I am sooooo terrified of AG and Aegis Alliance. So much for being nice guilds on the server. All I did was buy something off a public vendor. I cannot believe the self importance and delusion some people have to think that they own the server, just because they are high end raiders. This is pretty much outrageous. I wish I had bought your Larrikan's Mask and your Locket of Escape and every stupid thing on there. Maybe next time use a vendor that isn't in West Commonlands?

Glad you people have such good anger management skills you descend to cocksucker and insults over losing 500p.

At least through vendors. Make people do some fucked up quest to recharge if they want.

xplit871
03-07-2019, 10:12 PM
So i guess my question is once you were asked to give it back and they would refund the plat because it was their items, why not just do it? Its not like you walked up to a random merchant with no one around and the items were there. There was clearly people there and they asked for the items back in exchange for the plat and you refuse and call them dicks?

Sounds like another childish ass-shat to me. Hope you do get smacked with a ban hammer to teach you a lesson in being a decent person. And what gets me. Is you log back in and do it AGAIN.

Then you come on here and try and flame them like they did something wrong? Grow up kids.

OP is a dirtbag , he knew what he was doing full well otherwise he wouldn't have said the obvious "wish I had more plat on my lvl 10 bard"

He's not a new player by this statement and wishes he had more resources to intentionally screw somebody over more so than he did.

His intent is clear in that statement enough. They even asked him to stop in case he didn't understand

I agree hide your recharges better but if people would stop intentionally seek to harm other people's gameplay they wouldn't have too

I also ended up on AG recharges a few weeks ago. There was not any item such as Locket of Escape on it when I looked. I actually used some stuff to recharge, but I though it was the worst spot in-game to actually recharge. That Inn in WC is probably the most used one in game for recharges.

Better change that spot before there's some real drama. Just an advice.

OP is a douche and a half but as others have said it is not against the rules to buy recharge items off a merchant. Surprised OP posted this though - was your reputation really worth a net and WC cap? If you had snagged the Locket of Escape it might be a worthy heist but you even suck at that. You fail at forum quest, Everquest and most likely life in general.

All trades are final, sorry you lost AG.Aye, when you sell an item you no longer have any say over it. Recharging is a risk and to do so in plain sight is a reckless one.

Similar heists have been pulled, and there are plenty of veterans in AG who should know better.

The items bought by op should have been asked back for with a 'we will reimburse you for our mistake, please excuse our negligence with guild property' tact and without aggression.

AG should be thankful they did not lose anything more valuable and use this as a lesson.

WC is fine for recharging fairly disposable items like caps, but completely inappropriate for something like a locket of escape; if another player buys it, it is is theirs fair and square. If you sell something to an antique dealers you can't get mad someone else bought it.


DEVILS ADVOCATE, I believed I preached something similar to the AM heist. Also people who buy items being recharged deserve a ruined rep even if it 'isn't cheating'.

Book not up.

Quality thread, OP.

Who's the Cunt in this scenario? Caeldar, for intentionally buying items AG is trying to recharge, or AG/Aegis, for being so so so stupid enough to use WC to recharge a fucking Locket of Escape? Trick question, all parties are cunts.

You have no clue how poverty Aegis is if you think we have something as fancy as a Locket of Escape.

Lots of ALS have been toxic af for being a so called role playing guild. It's still the same diabetic indigents behind the screen

We all know you have one of the largest hate boners for ALS on the server, but why bring it up in a tangentially related thread like this? You already find enough places to force it in. Also nobody is calling ALS a roleplay guild, yikes.

Once you sell an item to a merchant, you've relenquished all claim to that item until you buy it back and it's in your inventory.

Can't fault people who utilize game mechanics (buying items from merchants) the way they were intended.

Or try:

"Why would she dress that way? That's stupid and she got what was coming to her."

Not surprised in the slightest though. I would expect nothing less from the fine citizens of RnF.

This.

Recharging can be a risky business. If you choose to do it in a populated area, you take it to a whole new level of risk and can’t really complain if someone buys your stuff.

Was it a dick move? Sure. Was it actually wrong? No.

You bought items you knew someone was recharging. Items they likely camped or quested for hours. Why do you think that's okay?

Doesn't P99 have a "Play Nice" policy? Is buying items that someone else is obviously recharging "Playing Nice?" It wasn't like the guy innocently bought the stuff. He knew they were recharging and took advantage of the situation. Regardless of it "being dumb they were recharging in a public spot," that's still not a valid excuse to steal their stuff.

