Thanks, but I got the earring that I wanted. No EC required. Eivy was selling one in EC the following day, so apparently he got lucky on a subsequent spawn.

I probably would have given more slack to a true noob, but a L60 epic ranger in a guild that raids should know how this stuff works. I felt a tiny bit bad until I found out that he's just farming Hadden for plat. I'm sorry if some of you guys do that too, but I just think it's a little lame.

I'm an officer in Azure Guard. My principal characters are Grizluk and Drogun, but I play many others. Most people in Azure Guard are genuinely gracious and kind, but I tend a bit more toward the anti-social. I only expect people, including myself, to play by the rules.

I did something similar to this... to myself :S

I was playing my wizard, and was pretty happy having just handed in a set of four gnoll scrolls in Qeynos. Naturally I grab 100pp as small change for any adventures before gating out to North Karana.


When I got in zone I couldn't move. Checked auto run... nope. Checked esdf... nope. Checked mouserun... nope. Checked inventory... oops.

Unfortunately I deposited that 100pp into my copper instead of my plat and was encumbered in place in NK just where the griffons like to pass.

Fortunately, I had a cunning plan!

Luckily I was bound in a zone with a bank. My plan, cunning as it was, was to gate back to that zone and spam shadowstep until I could find an NPC to open a trade window with. Then, whilst the trade window held the weight I could run out of trade distance in the direction of the bank.

I continued like this for some time, spamming shadowstep and hope to end up at an NPC closer to the bank than the previous, opening a trade window with it then running as far as I could to the bank until the trade window closed and I was once again encumbered.

It was quite the adventure, taking quite some time. Fortunately I didn't have to destroy that 100000 copper as the plan in the end worked!

Definitely should belong to the guy camping Hadden, even if he had to use the bathroom. This looks like a KS to me.

If he was there when you got there, yes for sure.

We need a new subforum category for lawyer questing.

Maybe add polls that would lead to a community-lead arbitration ruling.
this is actually a fantastic idea

this type of thing happens and is endemic of the server.

I was on my lvl 40 alt duoing the ss camp in droga. We were clearing the entire circle around ss's room and ss's room. aftermath necro ran by while we were in the pool room pulling / killing goblins. tell us that we lost the camp because we left. gms take to long to respond and we eventually leave for the night despite still killing everything we were but the ss room.

I was leveling my main and was duoing frenzy and ce and lower frenzy pops venerate shm and monk runs in and says its his and we can get fucked because we were fighting spiders we pulled from the very top for xp. I argue with them and they eventually leave but he still got a bracer off frenzy.

I can go on but those are the most recent. Happens like once a month to me so its annoying but not a big enough problem to get upset about. I never rules lawyer people out of their camp and I have had opportunities to. I just ask when they think they will be gone and to let me know when they leave so I can take the camp.

pretty certain that isn't how it works. i believe they are supposed to ask you which area you would like to keep..

where do people get this idea that they can pick for someone else? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Because everyone going every which way with their own interests and the fact people love to troll just to troll makes this such a wonderful idea, right?

The server is overrun with people that have poor understanding of the rules. Then those people use their own wrong interpretations to kick others out of camps, take their named spawns, etc like what happened to snergle. This is why a community poll of illiterates might not be in the best interest of anyone.
