Is dropping plat (on the ground) classic?

[hacks]

Some people seem to be under the impression that dropping items on the ground to transfer them is safe if you find a secluded area. Just a warning: using certain 3rd party tools - or manually manipulating the client memory yourself - you can see and pick up any item dropped on the ground within your current zone from anywhere within that zone. I can personally verify that this works even on P99.

I do not know if there's anyone actively exploiting this on this server, but it is easily possible and should be taken into account before attempting to transfer high value items in this manner.
