1. Hybrid hate / shared xp penalty fear (players w/ penalties effectively consume xp as if they were 2 or so levels higher. That's it).
2. NBG fanaticism and other exploitations of sound logic applied to false premises.
3. EQcommerce hate - if you don't like a price, don't accept it. There is no reason to b offended.
4. Legitimization of exploits due to classic nature.

Agree with all these, but #3 specifically...

If you don't want to haggle or your not flexible on your prices, just auction that... "10k firm" is simple enough. Then you can complain about those that ignore that... [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

The expectation that people shouldn't haggle either way is crazy to me. Your not the only one with the item. /shrug

I think there is a point that's being missed. It's not about what you can do OUT of the game. The server admins and players can't stop you from doing every thing in RL that may give you an advantage in play. They can try to stop boxing, RMTing, scripting, and or other exploits that are considered unfair or give you an advantage (even small ones!). Realistically they can't stop every thing though. Nor is it worth attempting to do so. Reward vs gain. What they can do is take a stance by choosing not to have the option provided by the game.

If you want to use "cheat*" websites with maps and quest walk thrus.... there isn't much Devs or players can do to stop you. They certainly don't need to add it to the game, which would clearly suggest they "condone" it.

So if maps in game doesn't make a diff for you... then stop "cheating*" and don't use them out of game, unless you drew them yourself!

*The term "cheat" or "cheating" is used in reference to websites and publications in the time frame of p99 using this term to describe themselves, by providing detailed walkthrough information and guides including maps for many multiple games. It's NOT a reference to using scripting or violation of EULA agreements.
