OP is my new favorite poster, but I think he missed the memo that this level of trolling should probably take place in RnF.

People have listed tons of good reasons to oppose this, but there is only one that matters: boxing, in any form, goes against the philosophy of those who own the server. Period.

Don't like it? Take a hike.

Umm, actually not a single legit reason was provided by a single person, despite umpteen vapid snark posts of nothing relevant.

Valid Reason #079 not being able to be logged into EC 100% of your playtime actually creates gaps with buyers and sellers creating an economy where people stand to make a little bit of plat buying and selling items. Creating more jobs and pathways for Norath citizens to become functioning members of society.

Make Norath great again!

You mean it makes it harder to sell stuff/buy and is unclassic.

Neither legit or good reasons. Double fail.

my god are you playing the same game as us? that is classic.... the game is hard. i remember running from quenos to EC at lvl 20 because i heard it was the place to buy and sell stuff. i died 2 times along the way, killed a few mobs for exp and it probably took me 2-3 rl days to actually accomplish this. this is as classic as it gets, deal with it. or play somewhere else.

Make Norath great again!

The system as it stands isn't classic anyway because of the low numbers on the servers. Hence the difficulty with buying and selling. Hence the suggestion.
I solved buying my spells by looking at logs and searching for people who were selling the required spells over the last few days and sending tells to them. You could do the same thing to sell spells as well.
It's a pretty bizarre an un-classic way to solve the problem though and breaks the "classic" just as badly IMO.

What I think is more of an issue is having to drop items on the ground and relog, assuming you dont know anyone well enough to trust them with a transfer.
I find it a problem, because although I can make friends, I tend to play for a while and then drop out for 6 months or a year and come back. Each time I come to a server where I don't know anyone and am faced with this dropping items on the ground issue.

I know we had to drop stuff in classic too. Wasn't part of classic I enjoyed, or want to come back to.

Then make your own server.

Personally I love drop transfers and I want them to stay, and I want coin drops to come back!

All of that sounds very "classic" to me. The population really isn't that low, either.

Worst part of dropping is getting back in time.
