The GMS can be pretty spicy if you directly threaten them or the project.
I got suspened a week from forums one time for implying that Llandris might've woken up on the wrong side of his mother's basement. Figured the comment would've been taken in jest. It obviously was not.

This seems appropriate to me. You live in someone else's house, you should be polite. And to magnetaress's comment, c'mon. How can we 'threaten' the project?

Super respectful choice guys!

Let's just delete half of someone's gear and banked items they camped that were in game because we decided that would be more fair and respectful than letting honest hard working newbs have their cake and eat it to when we left nonclassic pixels in the game from the get go!

And the cherry on top? Lets drop Hate at the same time! Because our excuse for stripping you is integrity to stayin classic, by stealing back your nonclassic pixels on the day we add them to the game!

Seriously? It isn't like I spent any less time camping those items. They were in the game and now instead of being any closer to lambent I am half naked. I wish the GM's had any idea how my stomach felt when I hit character login after coming home from my essential work to excitedly log in and go try to camp a torch for my mage on my bard, only to find out I am half naked and my bank is half empty, but Ivy etched gear is already selling like hotcakes in EC.

Thank you for making a ridiculous decision that actively hosed players and did nothing to benefit the server. The efforts of p99 staff to continually cater to the neckbeards, poopsockers, and zerg guilds while shafting John Q. Newb never ceases to amaze me after countless years of p99 blue, red, and now green.

Ya'll truly outdid yourselves this time though guys. Absolutely brilliant move. Ya got me good! Bravo! I should have seen this one coming!
^^^^

In case you wandered why I changed from a p99 cheerleader to eyeballing the horror that is TLP live servers, this is it. The clowns talking trash just reinforce everything you posted

OP should have posted the availability of these items at the incorrect timeline in the Bugs section and followed up until they were removed.

Why would I assume random no drop armor that fit every single plate class in the game was ONLY added with lambent armor quests? I have been wearing all of it as armor for 10 levels... gear dropped while leveling, which I looted and wore as upgrades. I am now half naked.

Their only reason to remove it would be if it was non-classic, meaning they knew and wouldn't need anything posted if this was their decision.

But yeah... nice point you've made against the GM's decision there. Glad you drew the same conclusion I did.


I just assumed their end use was added with temple of ro, rather than their inclusion in the game itself. There are TONS of useless items in game which later had uses added. Not everything was 100% patched in at a later date.

Relax dude complaining here won’t help your cause. Just keep playing the game, make friends, and the empty slots will be filled. This is the way.

No, GM's removing players gear is not the way. Shit aint classic or kosher brother.

1) I am relaxed, playing the game right now, with my friends, and my bard is as effective naked as geared

2) The forum exists for me to express myself openly as I have done, and I do not need you or anyone else to approve my ability to do so. You are not a moderator. Sit down and stop trying to censor me.

3) I am equal parts annoyed and amused by the usual poor judgement of the staff with such meaningless shit that does nothing but punish innocent players while they pander to dirty whistles, after years of watching p99 blue and red shit shows.

I don't care about the pixels beyond seeing my ugly half elf pornstache instead of my sweet black helm I have to go fetch now. I dont even want lambent. I want my fucking fashionquest back on fleek you scrubs. Gear doesn't matter, but looks are everything!

And now if I have to get in line with neckbeards and poopsocks for another set of icy greaves for blue plate pants I may as well go get lambent finished smfh. It took forever to go collect that stylish swag and I logged in to a half naked ugly ass half elf instead of superman with batmans helmet. What part of that do you nerds not get?

This isn't about some crappy little +'s to meaningless numbers. They fucked up my look dude. I just perfected that with my militia tunic too T.T I even discovered a coding glitch they fixed with on of guard valon's level variance spawns that made me redo hand in with him 3x. That's 24 derv rings, but whose counting? And now I got a red chain tunic pre-sarnak emblazoned tabard, with no blue pants, no silver plate arms, and no stylish black helm to complete the look!

And I just wanna know who deserves a /thank & /gesture. Is that too much to ask, to know whose decision this was? Of all the crap they have to concern themselves with... I just want to know who made this a priority. If it was important enough to do, someone should be proud enough to take credit. They work for free after all... deleting my swag was someone's passion apparently.
