It seems a very large majority of the server would like to see account selling / trading put to a halt somehow, and for that I applaud the community!
There are a few posts listing some very compelling agruments as to why this needs to take place for the overall betterment of the server. As a whole and I agree with all of them! Most specifically, the reputation arguments. The fact that it took a considerable amount of time to level meant that your reputation was exceedingly valuble. Messing it up intentionally or being underhanded almost always led to the shunning of said individual, and the community itself behaved better to avoid being shunned themselves. What better way to save our caretakers time than by making it easier to police ourselves?!
To the person who made the argument stating "I've leveled to 60 three times already and shouldn't have to do it again": you sir are rediculous. You don't want to level to 60 a 4th time? Fine. Then DON'T DO IT! Using your massive plat bank as a means to forgo the intended time sink in leveling is certainly not what Verant (or hardly any other players back then) had in mind. Might I suggest getting some sun, or perhaps working on your career. I know this is supposed to be classic EQ but I'm pretty sure that doesn't mean you should move back in to your mother's basement and play 14 hours a day.