The Play Nice Policy very specifically does not cover recharging (or multi-quests): https://www.project1999.com/forums/showthread.php?t=132299

The reason is simple: A) both MQing and recharging are arguably exploits, but are sort of in a gray area, and B) dealing with recharging/multi-questing issues would be a drag on staff time.

So, both mechanics are kept in the game (on Blue at least, Red doesn't even allow recharging I believe), but they are very explicitly "do at your own risk" activities.

It's a problem with the server and rules more than a problem with the players.

Exploit intentionally left in the game in the name of being 'classic'.

No rules or CSR support regarding it because it's an 'exploit' (even though at this point, it's intentionally there).

Raid scene pretty much requires usage of this mechanic in order to compete.

Players use the mechanic to try to compete, other players take advantage, no CSR support because fuck you, result -> forum drama.

Item recharging is an excellent feature of the game. It's the only real plat sink in the economy. 100s of thousands of plat are taken out of circulation every week by guilds recharging items. It's also cool that your character is individually more powerful by being part of a guild that does recharges.

The game wasn't released with a wiki or quest guide, the NPC dialog is how you figure out what to turn in and if you turned in all the right items. The mechanic obviously exists to notify the player that they haven't completed the turn ins or turned in the wrong items and to give them the opportunity to do so.

It's likely to notify other players that a turn in is in progress and they need to wait to turn in their items. The abundance of No Drop items that are required as part of quests is pretty clear evidence that they intended those pieces to be looted and turned in by the player completing the quest.

Erati
03-08-2019, 02:23 PM
Now I totally get that both of us don’t know the full reason as we are not original devs but...

name one quest that features text from individual turn in that isnt also MQable.

Im almost certain those text lines really started to appear often once Epics/VP key type quests came in w tons of no drop pieces. It was most certainly assumed that people other than the person who was doing the quest would acquire these items and still be able to turn them in to progress a quest for someone else.

Champion_Standing
03-08-2019, 02:30 PM
That text appears on everything from bone chips and deathfist belt turn ins to epic turn ins. You also see the text when other players have completed quests that only have one piece to turn in. So i really doubt the reasoning was to make quests easily MQable.

They likely did make a decision not to patch them out or maybe it was just a limitation of the game at the time and couldn't be done. But I fail to see the point of making any quest items no drop if the intention was to allow players to essentially sell or trade them.

Those quests are MQable. Someone can turn in 3 bone chips and you turn in 1 and get the exp.

And quest items were probably no drop so the hope was at some point the person doing the quest actually did the encounter and loot the item but its silly to think Devs wouldnt understand there would be times a player comes across a no drop quest item for another classes quest. Yes original EQ was hard and unforgiving but it was also carefully planned in how questing works practically. Devs were players as well.

Every quest has the dialog in say when you complete it, single or multiple item turn ins. It has nothing to do with it being MQable. The only NPC dialog that's not in say is when you use a merchant.

An equally plausible reason is to guide individuals who are figuring out how to do the quest for the first time, and to restate quest requirements in an era of 56k and slow computers-- when it wasn't quite as easy to have a guide open on another monitor showing you everything you need to do. When trying to "solve" a quest it notifies you that you've turned in a correct item... but not all the correct items.

Every quest has the dialog in say when you complete it, single or multiple item turn ins. It has nothing to do with it being MQable. The only NPC dialog that's not in say is when you use a merchant.

Merchants use say when you initially click on them. And no, not every quest has text for individual turn ins. Having text from a single turn in of a multi item quest hand-in is certainly not the norm for the vast majority of quests, even MQable ones. There are many MQable quests where the NPCs say nothing at all until the final hand in is complete. So the mechanic was present to the point that Devs really started crafting more and more quests that featured completion text lines after a single turn in and surprise surprise, as most quests are MQable as we moved on from the original classic EQ. Kunark epic and VP quests were first major quests you could multi quest and most “long” quests in the following expansions followed same model.

Its ok, neither of us know the full truth. Ive explained my angle as you have yours.

Ill just agree that we disagree.

