This thread reminded me of the story of Icarus so I looked it up https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Icarus...%20of%20Crete.

Now I no longer care about the story of Icarus, I'm much more fascinated by his father Daedalus who's story is intertwinded with the origin story of cuckoldry. Did you know the original Bull was actually a bull? and that it was cuckoldry that birthed the Minotaur? I can't believe this was lost for 25 years in the EQ lore.
wait, so who was fucking a bull in steamfont then?

2 things all sketch in this. 1. This guild taxes you. 2. You can sell dkp for plat. When I look at that all I see is “ hi nothing to see here we don’t rmt”

Best guilds reward participation. Encourages more which eventually earns more rewards.

Hmm, you know it's a fair point on it's face, but I'm not sure an RMT scheme would work for this. While you could definitely fudge guild records and be like "see, the plat person A got was for DKP they transferred to Person B" in practice Person A would've needed to be a member of Lineage during that time and have accumulated DKP. So there's no real viable way to make this work since it's not like all the people trying to buy plat from you are going to be longer term Lineage members.

Interesting take.

Would love to hear your thoughts on taxation versus inflation and how it impacts economic purchasing power of normal citizens, your thoughts on dictatorships selling natural resources while barring their citizens from engaging in for profit economies, and your thoughts on actual ownership versus gaining access to assets via debt.

Joseph was the original cuck.
Mary was the original ho.
Jesus the original bastard.

Just to be clear:

1. It seems like OP is still correct based on the written rules. If the rules are wrong, you honor them and then fix them for the next time.

2. The way you deal with last-minute sleeper bids is to not close the auction until some fixed time after the last bid. It is not to close auctions randomly.

3. The whole concept of the discord auction closing because of a quake sounds terrible. The controversy was self-inflicted by the people who made such a rule in the first place.

Best religion is the one that at it's inception is an act of forgiveness.

What a perfect book.

Don't fight me. It's rude and pointless and nobody wants to hear it, Duik.
