Why not handle all the scamming/crying about beeing scamed the classic way: classic PnP stated clearly: "All trades are final". You hit trade and dont get anything in return, then its your fault since you hit trade and the staff can just delete the petition about it.

Because the issue at hand isn't scamming.. it's RMT's

I am all ears for suggestions on how to fix the real problem.

I don't think there's anything you can do to completely stop RMTs from happening besides making everything free and available... or making plat's real money value so low that it's not worth trying to sell for money.. only way I can think to do that is make everything more available...

You could argue that to be able to make things more available to decrease the value of plat so that it's not worth it to sell for real money, would ultimately change the game and it wouldn't be Classic EQ, but since RMT's are the main issue at hand, I'd assume the goal is to get rid of RMT's and if the goal is to stop it completely then are the steps to make plat/items more available in motion as well? Or are the GM's not trying to stop RMT's, just be able to control/target them easier?

I'll do your volunteer staff work for you and go through the logs to track down RMT's if it's coming down to "less work" for the GMs/CSRs. I'll pick up the slack [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I agree, it's not hard to put a rule that says only licensed casinos are allow to run on the p99 server. Licensed Casinos have to be tested by a CSR or GM and have stipulations like must have been active for 2 years etc easy to do... they rather not do it.. BUT I WOULD [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

You want a classic EQ response?

"The ruling/ban is final. Deal with it."
"Someone corpse camping you on a PvP server for 24/7 so your corpse decays with all items because you were dumb enough to insult the said bard? Deal with it."

I really appreciate the 0% chance of ever happening Luclin-era npc casino teaser he gave us.
" In the future we may add gambling NPC's to provide a safe, server friendly way to gamble here on Project 1999, but for the time being there will be no sanctioned gambling on either server."

in all seriousness, i never understood the desire to "gamble" with other players EQ. so i have no way of understanding the level of any disappointment this has for some players, if any.

personally, i liked getting a RNF thread every once in a while from a tool bag that got ripped off and thought anyone was going to help him. it makes me laugh laugh laugh all the night long. i guess its less funny for GMs, so i understand the ban.

Why are people surprised that a form of entertainment being taken away has made people mad? If anything, the shame should go to the dolts that cried about being scammed.
