands at the mouth of tunnel. When I played on Tribunal everyone hung out by Shady. Just seems more appropriate, and easier to tell people where you were since there were some actual landmarks.

..because telling someone you're at 'tunnel ent' followed by a /tar *name* is hard?

This is a reason EQ is/was so special. Every server had something unique about it. On Torvonillous, the EC tunnel was exactly like it is here.

Never even thought about doing that, I have a hard time finding someone in the tunnel sometimes. Didn't think Target pointed you towards the target, maybe if you follow that command with /autofollow.

My original server never used the tunnel. We used north Freeport for bank and more vendor access. I liked it that music plays there and that overall you have more to do and see. Evil races I think had some issues but ran to the yard behind the jade.

Brell was close to this except people would always use "first torch" and "second torch" as landmarks.

"Tunnel ent" is just as much of landmark as Shady or T1 (first torch) or whatever. Tunnel entrance is more convenient than going all the way to Shady.

Never understood the GFay alternative on some servers, but if it weren't for MM, I'd propose sinking Faydwer... worthless pile of dung it is.

It doesn't point you, and follow only works if you're grouped.

I motion to move auction area to North Freeport where it was on the most classic of servers! (Mithaniel Marr)

Gfay 4 life. Hardcore servers ran faymart.



Honestly gfay prob evolved due to the amount of elves dorfs and gnomes with good classes compared to humans and darkies.
