View Full Version : A challenge and a liquidation event

Currently at the IRS offices praying they don't find out about my Seychelles accounts.

Therefore have time to make a challenge to all dank saturated plates clothed ringed jeweled true gamers on this spaceship towards full elfmersion.

Server is mature. Most avid players have two of what they want.

Why spend all time only raiding? Why not more filbus v llandris type shenanigans?

Why not guild guild battles? Go turn them books in boys.

Why not guild of high elves declaring war on disgusting, awful to look at, gnomes and ravaging all of shithole akanon until some brave responders come?

Or the goon squad (all evil races) from classic days getting together and slaughtering meatbags in Freeport and commons until some misguided paladins rise up?

There is still fun to be had. Not all of can be so dank as to break the fourth wall, challenge a divine as a mortal, and have skeletons drop coins in their pockets.

But we can sure try.

On a side note, and I hope the first one above is taken more seriously, I need to do this before the IRS arrests my ass:

Life work etc. means no more gaming eq for awhile for me. I lost my brother a couple years ago, and eq was a game we played as a kid, which is why I got back into it. It helped me get through a tough time and absorbed my efforts and thoughts so they weren't spent in grief. Also helped me connect with the memory of him. Now I must set it aside for the time being (but it will always be the GOAT. I'll come back at some point).

Met a lot of lovely friends, who I don't know physically but really do consider true friends.

I want to liquidate my pixels/give them away instead of letting them rot.

I have two options for my to be liquidated toons
Emchanter and Bard

A.) Go to tunnel with both toons Charo(bard) tomis(chanter) and do give away rolls or Dutch auction on everything. This isn't ideal because people who want to stop up the economy will have a chance to do it more getting this free stuff. If you want a Dutch auction make your case or propose a better idea of liquidation we can enjoy together.

B.) If you ever helped me with anything (quest, item, exp grouping for awhile, my guild) reply here, remind me of the nostalgia and who you are, and I will shovel stuff straight into your pockets and heart. This is preferable.

Let me know you gamers.

Edit: why is there that red thumb symbol on this thread? I am forum newb you can tell because of large bat. Plus the oldest thing about this experience isn't the simulator it's the freaking forum board holy shit 90s websites throw back immerssion

I come and go on here every couple of years. Every time I'm back, I'm grateful all my stuff is untouched and as it was.

If you do plan on returning, why liquidate everything? Even if you go on a 3 year hiatus you will appreciate coming back to equipped characters.

I appreciate the sentiment. I'd enjoy starting from 0 if I did come back to p99

great call to action for people to do shit other than the autistic raiding

unfortunately, many people who play here regularly are autistic and/or drug addicts

Don’t give away ur shit. Give me access to your toons and I’ll hold them for you until you come back.

Everyone always comes back.

As an enchanter who just started on this server on Feb 25 and finally made it to level 18 I'd gladly participate in a loot casino in the hopes of getting something useful for my career in the game.

Good idea ^

Didn't Speedi say the last X-mas event was his "last hurrah" though? Not sure there will be another one.

Although i never met you, your story damn near brought a tear to my eye it hit a little too close to home. A shame you feel you have to ditch the players but I probably couldn't quit unless i did the same so respect.

aw man the feels. Sometimes these things that can seem childish to others can really help us get through some bad times. I was riddled with an illness for over a year, and would come home from work completely in pain, and playing around on this has been such a nice break for me to forget about it and remember simpler times. Got my enchanter all the way to 41, which was 1 level more than I ever got my ranger on live. Good luck with the future!

Find some relative newbie to the game. Give them all your stuff. Someone did this for my druid and it really made me love playing her so much more. It wasn't anything ridiculous, crystal chitin and other gear you could buy without MQ'ing, but to someone in rawhide, it was amazing. I felt like I'd hit the lottery.

Sad to see you go, and if indeed you will be away for a time, yeah giving away your stuff is honestly liberating.

We all play for many different reasons, and for me it is mostly to reminisce my time before my self imposed exile, reminding me of a country that is no more and all the friends and family I have lost over time due to the slow disintegration of my homeland, the now torn apart country of Venezuela.

When I began Playing EQ my life was vastly different, almost like a surreal fantasy, and playing EQ is the only thing that makes me grasp a bit of what once was.

Give your stuff away to newbies and if something is left, anything a druid could use would be great haha, I practically have almost the same gear since level 10, currently in my 40s.:D

If not, no matter, hope you are ok and perhaps you will return to this server in the future and enjoy life in the quiet and peace that the music, the ui and the weird simple 3d models this game offers to everyone for free.;)

May you find peace and something to soothe your soul in your future journeys fellow Everquester, we the eternally bound to the glory of the old days, salute you!

Much love from the Isthmus!:)

If you must go you must! Sorry to hear about your brother but cool if you were able to use p99 therapeutically to deal with that. id vote for you to give them to Speedi or find a genuine noob who will use them.

For the mediocre stuff charm mobs in non-guard zones like crush bone or mistmoore and spread the items out between those mobs.

Don't give away in ec, that is where greedy alter hang out instead of earning their way through the world.

Might help to tell people your in-game name(s) so they have any clue whom you are.

So are you planning a certain time for your liquidation event? Or are you just randomly online?
