Favorite time from Red99 was when Flowers of Happiness had secret bomb shelter aka "The Hole" all to ourselves for a solid month, if not longer. I don't know if the devs forgot to put it in the patch notes, or released it accidentally, but nobody outside of our core group knew it was open. We safely AFK'D for hours on end. We farmed the server first Imbued Granite Spaulders. Just me, Kripi, Ganja, Chewie, Salem. Maybe one or two others. We never had a 2nd pair of IGS drop, but we farmed the hell out of Loam Encrusted and got tons of free flowing exp with no concern for PvP. Those were the days.
Ganja left Flowers shortly after getting all his Loam Encrusted pieces. We were cool with it, as we knew he wanted to poopsock with Nihilum, and he promised to keep the Hole a secret.
Fast forward a couple days. I was invisible and at the zoneline to VP where Nihilum was gathering a raid force. I am out of range to everyone, so I sit there and watch and listen. Sure enough there's Nizzar and (untagged app) Ganjah. They are talking in /say:
Nizzar: (inspects Ganjah) hey where did you get the Loam Encrusted?
Ganjah: (breathing intensifies as he knows this is his chance to please Lord Nizzar) the Hole. It's open.
And that was that. Within 20 minutes Nihilum had a raid force in the Hole. We met them face first and took heavy losses. Salem went out swinging like the boss that he is.
