More like this. Allow any/all forms of gambling, but only while underway on boats. That way you could pacify the whiners comparing the lack of EC casino's to historical civil rights struggles, and encourage more people to ride boats!

Only once the boats reach OOT or TD though. That's international waters right there.

I talked to people at the dock / on my way to OOT recently

Being unable to enjoy the little things in Everquest is called being BAD AT EVERQUEST

I like the boats... though I wouldn't complain if there were two of them running through OoT in such a way that the maximum wait was 15 minutes instead of 30.

If MMORPG players were around when God said, "Let there be light" they'd have called the light gay, and plunged the universe back into darkness by squatting their nutsacks over it.

I think it's fun to take the boats. It reminds me of being a kid who just got Everquest and would trade people languages while I rode between the continents to go to new zones. I was so excited to see what new things I would find and new adventures I would get into as I leveled up and explored new places. It was magic.

Ya know, most of the arguments against are valid. This is supposed to be a classic era EQ, not insta-port POP/POK throw the game away era.

However, I've noticed no one seems to know that the FV boat sweeps you off the barges as they take you in to BB... if they're ever on. After waiting 30m for the boat in FV, I gave up and ran all the way to OT outpost to get a port to BB. Sure, I got a port... but I wouldn't have had to had the boat a) worked b) worked as intended.

The rest of the boats are awesome. Get a port to Toxx and run all the way back to EC. Classic.

A couple years ago my friends and I met Bobbarker on his yacht, it was made very clear that we refer to it as a yacht, and he served us pancakes as we sailed through OOT.
