people will just rotate chars, PL them in background if they need to. Random award to top 6-12 is the same problem, everybody has to wait and then #1 is mad that #12 gets it first. Imagine the forum rage. Could make these items LORE NODROP, but that is not even slightly classic.

As janky as it sounds, I actually agree with awarding it randomly to the first 6 in line

Sometimes we need to just let bad things happen. In order for the community to grow and mature. Kill stealing should be legal. I guess. Like 99% of the time.

1- list records your MAC address. This is already shared info when you connect to your IP.

2. Add AHK detection. Not sure why people think ahk stuff happens in fps full loot games and not here but it does and did.

Edit - And for the uninitiated, takes about 15 mins to script AHK to click on a random Box or fill out a field in a window

Finally people like my idea of first 6 random ;D

after half a year

maybe just afk check on the first 3. You can list and not even be online or there. get a notification when you are number 4. When you are 1 - 3 you need to be at camp and do afk checks.

The pace at which this world, game, thread crumbles and dies seems to be accelerating.

I am going to be upfront here. List is bad. It's bad for the players. It's bad for the community.

At some point you just need to log off or go do something else. /list encourages and enables the opposite.

Killl stealing is a a better solution. This way terrible niave addicts cannot hide behind /lists. Just let them show their true colors and let the server community sort em all out.

Try red.

I actually did /list for the guise, and it wasn't a bad experience at all. I made some server friends and connected with old friends from blue I hadn't seen in a while. now granted I did /list when I was stuck at home and it had the benefit of my wife not murdering me because I wasn't bothering her for a day and a half. Overall I actually found it to be a great solution. Even the manastone with guilds sharing a camp toon, It really supports the community theme Everquest has. There are a ton of items and content that cannot be obtained solo in EQ, its the nature of the game. Can't sock for 3 days for a manastone? join a guild that has a shared character to camp it. To me it's no different than raid gear except you aren't going to be screwed by RNG and never get that class breastplate.

Edit-Edit-I do support the whole 1 drop per toon idea though, socking a bunch of stones away for the future really is not good for the overall server economy

@haldour - you are obviously a noob here, so I'd like to give you a friendly warning about being reasonable on the forums. This is the Internet, man. We all need to do our part to take extreme hysterical positions on as many things as possible...otherwise the world might start to return to a non-hysterical outlook and THERE WOULD BE NOTHING TO TALK ABOUT EXCEPT REGULAR STUFF. And my god, man, the media would have nothing to report! Do you want restless herds of desperate media schnooks wandering around on the streets and pestering people? Of course not.
