I was fine with them nerfing the gnoll scrolls for a month. No one back in the day would’ve been able to accumulate that many scrolls because accounts cost money and plus of course knowledge was slightly less widespread in terms of quests. I don’t think they cared about the server first achievement, I think they cared about a guy doing something that would’ve been almost completely impossible back in the day.

There were at least two specific times in just the first year where they removed a quest NPC due to newly emergent behavior. A new server would open and people who knew these quest tricks would use them to get a lot of plat at a low level or level extremely quickly with no risk. The most notable one was the tumpy tonics quest. I can't remember the name of the other and it was far less known or bitched about but you simply pulled a guy all the way across the zone then zoned out and had someone spamming hails. then you had the 2 quest NPCs next to each other. Keep doing the turn in and make a small amount of coin.
In both cases the NPCs were removed from the game pending a proper fix. | ||

Who actually gives a fuck if someone turns in 10000000000~ scrolls? I don't. Doesn't affect your play, doesn't affect my play. What affects my play is no one being able to use the quests because of some weird concern how several individuals are going to level. It's fucking crazy! I had newbies in my guild not being able to turn in fucking bone chips! They took away a perfectly fine method for newbs to get some xp and help them level because of one guy. The screwed over hundreds and hundreds of players for no reason. Classique! | |||

I honestly thought ST or one of the other big guilds would have done exactly this -- by using a turbo leveling team feeding just a handful of people exp in order to perma hold it. but at the end of the day the staff is useless for raiding so makes sense it didn't happen and better to level everyone up to get to trak earlier. | |||

Yes, that was a bizzare sociopathic power play.

Green's fate is undetermined.
There's no plans to permanently wipe any characters, the only exception is to free up character names because people seem to think it's fun to hoard them. | ||
