I kinda want it to happen just to see the outbursts from naive newbies when their hopes and dreams are utterly crushed by the no lifers.

Right now it's incredibly easy for a new player to break into P99. Gear is cheap, mobs are still loot pinatas, leveling is fast, and there are plenty of places to go and kill stuff. And people are still bitching about places being too crowded and gear being too expensive. Can you imagine how fun RnF will be when literally every decent camp in the game is perma locked down by the top nolifers and people log on for weeks at a time without being able to progress all while watching item prices skyrocket beyond anything they could hope to attain while being a functional human being? How many rusty weapons do you need to sell to save up 25k for an FBSS?
Makes me laugh when a newbie complains about how hard it is to get established on blue, when they are wielding a 1:2 weapon they bought in EC for a couple of stacks of bone chips [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]!

Can't wait for everyone to be running around with leather whips, mino axes and so on*.


*by so on I mean exclusively mage pets.

Sadly Kill stealing was the name of the game back in the day .

Training and feigning to remove camps .

Tbh it was easier to buy the item with plat than to actually get the item via farming it.

Personally I would've made all the items in the game NO TRADE to stop the greedy farmers from ruining the game .
I've mused this idea too. I'd probably made tradeskill stuff (components and resulting combines) and mundane armour / weapons (like raw hide, bronze, rusty, fine steel) tradable.

Magic items should generally just be for those who earnt them. More a status symbol than anything.