My angle was that the game already uses a feature where NPCs send a direct tell to you that others do not see. If the case was as simple as you say, then why not have quest npcs also do this like a merchant does when he tells you how much an item costs. So to me the fact that text is in say means something as that had to be decided by the Devs for a reason. Why make that bit public for anyone standing around and why do not all quests have text for individual turn ins. So you could surmize as I have that theres a method to the madness and the Devs understood that there needed to be a way to signal to people around a quest npc that a turn in was completed to people beyond just the player turning it in.

The answer is no one knows but at least I am pointing out the discrepencies present.

Very cool ty for shedding real light. Its pretty odd how they handled it as its obvious they were aware of the practice and could have prevented it w coding but chose not too. Having guides not assist w failed MQs seems like a sensible policy to have to limit the workload of Guides to more dire things that the GMs preferred be handled.

They recently on live removed the ability to MQ Coldain rings, so they do seem to pick and choose when an individual has to complete an entire quest. Still dont feel its an exploit, unintended sure but an exploit gets fixed not allowed to fester for 20 years in the case of Coldain rings.

I think that once it became a thing, they decided not to take it away, but at the same time not support it. I don't think they ever considered it an exploit, per se, but it was unintended.

Why is everyone angry with Caeldar when Innkeep Redthorn is clearly the one to blame for selling the item?

Folks remember these posts when applying to azure guard. Recharges items in the 2nd most popular zone in the game. Swish is sirken..... LOL.

Looks like a veiled attempt at bashing staff...

I thought bashing staff was a bannable offense...

Are you sure you want to go down this road...?

In all seriousness, 100% chance at least a few of his Main-Necromancer's current guildies have put two and two together with his server name and this legit-but-supertrashy move has permanently colored their opinion of the guy.

I'm one of those people, I think OP is great for what he did, and everyone salty about it can eat a bag of dicks.

Seems time to remove recharging items on blue. Guy was just trying to relive the classic experience by purchasing items a vendor had in stock. Since we're all here for the most classic experience possible, some more than others, it should be wiped from everyone's mind.

Hogging a vendor in a noobie zone is against the Play Nice Policy. You ruined his roleplaying and immersion. AEGIS alliance should be under raid suspension and the items they were recharging should be destroyed.

Item recharging is an excellent feature of the game. It's the only real plat sink in the economy. 100s of thousands of plat are taken out of circulation every week by guilds recharging items. It's also cool that your character is individually more powerful by being part of a guild that does recharges.

Really reckless of AG to do recharges in WC... such a high traffic zone. OP is a dick all the same. It's like knocking a kids ice cream cone out of his hands. Just leave him alone.

This is true...AM goes through ~150k a week in recharges. It’s a great way to drain plat off the server

do you need a speical WC merchant to recharge??? pretty sure all merchants do the same thing lol

don't see the problem either id fucking delete that s hit if someone was talking to me like that.

I applaud OP, the only thing dumber than actual recharges are the dip shits that get ripped off while doing recharges. If only OP would have gotten the Locket of Escape for 11k.

However, this has all been played about before. Much like history P99 is also cicular in nature. Search for something like "TMO rages about Larrikans mask"

A classic problem that original EQ devs really didn't think about aside from minimum costs like peridot's and vendor reagents

Pretty much every modern MMO has this economic problem because the players have the power to create money into the world (kill monsters, sell junk to vendors). This they put in systems to drain off that money. (Horses, armor repairs, etc) however these drains often fail or only effective for a short while with one time large plat drains (like flying mounts in wow expansion)

Constant upkeeps do a far better job at fighting inflation in a video game economy. But then it's a careful balancing act to make it palatable to the players

Trade skills are a huge plat sink. There are vendor purchased weapons and armour that are big plat sinks too. In vanilla these were actually 'reasonable'. The problem being competing looted items may have been slightly too common, which was compounded further by the quality of items available from the temple of sol ro, planes and kunark items.

The market is now flooded with half decent looted items available to players very cheaply, and these looted items vendor reasonably well. This means few people are using store bought or tradeskilled armour to remove plat from the economy, and dropped items which aren't used are vendored, adding plat into the economy.

It seems like there are a scant few of us who don't see any problem with this. Why would do recharging in a heavily trafficked area at all? I can think of a few places (but won't give them away) that make MUCH more sense than a WC vendor. . .

Is using the phrase "the N word" now an acceptable alternative to to actually using that word? It's obvious what he means, he's using the phrase "the N word" to substitute the actual word. So even in RnF racial slurs are now allowed apparently.
