Is it legal to repeatedly kill a quest mob just to prevent others from getting?

Why do you get to make the assertion that MQs aren't part of "the spirit of the game" ???

Because it doesn't make much sense in the LORE of the game (look up the definition of the word if you aren't familiar with it, my post has nothing to do with items that say "lore" in their description) for Player A to do a huge epic quest and then at the last moment hand everything to Player B to turn in for the reward.

"Thank you Lord Slowboy the Hobbit for defeating the dastardly dragons of the swamps of anoos, but since you gave the dragon heads to your buddy here who didn't do shit I guess I will just give HIM the reward!"

MQs are part of the game in classic EQ. I know this because this is an emulator whose only stated mission is to recreate classic EQ...so while you can argue that they shouldn't have been part of classic EQ to begin with, you can't just poof them away by saying they go against the spirit of the game.

I'm fully aware MQ's were a part of the game on live. It was probably an oversight by the early devs. When I say "I personally wish MQs weren't a thing" that is me referring to live as well as the emulated version here. Hopefully this helps!

I could have sworn there was an interview where someone like Aradune flat out said as much ... but I'm too lazy to find it.
