Default NO TRADE = NO DROP, TEMPORARY = NO RENT

This is a simple change to make, if you wanted a more-classic implementation on item descriptions. When this is file is re-released with a patch, it will be updated.

Until then, if you want to change this yourself:

Thanks Nilbog!
I suggest using SciTE to edit text files. An open source text editor that can show white-space and line endings, and my favourite: search/replace using regular expression

That isn't doable on your side? I was wondering why I remembered these things differently and when they were changed in Live. They were pretty cool lingo man. I want a shirt that says No Drop or No Rent on it, yeah!

Figured this was a semi-appropriate place to ask: What's the timer on NO RENT items expiring while logged? 30 minutes?

I tried editing eqstr_us.txt with Windows Notepad and ended up breaking the file. I think it was something to do with the file format (ANSI vs. Unicode vs. UTF-8).
