Casinos

[Ataxio]

Perhaps... perhaps it's time I cleaned up that rough draft :F

Wow drama central. After wading through this entire thread I must say I am entertained. First, kudos to the ban on all casinos! They are nothing but annoying spammers and add nothing to the game itself.
Being new here and thinking this whole concept is both novel and well thought out I am surprised that there is so much griefing over this simple rule. Really, no one HAS to play here. You all came here by choice through either nostalgia over the "good old days" or a desire to play EQ as it was back at the beginning. If you don't find it fun go play elsewhere.
Just few more off the cuff comments:
To the guy who keeps demanding that the rulings be "more specific". Yes, you can still /random for loot drops. And I believe no you cannot have a guild casino night or day. I would also imagine if you and a friend want to /random a dice game while waiting for a spawn no one will care, ever.
To the guy who was demanding his "basic rights" ...are you a nut? This is a game in case you failed to notice. Oh yes I almost forgot, I am planning on creating a guild that only Dark Elves can join. These are toons not actual people and unless you are having very very serious breaks from reality you can't "discriminate" against a toon.

Just my 2 cents...

Fun fact: Highpass was originally supposed to be a casino and Verant never finished it. Of course the Casino would later be put in on Luclin.

Would be super cool to see the Highpass NPCs run some sort of ticket system for pre-nerf items.

Why do people complain about Item Links? Do you want people to type out the stats on every item? I remember that, it was fucking awful. You'd get like 30 tells asking you what the AC was on various items, and they never bought the damn thing.

this is everquests 15th year, if you don't know what items have what stats or know how to use the wiki then u probably shouldn't be playing here

By far and away the most ignorant thing i have read this week...this is tantamount to saying: "why would i want to know the exact number of hitpoints i have left?? i can see how much of my little green bar is left!"

Thankfully, not everyone has this attitude, which is why we continue to see players from live, and furthermore, brand new players joining up!

The only thing that really bothered me about casinos was the roll spam, because morons do not have the common courtesy to move that shit farther back into the tunnels away from the main trading areas. I didn't even mind having to add a new casino to the ignore list every few days, big deal, as long as the list could grow as large as needed.

IMO if people are dumb enough to hand money over to someone with no reputation or accountability then that's pretty much on them, so have at it.

But as we can see, things on this server are trending towards more restrictions, more regulations, less personal liberties and freedoms, and socialism (loot rationing). Definitely not classic and definitely not based on the original design principles. Sound familiar?

Seriously? Ya'll still talkin' bout casinos?

Guess i should read the forums more often... didn't even know this happened.

I can't believe there is a 31 page thread complaining about the change or any change for that matter. This is a free server. They make the rules. it's a simple concept. If you don't like playing here under their rules for free. Then go elsewhere. I feel bad for the legit Casinos out there . I do. I am sure there were some cool people who ran them. But at the end of the day... We are in their world . With no expense to us. There might be a day where they make a change i don't like. Then it is up to me to decide whether it is a game breaker or not. But i can tell you i won't be complaining about it. i will simply leave. IF this were on Sony Live servers where you actually payed a sub .. i can see this thread existing. But not here.
