Or even give him the heart out of good will. But that would take away plat from their banks, so no way in hell would that happen.
PNP or not, it's not realistic to expect people to go out of their way to be selfless every time someone else needs/wants something. There's two sides to every story, we're only hearing one side of things here, everyone loves to pile on and point fingers at the evil machine on the forums, etc etc.

No one is yelling at you that there are poor noobs getting killed in crushbone right now but you're trying to sell your druid instead of going to cb and spending all of your free time helping them. Why are you yelling at Zagum and co for doing what amounts to the same thing (i.e. doing what they want to do instead of trying (and failing) to do what everyone else wants them to do)?

Lyra there are lots of legitimate things to complain about regarding the raid scene, but the state of the cleric epic is not one of them. I guarantee you if you join any high-level guild, even a casual one, you'll have your epic before you hit 55.

Besides the point, thats about the only thing I ever did on my druid. Was go to zones like Mistmoore and CB and buff groups while Afk. Thats not the point though.
What I'm trying to point out is that leapfrogging and general douchebaggery is allowed here. Ragefire spawned this morning at around 7am and was uncontested. Divinity being in lair did not have enough people to take it alone, so we offered our assistance to Europa by helping clear giants and what'not.

Theres really no other side of the story, other than, "We (tmo) was here first and we dont care that your are clearing giants, as long as we turn in first its ours. The big deal here is they are doing it for MQ sales, and Europa was doing it for a player who didnt have epic. Spin all you want, the assholes already made their selves apparent in the 100 other times they have done this.

Wow, I've seen some terrible analogies, but that is pretty cringe worthy.

If Lan was running around CB leap frogging noob groups for Emp Crush I might be able to see it, but the scenario you've presented makes zero sense at all.

The people who invented the first space ships were brilliant. That doesn't mean anybody should actually want to use them 200 years later. Ideas are limited by means of execution. Everquest has amazing ideas that need to be completely reworked in their execution, in order for classic Everquest as it was envisioned to actually exist and continue to be relevant as things have evolved.

Just a quick correction to the OP: We didn't kill Magus Rokyl, we were busy with the last two guards when the two "players" aforementioned logged into the lair and got Magus aggro upon logging in, killed him and were able to trigger Ragefire before we could.

I am not going to comment any further, as I am convinced that the likes of those "players" take their motivation directly out of the frustration they cause other players.

The whole incident motivated me to go out wakeboarding on the lake, to remind myself how unimportant a few pixels are [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Not much of a leapfrog if they logged in already in the lair (so it wasn't like they needed you to get rid of the fire giants before they could get in there) and they killed a mob with 3 (while you were many more than 3 it sounds like and only had 2 mobs to deal with) and STILL triggered RF before you did (even though you could have turned in pearl and had 20 minutes before you needed to kill the spawn).

I still think it was shitty what happened, but it was hardly a "OMFG TMO LIVES TO RUIN THE LIVES OF THE REST OF US" that so many forum-goers would like it to be.


I need a new forum name. Wonder if The Devil's Advocate is taken.

The casual player's plight is a difficult one, but there have been instances where TMO do help out the smaller guilds...I guess this instance wasn't one of those times.

I hope the OP tries again, I still need to do the Chardok Royals and Ragefire parts for mine - hoping I don't encounter too much drama [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Nerfed post Velious, several times. Servers were lucky to have 6 by the time Velious came out, some had none. This server has scores and scores with them being auctioned fairly regularly in the ECT.
