I don't want to experience "endgame". I want to take five or six months off, come back and trade my account for something new. Then I just dick around, seeing what it's like to be a druid or a rogue with his epic. I really appreciate that the way the rules currently stand I can do that instead of grinding a character to 30 and forgetting about P99 again for a year only to return and do the exact same thing, again. It is about my fun. Sorry if my fun hurt your fun but if it's really eating at you it's time to take five or six months off, yourself.

imo, ofc

Always love barkingturtle and the gore sig...

I've been here since jan 2010, after leveling 4 chars forgive me if I dont feel like sitting around lfg for hours to get into a pug that MIGHT last long enuogh to get some experience.

The only issue I have is if the Gm's start defining what people can and cant do with their time invested and money gained why even bother...

for the people to p99 im sure it looks horrible etc etc, but for people ( like me) that have been here for years its nothing...

Don't like account sales, you are playing the wrong MMO.

GMs already define what you can do with the time invested and plat earned.

Sorry but it looks like you are in the minority here, but I guess most of the people who have voted here are playing the wrong MMO. The people who like to level up characters and enjoy meeting people in those horrid PUGs definitely don't belong in EQ.

If we don't want people playing with characters they haven't "earned" we should ban all ec trades I mean if you didnt physiclly loot the item your just circumventing game mechanics because your lazy. I bought a BCG the other day, should it be removed because I didnt earn it by raiding draco.

If I put in the time to make enough money to buy an account versus putting in the time to level it up myself, there is no difference to me i sat here grinding away for cash or for exp,

if you hate it so much dont partake problem solved, keep blaming the economy on acount trades, im sure fungi went from 75k-85k because that one guy sold his wiz for 2mil plat....

AND! Wheres the poll to ban bard ae swarm kiting? that literally ruins an entire zones "fun"

Nope it wasnt , but you always had a huge server population. This keeps people interested and playing more often.

Im not sure about other servers but it was widely known people bought and sold accounts on Tallon Zek. It was widely known that people 2 boxed, and even that one guy Linse who bought and sold accounts, sold plat, made a fortune off it. He had like 6 comps going and farmed EVERYYYTHINNNNGGGGGGGGGfuk.

I think to just satisfy those who want to see account selling banned, it should be. But, in EC tunnel and on the forums. That's the p99 staff's lane. It would satisfy both parties to an extent. The traders would still have other means to buy/sell/trade accounts, sure. Much like it was on live (ebay anyone?)

You're not listening to anything said, and instead just repeat yourself. I wouldn't even call this an argument.

Regardless, Nilbog has come out and said that account sales will become against the rules at some point in the future. I'm happily awaiting that day [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

How would this in any way be enforced it will just go underground and still happen. Good idea.
