Definitely allowed on current live.

There is no such thing as grouping in EQ anymore unless it's with yourself

It's impossible to re-create the classic experience ... sadly. Every time I see a non-paladin get a Soulfire I cry a little on the inside.

But the thing is, if the devs started "fixing" that, they'd "fix" epic MQs next. Then they'd "fix" Chardok AE groups, which weren't common on live back then, but absolutely did exist (my friend did them). And then they'd "fix" ... well you get the idea. They'd never finish, because no matter what they "fix" nothing can leech our collective knowledge of EQ from the internet and our brains.

So, rather than shoot for a server with a classic experience and classic mechanics, and wind up with neither, they shoot for what they can actually achieve: classic mechanics.
I don't think it's the gm's responsibility. I think it could easily be handled by self restraint. Thing is, for some reason, people really can't get enough plat. I personally don't think this should be so monetized, but clearly people have bought in. I have done the cleric epic twice in my life, I plan on doing it again. I don't care how many rage fire spawns I have to compete at for turn in. I just don't want to miss the opportunity to earn it. How many other chances am I going to get? Does it sucks that it's so heavily contested? Yes. Doesn't make buying it not lame to me. I think the whole fangs thing is similar in a way. The issue is greed. If you see people there, don't take every mob in the zone just because you're higher level and can clear it while some lowbi group has to go one mob at a time. But, once again, greed(and laziness).

This doesn't need a "non-classic" fix. They just need to bring the quest reward in line with classic and people will leave the damn gnolls alone after lvl 12 - 15. People don't do this at 20+ because its easy, they do it because its really good exp.

What about getting a ton of zip from green mob drops is not easy?

Sorry, I meant on live during the classic era. You are (*sigh*) correct about live currently.

Research completed.

post on bugs forum

hello Everyone. I will give some good Simple info. You can do 2 Quest with the teeth and there is other one that connects to it when you do one quest total of 3 Quest in 1.

Well 1st Quest is give 3 teeth at a time to the Warrior Trainer (its a Girl). She is located in Hallas. Give her 3 at a Time you get EXP, Factions, And she gives you food, torches, water and some other stuff.

2nd Quest is in Qeynos. Give 1 teeth at a time to captain Tillin on the balcony of the Arena called "The Grounds of Fate". He gives you EXP, Factions, and Mone Stones. If I remmember right every teeth is 1 moonstone.

The 3rd Quest Comes From the MoonStones. Go to the Bar by the Ports Its named Fish Ale. Something like that =). But its by the ports. Give 4 MoonStones to the Bar keeper in the Very Back of the store. (I forget his name). Give him 4 at at a time or 1, 2, 3, or 4 . I suggest 4 Because its Faster. And hi will give you some Beer. 1 stone = 1 Beer then when the beer stacks up you can sell it for 1 PP 3 Gold 7 Silver 4 Cop.
He will give you the Beer and EXP.

This Quest I think is a great one you get a hell of alot EXP. people under lvl 11 I highly recommend this Quest. I was lvl 13 when I knew about this and I have 93 Teeth lvled me up to lvl 14 and with 87 teeth it gave me 4 1/2 Orange Bubbles. Sweet Quest.

Well thats about It for this Gnoll Fang Quests.
If there is more to it I would like to know.
But this quest for me is no longer worth it I am to high of a lvl for this quest to even give me good EXP. I am lvl 19 now. But I used this quest even when I was lvl 17 and 18 its a good quest. Highly recommend it.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As you can see its was 180 fangs for just level 13 and most of 14. no way its supposed to be 300 fangs to go from 11 to 20 as it is here on p1999. obviously the xp for the fang quest is set way way to high here on p1999.

Free multiboxing was never allowed on live, and so it's perfectly accurate to ban it here too. Paid multiboxing did exist on live, but it's prevented here not by the devs, but by legal restrictions. This puts it in the same category as item links (ie. something the devs have no control over fixing).

As for rotations, those did exist on live, on some servers at least, so there's nothing un-classic about them. Of course, some servers didn't have them, making "rotation-less" classic also. We had a rotation-less server here for a long time, and now we have a system that's largely rotation-less for those who want it, and rotated for those that do. That's about as classic as you can get when the classic servers themselves were never in agreement in the first place.
Whether it's free or paid has nothing to do with why it's disallowed here... it's a free server, and it's disallowed for social reasons.

Enforced rotation with suspensions were never classic.

But I'm guessing you were already aware of the differences.
