Should shared bank accounts be made available?

[Reapin]

Seems this would solve many issues and also cut down on /petitions and make an unfriendlt atmosphere for scamers and assholes. What do you think?

Classic was flawed. Fixing small things like this would not interfere with the Classic experience.

[SamwiseRed]

so mite as well add maps, soulbinders, Trans locators, and bring back the compass.

[Reapin]

People who vote no are obviously thieves.

No. Those options do effect game play and the classic experience.

[Reapin]

In classic you could train Sargent Slate to the EC tunnel killing evil peeps. Can't do it on this server. That is not Classic EQ. Obviously it was done to stop aholes from griefing people. you should look at the the shared bank in the same light.

[Ektar]

wait you can't do that?

If being scared shitless while trying to drop transfer stuff isn't part of the classic experience, then nothing is.

[Barkingturtle]

I drop-transfered about 200k worth of stuff this morning.

Butthole was pretty tight.

Why make an environment for thieves to succeed? makes no sense

[SamwiseRed]

disable trading imo

[Somekid123]

This is only an issue to people who SoloQuest and dont make friends they can trust to transfer. OP=Loner.

It's fun to have bad guys and enemies. I loved to hate people like Abacab and Raren.

[Reapin]

GM's should support this idea if only to eliminate 50% of the petitions they get.

[Somekid123]

How do you know its 50%, you cannot read petition threads.

[Reapin]

By the amount of scamming done by Xois / Theync alone 50% is a conservative estimate

[SamwiseRed]

how do you get scammed?

[Reapin]

I didn't. I am not an idiot.

[Rhambuk]

no

people need to stop being fucking retarded when it comes to trusting naked lvl 1 human warriors to do transfers for them,

[Reapin]

Well this thread proves keeping the status quo is profitable to some of the servers unsavory residents. Take note of the no votes...

[Karafa]

no.

[Sadre Spinegnawer]

agree. didn't we all have a sekret spot to do self-transfers? drop something on the ground, quickly log on to second character pick it up?

I know I did. never lost anything. but then again, i wasn't on dialup.

wait, none of us are now.

what's the point?

also. if you put in shared bank slots, you ruin a lot of quests that require your char to travel to other cities.

[Hasbinbad]

transfer nightmares are as classic as eq gets.

stfu noob.

[Turp_SmokinPurp]

You could drop Plat on the ground in classic. So at least fix that or share bank plat would not hurt.

[Daldolma]

obvious answer is no

scamming is classic

[Norathorr]

I think it is part of what made classic fun. Getting to know people you can trust to transfer. The only problem here is that free unlimited accounts do not make personal reputation so important. I voted no as playing on live for 11 years makes me enjoy the lack of easy convenience of classic and the need to socialise and get to know people. Shared bank as convenient as it is, is one of those things that oversimplifies the game. It enables you to also shift items across huge distances which in turn makes the world a lot smaller.

Your forum avatar describes your perfectly.

The only reason I could ever justify this is POSSIBLY for money drop transfers since we can not drop coin with the titanium client, and money in the shared bank should go poof if you log out for a period of time.

[fastboy21]

This is alrdy moved to RnF...but my opinion:

no to general shared bank slot. go make some friends or get used to taking the risk of drop-swapping.

i would not mind a work-around for plat transfers as you can not drop-swap money on p99 as you could in classic. maybe having a gem that buys/sells for 1000pp (same weight as 1000pp) that you could then drop-swap?

[khanable]

No

[Waedawen]

Make some friends.


Friend friends. Not acquaintances. The same two? three? people have had my account info for several years and we have not fucked each other over.

[Reapin]

Sorry. I can not make friends in a game. Everyone is an acquaintance online to me. I have enough real friends in life. Having friends online takes time away from people who really matter.

But I never transfer items to my other characters anyway so it is a moot point. And I was not the one scammed. I have been spending a lot of time in EC recently and have seen many people burned. Looking at the no votes here I think I can explain it now.

Thanks

Reapin if you want we can be friend friends.

Not very friendly.

That negative vibe you put out is why you get scammed, imo.

[Barkingturtle]

Karma etc.

Dumbest thread ever. People who get scammed are idiots, end of story. If people didn't learn their lesson 14 years ago they deserve whatever happens to them.

Screw you buddy. This is the RANT and flames board. If you don't want to read rants go elsewhere!

[Sarius]

If you don't like the way banking is on this server, go somewhere else.

[Reapin]

It's not a deal breaker. The current system is flawed. Seems many agree if if people with multiple accounts skew this polls results.

Because you scoff at the idea like a thieving hedge-fund manager scoffs at regulation. Why would someone like you want to have a feature that would lower your scamming profits?

Denied.

[Reapin]

Denied.

Not really. Not a blow out. Not even close.


Think about this.

This is a feature you do not have to use. There should be no reason to be against it unless you stand to lose something having it in place. And there is only one thing that it will effect. Scammers.

If you want to align yourself with those types of people, you are showing your true colors.

Because we couldn't have threads about Xios then.

I can't think of a reason you would be against this besides it going against some illusion of a classic server when we have things that are decidedly not classic like raid variance.

[Halfelfbard]

B me, standing in EC tunnel with all my shiny shit flowing in the breeze. Low lvl dude "Aye can u hold this for me? and give it to blah blah" Me "ya sure ill b right here"

A classis way to transfer stuff is find someone geared up, in a big guild and ask them to hold onto ur shit for like 1min.

[Halfelfbard]

I voted yes, for plat and only plat. Cuz making a low lvl iksar and being broke is bogus.
