Accounts were never allowed to be sold in EC tunnel. You are doing it wrong.

Not only did I screencap an account sale, but the seller was advertising it promoting the "IP exemption" it had...account sales go on all the time in EC chat :/

Well I was referring to his comment about it being the only unique thing about classic EQ. If you want a classic tunnel experience you can't be selling accounts, it didn't happen.

Oh fair point. I think people are pinning hopes on a timeline server being released after Velious, maybe a "v2.0 server" would right all the wrongs... although different people want different things :/

Still waiting on a valid support for account trades/sales. So far we have heard that it infringes on the right of others to break the game. We have also heard how it is the only way someone who is bored with the game can still manage to log in. Am I missing anything?

Someone mentions the tunnel and now they can't focus.

Oh sure. Now it's not enough for you to attempt to control how I enjoy the game--you need to dictate my forumquesting, too. Fascist!

You're missing a sincere desire to hear those opposing views. You're also eviedntly lacking the platinum required to enjoy the game the same way I do. I don't hate you for that. <3

Nilbog stated in the past that they don't care about the number of players, he just wants P99 to be an honest recreation of classic EQ.

Account sales are not classic, the sale of accounts was a ban-able offense.

The argument keeps being raised on the side of keeping account sales that it would be taking away their fun, but this server isn't meant to be a "Fun server", this is supposed to be CLASSIC.

Ban fun, imo.

You forgot about the entire server quitting.

You assume I am against account trading.

I was making observations and weighing arguments.

Seriously, I don't care about account trading at this point. I log in. I have fun. When I don't have fun, I log out.

I'm always interested in extending my fun. I'm reading here to determine if changing the rules regarding account trading would do that.
