If you are someone who purchases MQ or if you are, or know someone, who farms trivial content to sell MQs that ultimately denies classic eq experience to progressing players, there is hope.

The dumbest things on p99
Multi-questing
FTE Racing (literally subjected the whole server to this bullshit because like 3-6 guys thought they were going to get more loot for themselves).
Chardok
I am still amazed sometimes that they got rid of Chardok. I also have always been impressed with p99s anti-boxing stance.
MQ just needs to be removed whole cloth for the same reason boxing needs to be. It's skipping content. Making things easier than they should be. Making your ability to farm pixels better than it should be. It's cheating -- that simple.
The whole fucking point of bind on pick up is that you have to do that shit yourself. Your not supposed to be that easy.

lol @ anti-MQers
If MQs get disabled then people just sell loot rights. The amount of socking required to get something like that done is way higher than with the current regime. If it's harder to find a buyer then prices will adjust accordingly, and the usual farmers still won't have any incentive to give up camps. Shit will just get worse

yes, which is why it will never happen

Skarlorn. I used to love to whine on this topic. I especially hate the shaman epic MQers, just because they cock block it deliberately just so they can charge as much as they want for the tear. Man, used to be 30k. now? 75-100k.
This is pure unadulterated greed of the neckbeard here. Just pathetic.
Anyway. Complaining about this here on the forums full of neckbeardery is like going to a rib festival and holding a sign that says VEGAN ONLY. You will only illicit simple minded insults and trite comments that add nothing to the reality of the situation.
***Rib festival might not be good analogy. How about, going into a crack house and holding a sign that says "SAY NO TO DRUGS!" They just don't care about others or their experiences in the game, all these pixel addicts care about is more plats into their pockets.

Just an FYI. My cleric was the first character I created on this server and all she needed was a chardok thing to finish her epic. I have no interest in playing her anymore so I decided to try and sell it. I've been a part of one single ragefire kill in my entire p99 career.

I just dont get how a cleric could have trouble getting an epic, dont you and your guilds take care of your clerics on blue? On red if you are a cleric you get an epic for free from your guild, because red players sympathize with the most cucked little dicked horrible class to play.
Why are clerics buying epics??? seems like the culture on blue is the problem, not the mechanics.

agreed, i guess this is why my sentiment is to encourage people not to participate in buying MQs for their leveling clerics.
I'm not sure if that's really what happens anymore, but i remember when I was leveling a lot of clerics basically just decided they'd shell out the 20k for a ragefire heart. Assuming this is still the case.

all that will do is lower the price for the people that dont stop.
IMO there is no way to change the real world virtual economy we have on these servers, other than nerfing them and making the game more like world of warcraft.
either love the game for the emergent mechancis that make it fun to play 5+ years without expansions, or play another game IMO it doesnt make sense to turn this into live for the same shortsighted reasons that daybreak did, or blizzard.
the truth is, yes of course you're right, MQ does hurt the game, but it hurts it by making people that it bothers leave, to play other games, that are more casual.. then the few sickos that play here for 5 years, its working great.
This game works all these years later, because of the broken mechanics casuals are upset about.

Dear Castamere quested this Epic for his very own Cleric. But the Gods of Norrath called Dear Castamere to a different vocation. He righteously abandoned the cleric and laid it to rest.
It is with great joy that he can now proffer the sacred Water Sprinkler to a young cleric whose growth is sanctined by the Gods of Norrath.
In fact, this MQ has passed the test of RNF.
Buy it NOW!
That was one hell of a thread bump my man. In the name of good sportsmanship, i'll be offering a 10k discount to the young cleric interested. However they must pass a test and present either myself or the hobbit with a token of good faith. Perhaps the head of a dark elf would work.

I'd offer that the inability to do the quest yourself, due to a long MQ seller camp line, is why it needs addressing.
If you're an actual cleric without an epic you should be able to kick these goons off the mobs.

