This is odd as I had a gm reimburse me items that I had lost by accidently dropping them. Maybe I'm not understanding what you're saying.

A guide (Eunomia) can't see drop transfers - they require manual querying of the project1999 item database.

A GM can (but this is on a 6 month wait period for anything).

Different levels of access for different levels of staff. As a Guide, Eunomia doesn't have access to that information. Each type of staff has different permissions. This is a waste of her talents but that's not the point.

I don't buy the "still learning" excuse.

It seems strange that you'd say this, and then launch into a multi-paragraph post describing exactly how terrible he is at playing. At this point I'm not trying to make excuses for the guy, I'm just stating something which is very obvious. I'm sure that I've grouped with him as many times as you have, and I don't have any difficulty at all saying that he still has much to learn. That's not a statement about the content of his character, but about how casual of a player he is. And yes, I've grouped with people higher level than him and even some level 60s that were far, far worse. I didn't think they were shitty people, I just thought they were shitty at the game.

The Enchanter is not his character. It belongs to his friend.

This is the first time I've heard of the enchanter, and he's never raided or grouped with any Azure Guard with this character to my knowledge. This doesn't seem relevant in any case - sharing accounts is perfectly legal and lots of people utilize their friends' high level characters to buff and rez their groups. To reiterate, I'm not making excuses for the guy here, I'm just trying to be objective and look at the situation without any running leaps to hasty conclusions.

If the dude is innocent, why not post up his side of the story, or at least make some sort of comment about it?

We've already done that. This is me commenting. I think it could go either way, but I'm someone who has a mostly favorable image of Shrek and who sees him as a very casual player who probably screwed up somehow, and probably couldn't have pulled off an elaborate drop-transfer stunt even if he wanted to. You described yourself, quite eloquently, how terrible he is at the game - what makes you think him pulling off an incredibly sneaky drop-transfer is more likely than him just accidentally dropping the bag and letting it rot?

Also, I remember Sirken mentioning that it is possible for GMs to see if items rotted on the ground if they know what they're looking for.

Like, all I'm saying is Shrek would have to be god damned David Copperfield to pull this shit off, and he isn't god damned David Copperfield.

it sucks you're more concerned with your personal honor or whatever the hell than a guy in your guild stealing 70k+ in items, paul

keep spinning

[paulgiamatti]

What about anything I've written here demonstrates a concern with personal honor? It's always been about a guy who allegedly stole items, and that's what it still is about. If you're having trouble following along, that's your problem and not mine.

[Pokesan]

Wow, dude. That's insanely petty. What on earth do his group members have to do with this? Like, somehow I'm now guilty of screwing you over because someone in my guild decided to steal some stuff from you, and he just happened to be in my group when he hammered out and went linkdead.

Take it up with Azure Guard officers, or submit a petition in the petition forum. Don't condemn the whole guild or whoever happened to be grouped with him, which are completely arbitrary and irrelevant factors, you idiot.

A post in which you are more interested in shrieking about your honor being besmirched than righting a wrong committed by your guildmate.

Did you read the line prior to the one you quoted? It gave the reason why I wrote the paragraph I did.

Still learning? Dudes in his 50's and has a 60 epic enchanter. I don't buy the "still learning" excuse.

At that particular instance, the guy was decked out in probably 20k worth of gear in his mid 20's and logged on a 60 enchanter, which he'd told the group was his prior to my arrival. He was "still learning" despite being heavily twinked early on (not too uncommon, I'll admit), but apparently "still learning" into his 50's? I'm just not buying it.

Once again, if you're him, why not stop by and set the record straight?

[PDX0621]

Since I can't edit for some reason, I'll add as an addendum to my post above, the guy was still pulling the same crap I talked about in his 20's, 40's, and 50's, all of which I witnessed first hand with different alts. I also heard 2nd hand he pulled the same stuff in groups I was not a part of, as mentioned earlier.

Pay no heed to people who use Luclin models ^^that guy ^^
