I never said they didn't exist in EQ Classic.

It is obvious that all 4 were not intended by EQclassic developers.

Pling - They made it so if any party member was too high, you got no XP. Obviously PLing techniques are an exploit of that concept.

MQing - They made the items no drop in an attempt to prevent this. MQing is the exploit around this,

Recharging items - Obviously a bug.

Twinking - They didnt create a way to share between characters. You had to drop it or trust someone.

What I was saying is that classic EQ obviosuly did not intend any of these to exist. And I believe they were wise in all 4 cases. The fact that people depend on them now isnt true to EQ classic goals.

Now, if P1999 GMs disagree - long live P1999, I was just noting ways I think the player base, and the Gms could be more true to EQ classic INTENT - not the obvious exploits/bugs. Just because a bug existed - you want it etched in stone? Want them to not fix bugs from classic either?
