It's ironic you are defending ffa in game, but being butthurt about it here. People get called out on the forums all the time. Deal with it.
Who said anything about ffa? I said fte.

I used to sell cloaks for people, but realized that was more trouble than it was worth due to people sniping Quillmane.

One time, I spent like 40 minutes and couldn't find Quillmane, which was pretty odd. Usually, I'd see him every 15 to 20 minutes after killing placeholder triggers. I'm running around the zone, and I finally find a level 21 ranger bow kiting Quillmane around. I let him know I've been killing placeholders and running the zone to track him, but the ranger just responds with "FTE" as a response. He then spends 20 minutes killing the mob since he has to snare Quillmane, fire the bow, and then run and sit to regen hp he loses when Quillmane catches him. I asked if he would leave future Quillmanes alone, and he responds, "No, I will track and FTE Quillmane if I see him pop onto my track." I indicate that I will stop killing placeholders; he responds, "I don't care, I'm in South Karana to level."

This other time, I was going to help a warrior in Forceful Entry get a cloak...probably like 2 years ago, and some people in a defunct-guild (who no longer play) screwed with me and the guy in Forceful Entry. The FE guy said he had someone watching the hermit hut spawn point, but that person was going to leave soon. Sure enough, I head to the spawn point and someone from defunct guild is covering the spawn point. I ask the guy at the hermit hut if he is helping the Forceful Entry warrior; he does not respond. I figure he must be afk, so I run to the next spawn point while the warrior is killing placeholders. At this spawn point is another defunct-guild person I didn't know was there, and similarly he doesn't respond to any tells. I run to the final spawn location and there's a third defunct-guild member. This guy responds and indicates he doesn't know anything about the Forceful Entry warrior, but he's there to watch the spawn point for the guy at the hermit hut, who needs a cloak. I guess these three people swindled the warrior and convinced him to kill placeholders while they reaped the fruits of his labor. ...This was the tipping point that made me stop doing the camp and the beginning of my negative impression of the P99 community.

If you sniped a Quillmane from someone you know was actively working to spawn Quillmane, especially if you used my guide, fuck all y'all.
Quillmane is truly the bastion of the dregs of the community, unfortunately. I've sold/given away many cloaks as well, over fifty by now, and so I've gotten my fill of the general scenario, and this post sums up my feelings as well.

One example, there was a 60 wizard from Doljo who used to log in specifically when I was in SK farming cloaks. As in they would /who all me, wait for me to be there, then log in and try to steal it. This occurred on like five separate days. I would have one person on each spawn point, and me killing triggers, and he'd sit himself and a buddy or two right on top of the spawn points and flat KS quill when she popped. Later he evolved into aggroing every mob in SK and kiting them around, presumably assuming he was blocking me from spawning it. One time he had a massive train of every animal in SK on him, he ran up to a 80% quillmane, nuked it, killstole it, it had a cloak and he sat on the corpse - I guess waiting for his friend to arrive to loot it - and while sitting on the corpse, the train of greens on him slowly whittled away until he died and we got the cloak. A level 60 wizard.

The sad thing, had he just asked me on day 1, I would have gotten him a cloak no problem. Instead he wasted days and got nothing. This is just one example too, I've really learned that trolls are literally part of the experience farming Quillmane, sadly. I've had to explain the dreaded "FTE" to groupmates and what it means, and see the confused reactions, as if they can't believe that the rule seemingly exists to protect the trolls in this particular case.

Me, I mostly just find it humorous. I try to avoid that zone when anyone even thinks they're "camping Quillmane" even if they're clueless. But it's a great place to get a taste of why some people speak of this games' community the way they do.

You sure you want to be judged that way yourself? Are you truly that confident in your personal perfection? Seems to me that anonymous forum sniping is a lot shittier than one inadvertent training incident.

Zander's a good guy. If something he does causes you problems in-game take it up with him in-game.
Once? You must have missed all of the complaints about bard zone monopolization. This idiot is just as guilty as the next bard. Are you guilded with him or something? You seem to have some white knight left on your chin after so vehemently defending the guy who has no problem degrading the playing experiences of others.

So, you're a level 60 bard killing a level 30 named mob to increase your pixel hoard... and you're complaining about a level-appropriate ranger facing a level-appropriate and challenging encounter, who's trying to progress his character with a meaningful item...

Zander you're a scumbag - the problem with the P99 community is hoarder neckbeards like you.
