He wasn't transferring. He was walking around dropping stuff on the ground all over the tunnel. Someone got a fungi and other stuff.

Did you get to keep the cloak or was it removed?

Hell, if someone was ragequitting or otherwise, I'd love free shit off of the ground.

In fact, if there was such a thing as a dumpster in EQ, my ass would be diving in that fucker all the time. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

He was just quitting, as far as I know. I haven't heard of anyone else getting banned for this.... Kinda messed up, imo.

Well, I'm banned...so I basically don't have the cloak or anything else.

Someone in my guild got in trouble for this too. He picked up a bag in the tunnel that was full of PoM cards. I'm not sure if his account got banned but I remember him saying he was in tells with a GM a day or two ago regarding it. He said something like the guy who dropped all the stuff WAS RMT'ing, but he was just trying to unload his inventory to scrub the account. This is all 2nd hand info so take the accuracy of any of that with a grain of salt, but I imagine this was the same incident. Hopefully the GM's can clear the mess up and unban you if you indeed did nothing wrong. IN GENERAL though good advice is if something is too good to be true, it is, and if a fungi, or a hiero cloak or whatever else literally falls out of the sky into your lap, it's probably dirty in some way.

I never seen someone dropping random nice items in the tunnel, but every great while someone comes through that is obviously liquidating a character's items by selling cheaply. If I buy from them and notice the cheap prices, I ask them if they are quitting or why are they selling stuff, and both times they guy said they were taking break from the game and just wanted to clean off some of their alts.

I always wondered to myself though if it was true, or if someone was cleaning off an account they had access to without permission. If this was the case, I don't see how you get banned when you unwittingly bought items thinking it was just good deals. Sometimes people actually do liquidate items cheaply for different reasons.

I guess that's the difference though, this stuff was just dropped freely?

I'm super confused ...

Is it against the rules to pick up or be given items ?

Is it against the rules to buy an item for a low price ?

I mean it sounds like I should just earn my gear from kills / quests, because I dont know much about prices and items, I just look for good deals when people sell shit in EC. And I guess at that I shouldn't accept any gear that people want to give me.
