It seemed legit, everyone told me it was legit. Nobody suggested otherwise...That's why I didn't think anything of it. Shouldn't enchanters have asked if Whirl was legit (It wasnt) why aren't enchanters punished for that?

Punishments on this server are always hand picked...some banned for doing a quest, others allowed to MQ... its like...I don't like this guy! BURN! I don't think that's how issues should be resolved at all

When you say "everyone" does that include the other GMs? I'm sorry but if I was in your position and I saw how fast people were leveling...that would make me want to at least discuss it with my team.

Your argument is flawed concerning enchanters whirl til you hurl because it was a known issue. Nobody apparantely even reported about this quest this at all. Again, I don't care how long one has played EQ for. Being able to lvl that fast due to a quest should have gotten people thinking and posting a possible bug.

Anyone who did this quest on live and knew about it would absolutely KNOW that it was being done faster on this server. They should have reported it and in my opinion exploited it.

Give me a break. If you have to ask if something is an exploit, you already know the answer.

It seemed legit??? As a GM you honestly think if someone gets a char to 50 and another to 30+ within 2-3 days im not sure how long exactly,thats legit? Now i have no problems with anyone associated to this quest, nor is this a flame, as i am guilty of trying this quest and it was obviously retardedly easy to level.(i tried it for 3 yellows -=\)Do you realize if this was allowed it would fuck up the natural order of the game, why would anyone want to grind out level 20+ if they could just do this quest? I could see at least 1/2 the server sitting in East Freeport doing this to 50 and everyone having at least 4 level 50s in every class.

Since my post all I have seen is whining and complaining and zero fact to back up any argument. All you guys are saying is what you think I should have done. If that's how it was in classic minus the kiola nut stacking, are you saying you wouldn't want the quest in the server? Well that's your opinion isn't it?

I don't think anyone wants it removed completely, just the exploitable bit. The quest did serve a purpose back then it just wasn't meant to max your level so quickly. If you want to keep doing it without stackable kiola nuts, then go for it, if you think it's worth the extra time it's going to take.

At then end of the day, though, this is Rogeans sandbox and he has the right to decide who plays in it and who does not and to make the rules that make that determination. I don't care anything about corrupt GMs. We had corrupt GMs on the Zek servers on live. We dealt with it. If the devs on this server want to have their family and friends on and give them special favors, that is their right. They pay the bills, they write the code, they make the server available for us to play on for free. Nobody has the right to attack them for not getting their way here. The jerk who is doing the DDOS attacks needs to learn that, too, assuming you and he are not one and the same. Neither he nor you speak for the rest of us. A lot of us would rather see the server go down for good than for spoiled little babies like you to get whatever you want because you threaten them. If you don't like how things are here then play somewhere else or put up your own server. Then you'll see just how much time and money you have to put into it to keep it running. Leave the rest of us out of your personal war against the devs. We had nothing to do with it.

Actually, it's my sandbox. Rogean, as server admin, does a great job at making sure the server is up and running its best. He is also a GM and can decide if you play here or not, with full authority.

Before and/or if he gets any flak because of false information, he had no part in writing the rules or the Tumpy Tonic quest. He is trying to help clean up the mess associated with it, though.

Expect to hear more about the Tumpy Tonics soon and remember that particular bans or punishments will not be publicly discussed. If you have a grievance, take it to the petitions forum.
