While I think people sitting at Tranix attacking air while tabbing furiously is kinda gay, anything is better than some unemployed dude sitting there for two months without leaving.

Tranix with CT mechanic.

When Tranix spawns, every fire giant respawns.

Yea as much as FTE is a headache for CSR it has proven at ragefire that its not something you can "lock down" easily or at least anywhere as easily as you can afk at something for X hrs and then click click click, sit afk for X hrs.

(please don't take this as a challenge you locker-downers, you) :P

This would be un-classic, but a random spawn in an 8 hr window would force people to have to camp it. But FTE would be easiest to implement for staff.

I think there's a few prevailing arguments against how Tranix is currently being held.

Argument 1 seems to be ""Neckbeard has more free time/dedication than I do and that's not fair".

I personally believe that if you have the time and ability to camp a mob for any length of time and are not cheating our violating the rules, all the power to you. There's nothing that states that you can't enjoy camping Tranix or any other similar spawn just because other people want the precious pixels too. The game is all about enjoying it the way you want to play it, not the way other people want you to play it.

Argument 2 is "Neckbeard is such an RMTer". Unless you have actual proof that this us the case, you have no case other than BUT HE'S GOING TO SELL ALL THAT PLAT. Seriously, please try to understand that not everybody who has a lot of plat is also an RMTer. GM's do a damn fine job of policing this already and something this bold would and probably already is the focus of some of their attention.

Argument 3 seems to be "I want those fucking pixels and neckbeard won't share"

Crown is what, like 25% drop rate? So every 32+ hours he's making 27k or so? Sure it's an AFK camp but in that same amount of time, anyone capable of soloing Tranix could probably make about this much if not more. Even SF isle gives 800+ an hour on a busy day. So if crown is what you're after, and not riches, farm those riches and buy a crown and let the guy who never leaves the throne room.... never leave throne room.

Which brings me to another point.... if he's corpsing the crowns, take the fucking camp from him when he goes to corpse the crown. Any bottom dollar rule lawyer can see that's an open and shut case in the EQ courtroom. Wouldn't even get to trial.

I feel the arguments to change the respawn to make all FG's respawn is just stupid, that's not classic at all, and saying that is justification to get rid of the not classic camper is just as bad. You don't make something not classic to circumvent someone playing in a non classic fashion.

Making him FTE would also be a fucking shit show. Do we really need 15 people in Tranix's spawn point with auto fire too? That turns it into an even bigger cluster fuck than it already is, and GM's and Fraps would have to be involved, and we then start deleting loot and making him Class T and twenty six other rules nobody can fucking agree on.

I say if he wants to spend his EQ time doing ONE camp that you can easily take when he goes to corpse the crown, let it be. You, on the other hand, go kill Drusella or Emp, or any of the other dozens of camps that are fun, engaging, allow you to interact with people, meet new friends, play with old friends.

It's simpler than anything else, and eliminates the crying.

The fact that this guy is 2 boxing I guess is irrelevant to you then. The idiot even admitted to me that he was on his monk, while at the very same time his Shaman which has all the crowns (because his monk IS NOT able to solo Tranix) was logged on in EC Tunnel selling a crown.

There is absolutely no logical argument you can give which will convince anyone here with more than 2 brain cells that aren't fighting over the same molecule of oxygen that is more conclusive to the fact that he is in fact selling plat.

Anyone defending this person is either in collusion with him or would have to be the world's greatest fool.

In the end, it is the community's fault for buying this item from him, with some share of the blame laid upon the GMs for enabling this reprehensible behavior.

R,

R,
Thanks for skimming the first sentence and then firing off a post directed at one of the 400 torpor shaman that hold Tranix spawns down for a length of time.

I guess what you're saying is we need to completely change the rules and/or mechanics of this spawn because one guy is 2 boxing?

Why do you even bother posting if all you are going to say is HEY FUCK YOU RETARD HE'S A PLAT SELLER FUCKING MORON I KNOW IT BECAUSE I SAID SO YOU ASS HOLE

Edit: after giving this some thought I have absolutely no idea what point you're trying to make other than you say he's an RMTer and 2boxer, and if that's the case why don't you submit this evidence to the GMs and it will be handled that way?

I talked to a guy in TMO and he was like "oh yeah, everyone here thinks Clark RMTs/boxes; he's been called out in guildchat numerous times".

Korben is probably just a troll alt he logs on to defend himself. I don't see how anyone else can have such a hardon for AFK camping.

The best part about this would be the ragefire farmers suddenly getting trained by Rokyll. +1

I guess I should have expected no less from Raev. Your argument is "Korben is defending ANYBODY who camps Tranix, Drusella, etc, therefore he must be Clark's alt forum defender".

Ban any fucking RMTer / boxer, hands down. If people have ACTUAL proof of boxing / RMT you know they'd be posting that shit all over, if only to keep themselves from being suspect. I can't imagine everybody in TMO sees this one dude boxing in guild chat and says "this won't reflect poorly on us / get yet another ban, suspension, etc, levied against us if this gets out".

Stop slinging unfounded(no proof) accusations against people for boxing just because you disagree with what they're camping. This applies to every fucking time someone camps a mob for a length of time (king, drusella, tranix...)

They'll act all super surprised when he gets caught, I'm sure.
