also it's also annoying when people kill entrance guards

how would the noobs survive if the guards aren't there to save them (like Kelethin!)
This is the moral lesson, racism is annoying.

This was lost because designers thought killing bankers would be un fun.

Now we dont know that its bad to say you've ruined your lands, youll not ruin mine, because it makes banking annoying!

make all merchants EXP with loot tables for this moral tale to be told as intended by the great and powerful Brad.

It's literally every large guild in probably every city. I've seen at least 3 other guilds doing the same thing in Neriak regularly.

I've recently had friends join me here on Green, but several of them have expressed to me how they've considered switching to Blue or quitting P99 all-together because of how obnoxious this has gotten. Every time they go to bank, the bankers are dead. Sometimes, if they're lucky, the farmer will keep track when they're back up and will wait for them to do their transaction first. However, my friends are getting exceedingly exhausted having to wait around just to make a single transaction. One of my friends asked me why this isn't considered griefing, considering it's a comparatively important NPC, and I genuinely had no idea what to tell him. This is in Qeynos, where unless you're evil, you've only that one place to bank and nowhere else for miles and miles.

The fact I've potential friends I could be playing with, people who are entirely new to EverQuest, so close to quitting because people are so hungry for experience makes me extremely angry. What's so hard to simply leave one of the bankers alive? Could some of these powerlevelers please just chill and dial it back from 11 slightly? This seems like it's becoming quite an issue.

It's classic. One of the few benefits of rolling a barb in Halas. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Since when do bankers give exp or loot? They should poof like merchants and absolutely reck ur faction into criminal scum territory.

Banker killers deserve a slow and painful death, imho

I've only run into this once so far (in Qeynos) and while I do disagree with the practice overall I will say that as soon as I zoned in I saw an OOC message informing me that the bankers would respawn in X minutes. I do thank them for that courtesy at least.

But yeah, I thought bankers and merchants gave no xp... If sober me remembers I'll comb logs when I wake up.

I agree, if it’s not illegal to kill them it should be. Ran into felwithe tons of times to the bankers dead.