I will give a very short version of it. I was going to post a log but i will not. I will also be very biased on me telling what went down. For the RNF ofcourse :). Hamor joined us on his shaman. Asked me if was good idea to sell a Cleric EPIC to help pay for his shaman epic. After a short discussion encouraging him to just contribute to the raid force so we can engage it more often more efficiently w.e and he would get it soon enough. I did however offer to if he wanted to, kill RF for him on his cleric let the guys roll on loot and he could sell his MQ... As just selling a cleric MQ alone is almost atrocious enough when we had several that needed. I advised him his best bet would be to camp the turn in mob and get the timer so we could have a reasonable idea of when to have a few guys ready to help him when it popped next time. rage fire popped on a early Sunday morning after Hamor faced it for over 18 hours. It was my daughters birthday so i wasnt able to help him when it popped. I told him I was sending a guild alliance group of 60's to come turn in there pearl, in return the alliance would be on call for the next spawn and we all agreed to ignore our own clerics needs and allow him to loot it for MQ as he did the work to get timer. He had apparently a few friend or something out of guild he was gunna give the loot to (rustle) for killing it for him right then. Well my alliance showed up first and got the kill and told me they be rdy for the next one for him. Well he left the guild and told me i screwed him over by not giving him the first pearl! here is a short log of me telling him the plan before hand.

[Sun Jun 04 17:43:04 2017] Khaall -> hamor: i wanted to help ya out was my goal
[Sun Jun 04 17:43:10 2017] Khaall -> hamor: i dont need any of the loot

Ofcourse he realized his mistake and rejoined the guild for the kill which we got NP!
4 days later he releft again.

Let the council decide!
Too long; didn't read. Judging for the plaintiff in the amount of 500 dollars.
You give him the ok to sell his cleric epic in order to fund his shaman epic. Hamor also does all of the leg work in order to get rf. Dude gets screwed over on first one. Rage quits the guild. Comes back after cool off period. Leaves guild again for unclear reasons after getting second rf. Then gets shit for selling the MQ he got the ok to sell in the first place.
Am I following this correctly?

If you consider "screwed over" following exactly what the plan was from the beginning. Which was to have him get timer so we could be ready the second the time it popped. Now granted I know Hamor sat there and faced it forever and was upset that we weren't able to come help him when it popped the first time. Which he obviously wanted to and I did want to help him with was just a bad timing on pop. The second time we engaged it he didn't even use his own Pearl. So he got the epic on his cleric and the MQ to sell for his shaman. The thorn in my side mostly comes from not at least leaving the now unwanted clickie cleric in guild for maybe a favor here and there. Or for even attending one raid with either of the toons we were helping. Or from not making a donation to the guild bank for making the kill, allowing him to loot for his epic, and to keep the Pearl to MQ. Really just entertainment for the RNF. Just giving the guy a little shit from an old wound.

A lot of slippery slope bullshit about might as well play Live. For all of Live's faults, there were some positive changes that actually made the game better.
It wasn't changes to a few game mechanics that turned Live to shit. It was each expansion making all previous expansions obsolete that killed it.
It won't happen here, but maybe someday someone will start a server that aims to create the feel of classic, but doesn't adhere to easily exploited mechanics.

I was under the impression me and Khaall were on the same page. Evidently not. You guys have all the evidence you need I suppose. Probably a mute point as I doubt anyone's going to touch my trades with a ten foot prod at this point. Was fun I guess.
I hope wrecking crew is already reaching out to Hamor. Guy has a shaman and cleric (both prereqs) and hustles MQs hard. Not 60 on shaman but maybe cleric?

