I'm sure if they were a douche on one char, they'll be a douche on the twink too...

Besides, I'm pretty sure selling characters isn't "classic".

Agree with this.

Level 50 is overrated and, frankly, boring. If these people want to miss out on the fun part of the game it's their own issue. Let them pay for it too, while they are at it.

Well you would be wrong then.

I remember when i was 14, logging onto ebay and typing in everquest and people sold lvl 30's+ all day. 50's well equipped we usually in the 300+ range.

I never bought one because well, i was 14 and i dont have 300 dollars.

Kinda glad i didnt.

Selling chars is VERY classic. Is is the right thing for this server or would i like to see it? No.

People buying and selling characters for plat doesn't effect me or my game in any way. I really don't care. Let people do what they want.

I really hate the idea that name changes are being done so easily. I had mentioned this before. In classic, a name change would always get rejected unless it violated the naming policies. If the player was level 20+, a name change request was even harder to get through. The name would have to be very offensive etc. The reason for this was to prevent asshole players from slipping off a bad reputation (kill stealing, training, ninja looting, just being an ass) via a name change. If someone is going to buy a character, they should be stuck with the name and name changes in general should not happen unless it is highly warranted due to policy violations. The only other name changes which were allowed were surname changes due to a wedding between two characters or a change to add the apostrophe into Dark Elf names.

I think the devs need to take a good hard look at the EC forum. Is this seriously your vision for the servers future?

So basically..

"I was told something and I'm believing it and are now telling the devs that they need to do something"
