I took a long break and just came but can't find anyone to transfer items to my alt

[Diabolic2442]

I took a long break from the game and recently came back. No one I had on my friends list still plays, how do I trust someone to transfer items for me? Should I first try to join a guild?

[Bruno]

I can transfer them for you just PM me when you want to do it.

You can't. But I'm as close to jesus as you're going to find around here. And I'm openly posting in server chat to assist you. So if I steal your gear you can go to the petition forums and open up a petition about it.

[Baler]

Find a level 60 in a well known guild and ask them nicely if they'd have time to help you transfer some items. Log file on, screenshot or record from start to finish.

[skarlorn]

How can I be sure you aren't setting me up for a fraud accusation?

[Swish]

You can't. But I'm as close to jesus as you're going to find around here.

Based on this post, I would sooner trust a logged in level 60 in the tunnel.

I'm sorry, did I need to use racial slurs and homophobic speech to be besties with you?

[Baler]

I was going to say something about Bruno's jesus comment...
With character names like Idol, Kombat and Juvenile. How could I ever think he's not a great guy. :rolleyes:
Boasting about violating the naming policy.

Agreed. Who would trust someone who likens themselves to a fictional character for which there are a grand total of zero contemporary first hand witnesses for outside of the bible that where actually alive when he was claimed to have lived?

That sounds like a rant or a flame, which isn't the purpose of this forum. Please PM me and we can talk about it <3

[LiQuid]

Your items are as good as gone if you trust them with anybody on this server. Unless you know someone in real life willing to create a p99 account to do the transfer for you, your best bet is just to find a secluded area, drop them on the ground and log over real quick on your other account (or do it in the tunnel if you're a true boss).

If you absolutely have to rely on another human to do it for you, you should at least take care to properly vet them. Get some form of real life identification so that you can track them down to confront them IRL if they steal your 40k fungi tunic from you. Be EXTREMELY careful tho because it's pretty easy to falsify documents for strangers over the internet. They could use a relative's information or worse just make something up and you'd be shit out of luck!

Good luck to you though man. I'd offer to help you out but I'm probably the least trustworthy person on this server. I've scammed people out of millions or possibly billions of plat worth of items so far by volunteering transfer services in the tunnel. It's crazy how people will trust you with items as valuable as a FUNGI tunic just because you're level 60 and in a reputable guild! People are way too trusting. :D

That's a nice story. I've been playing here a long time, and I've never had any problems transferring with random 50s/60s in reputable guilds. The only thing I feared with a transfer was bad plat or items that would get me flagged and banned. Being retired and only logging in to help people / tool around I don't really care that much anymore. I've never feared someone would steal my plat or items. I have utmost faith in the GMs here when it comes to taking out the trash in the community.

Bruno, I think you just fed the troll. From her signature she looks stuffed already.

Yea, I know he's trolling. Poor op is already paranoid though and doesn't know what a troll fest these forums are. He's just trying to get some items to another toon. Inside the game is a lot more cordial.

[Jimjam]

You're entirely right Bruno.

I don't mean any offense but how do I make sure you wouldn't just take my items?

He is a level 60 DARK ELF necromancer. Lets face it, having this character is a sunk investment and one is never going to get back.

Perhaps Bruno is just looking for an excuse to eat a ban so he can reroll iksar.

Some well founded paranoia, Diabolic! ;)

[Shrubwise]

OP is the Nigerian prince who just inherited 10 million and can't keep it all, will you help him get rid of it?

[Bruno]

You're entirely right Bruno.

I could never disrespect my necromancer like that :D. He's my baby. Would have to reroll de despite superior iksar race.

[Yasi]

I can help you. My charname is Lolmasterblasterrocket. He's a Level 1 human warrior and logged in EC tunnel. Just send me a message here.

[Tuurin]

Everybody knows if you need to find the cream of the crop on this server, just do a /who all bard. All bards can be trusted implicitly and are decent, upstanding citizens.

[Dreenk317]

I don't mean any offense but how do I make sure you wouldn't just take my items?

As has been said, it's a bannable offense. Just put stuff in trade window. Send a tell to them saying "transfer all these bags/items/and plat to character x" wait for them to say yes. And then hit trade. Make sure your logs are on. And if you have any trouble just file a petition with the logs and you will get your items back. Might take a while. But it will happen.

[Triiz]

It's already been mentioned but GM's ban people for "scamming". That's why people are so nonchalant about handing Puppet Strings (~200k item) to total strangers for OT hammers. There is essentially no risk involved for the owner of the strings.

If you transfer shit by dropping it on the ground, and someone roams by and picks it up you are fucked so don't do that with anything valuable. Just find someone that wouldn't want to risk their account being banned.

Lol pai, that's awesome.

Hello friend. Please give to me the items so that I may test the power of the attack. Rest assured I will return immediately.

Right, and in essence any trade you do with a stranger on the server should happen with a screenshot of the trade and any tells/messages leading up to it...particularly for larger items/plat amounts ^^

[Tpar]

Generally, if you find an officer of any of the major guilds, they will assist you. I'm usually on evenings, and if you contact me I or one of my officers will help you do the transfer.

[skarlorn]

I can help you transfer this IF you are ally to rivervale.

Just find a quiet corner and drop-transfer.

I've been drop transferring since 1999 and never lost an item, but I'm also really smart about where I do it.

Drop transferring in theory is a great method. It used to be my preferred method.
The Project1999 client can be shaky at times, particularly when switching between accounts, and especially if you use the Titanium client without WinEQ 2.0. That, and with some NPC's who pick up items off the ground, made me switch to finding another player to help transfer.

@OP, generally if you ask a high level politely, and take screenshots of every step of the transaction (I.e. when you ask, them agreeing, the items in the trade window, etc.) you should be safe. Higher levels have lots of time invested into the game, and are thus generally less likely to steal your items. That, and they most likely don't need them :)

And, if they do rip you off, you have screenshots and evidence and you can more than likely get some type of justice.

God speed.

That is sadly a fact. I have two instances of P99 on my desktop "transfer" and "normal".

The difference is:

Normal - runs at full resolution, but crashes on /camp like 80% of the time.
Transfer - Only runs in windowed mode, looks like shit, cuts off the bottom of my screen, etc, but never crashes on /camp.

Never heard of an NPC picking up items off the ground though.