*Storms into the courtroom and takes his seat at the High Council of RNF, followed by an obviously star-struck maskedmelonpai whose "court stenography" has denigrated into kawaii pictures of elves and boobs*
By the powers that have never been vested in me, I am here to present my ruling on the case of Khaall Drogo (Plaintiff) vs. Castamere (Defendant).
It is somewhat apparent from very confused anecdotes that Castamere secured Rage timer and had a chance to turn in pearl. He informed the Khaall of this fact, but the raid force Khaall sent stole took Ragefire from Castamere.
There was a brief time of separation before a passionate reconciliation.
Castamere proceeded to secure a second Ragefire, and this time Khaall Drogo's <Second Sons> showed up. They supplied a pearl to Ragefire, killed the dragon, giving the still-beating dragonheart to Castamere in order to fund his shaman epic quest. The Sons raped the corpse of its remaining treasures.
Castamere then abandoned the <Second Sons> in less than a week.
Here the evidence becomes unclear. Did Castamere proceed to use his second pearl to create another Ragefire kill? Has he looted a secondary heart while creating an epic'd cleric? Based on the evidence at hand, it seems he has done so. Defendant rested his case without enumerating this fact and I fear it will work against him.
Plaintiffs argument is that Castamere should then have reciprocated by donating to the Second Sons, or perhaps leaving his "unwanted epic cleric" in the guild is ruled as a MISTRIAL.
As everyone knows, it is standard operating procedure for a Ragefire socker to exchange the extra Ragefire loot for the help of a greater force to slay the dragon. Castamere camped Ragefire not once, but twice. While he did not use his own Pearl for the Heart, Khaall's inability to control his Alliance with the evil guild <Veloci Shift> is the basis of this mistrial.
HOWEVER:
I. The court finds Castamere guilty of being Kind of a Dick as he abandoned the <Second Sons> mere days after achieving his epic lewtz. While this behavior is characteristic in the Dark World of P99, it should not be encouraged or rewarded.
The Council's verdict is that Castamere will be branded on his left butt-cheek marking him as Kind of a Dick.
We are not, however, without mercy. Should Castamere create another Ragefire spawn with his own pearl and donate the heart to the <Second Sons> or to another cleric in need, this brand will magically be erased and he will return to the good graces of the Forums.
II. The Council finds Khaall Drogo in DIRECT VIOLATION OF THE PROJECT 1999 NAMING CONVENTIONS AND SUGGESTS TO GMs IMMEDIATE SUSPENSION OF HIS ACCOUNTS, DISSOLUTION OF HIS GUILD, AND PUBLIC SHAMING UNTIL HE HAS RENAMED ALL TOONS TO BE IN ACCORD WITH OUR LAWS

Amusing though I technically never rejoined the sons on Hamor. But that's only because I didn't run into an officer before me and my friends decided to part ways with the guild for good. I tagged my cleric but we all knew I wasn't planning on playing her. Also Khaall decided to show up for the second attempt on his own free will. I did not know that gift came with a requirement to rejoin all though I did feel compelled to afterwards. The court has decided so consider this my last words?

I guess it's time to embrace this. Price down to 50k for the entire mq. 40k if you bring me a halfling head. http://wiki.project1999.com/Halfling_Head
The 20k discount makes up for ragefire. The halfling head is to keep skarlorn up at night.
Any trades with me will be discreet and will have no returning address.

I agree with the devs stance than no ones internet connection or pc could handle a zone wide AE without lagging out and disconnecting.
Except they could, not everyone's, but it was possible. I witnessed it happening back in 2000. Had to go to my friends house to play with the bard though, as my rig/connection couldn't handle it and my friends could. The thing I never witnessed though was "FTE races" and training the entirety of ToV to tag a single mob out. Never ever saw that happen on my server. But apparently, shits classic.

It's like certain styles of writing not everyone enjoys the same thing. While you and I might find Skarlorn's style of writing highly entertaining Papi might not agree.

Red is actually so great that only about 7 to 12 actual humans can enjoy it at once.

Are we upset that you cant sell a cleric epic for 60K the fucking shaman one is around 120k. anyone need a port 10k per person. lol
