tradeing accounts/characters is the cancer that is killing P99. it devalues plat IMO(no1 traded accounts/chars for pp on live) and it encourges dual boxing(hows your wife, brother, hamster doing)
just a trends forecast and a free bump. | ||

Daltheb offers pretty good rates, and actually having been in a zone with him as he levels a client, I can say he follows the rules. Nobody is going to like it if the FFA mobs they like to claim as a camp are taken but that's no reason to stink up the forums. He's also not really very rude at all. Seriously, when you initiate a conversation by insulting somebody's guild after they take a mob you haven't even actively killed in at least the last 20 minutes and have no right to, what do you expect from him?
You get a lot more than what you should expect, at least. For me, this just seems like a good deal. I can't PL myself, don't really feel like paying a ton of PP per hour to be PL'd, and I need a higher lvl char for my friend who quit in the 30 range (Sold his old toon recently for plat to buy a new one since he doesn't want me to PL him either) Quote:
"no1" means "no1". "sum1" did it. You're incorrect. | |||

I think selling accounts for plat should not be allowed as it was never done during classic live Note: this was before sony/verant banned the selling of accounts/items on ebay | |||

Like I said its extremely naive to believe it didn't happen in classic. However I will say that I don't agree that it should be a publicly advertised practice as it does have a large effect on the economy. I think a part of the reason it wasn't as huge of a deal back in the day was because it was more of a behind the scenes kind of thing, wasn't public knowledge to your average gaming joe. However it's not my place to put a ruling one way or another on the server. Just calling it how I see it. ---- On a side note, it seems a bit hypocritical of people to be slamming this thread/OP, and completely ignoring/allowing bobs toon sales. It is what it is, but why get on one person's case over what is indirectly the same thing in accepting plat or in game goods for a character? Sure its not exactly the same, but when push comes to shove its a similar concept. | |||

QFT On a side note, we are here on this server because we played EQ back in the day. Some of enjoyed being lost in Gfay for hours...some of us loved running around Guk lvling up in our mid lvls, and some of enjoyed the end game of camping/raiding. I don't know about you folks but personally I have a lot less time now to play than I did back when I was younger playing EQ. While that may sound ironic coming from Bob I am AFK most the time my toon is logged in or at least semi afk working on other things at another computer. So if someone wants to skip some of the dirty work of grinding through the lower lvls or any lvls and purchase a toon with in game currency why does it really matter to anyone? The only person this might somehow effect is a person who groups with the buyer before he figures out what he is doing with the class if its new to him. This is not the end of the world, you are still safe in your little classic bubble cause they were plenty of retards back then too who didn't know their class! Obviously I am semi biased on this topic as I make decent scratch helping people sell their accounts but really it comes down to its their time/money and what they do with it really doesn't hinder your gaming experience.

Dalthleb is an idiot, how anyone can think this is good for the game is beyond me.

He KNOWS it's not good for the game. It is, however, good for personal gain and that's why he's doing it. Have fun when playing on p99 when common drops from Lguk are selling for 10k due to massive amounts of inflation. | |||
