TBH, I’m a part of this blanket ban as well - it must be the same guy. He was a guildie who was quitting for Agnarr a while back - he logged on his monk and tried to give me everything he had equipped. He had a necro parked in the EC Tunnel - he was on discord saying “hey I’m taking off for Agnarr, who wants my X, Y and Z.” Being in the Hydra chat, I was like - hell yeah, that torpor grind is real, I’m gonna take a few items, why not?! The story I got was: he logged back in and wanted his items back, and it looks like you received them on such-and-such a date, can you explain this? I told the story and said dude can have whatever he wants, it wasn’t mine originally! Hell, he can have my plat too if it means I can play my dudes again sooner (Still banned tho while they investigate).

I’ve also met people on P99 who do things like login to Rivervale on their 60 necro and just distribute stacks of velious gems to lowbies and guard killers (it happened to a few of us a few months ago, read far enough back on the p99 reddit and you’ll see my post about it, my buddy got stacks of flawless gems for porting and buffing the guy for 2 hours)). I also recall winning something like 10k during an EC creative writing competition. P99 has been out for ages, and there is a large player base of people who are sitting on massive amounts of “stuff.” Not everyone is a pixel hoarder, and people do nice things. I must have given away 20 pair of GEBs during my grind to 60 in Sol B to newbies, guildies, whoever wanted a pair of gold shoes. Who has the time to sit in EC and /auc 20x items that are hardly worth 1k? I know I don’t want to play that way in my free time.

I can see that since it’s a free server, there are strict rules surrounding what can be conducted. As they are consented to use licensed product, keeping an eye on the RMT scene is paramount in the quest to keep it f2p and ffa. If they get busted making money on borrowed pixels, that’s RL lawyerquest.

Edited out Poke’s quote @ his request

Oh absolutely - now just imagine if someone just dumped tons of items to smokescreen the one buyer. how dumb the RMT buyer felt when s/he paid for an item and the seller just gave away the equivalent for free to the mouth breathers that Tunnelquest all day [You must be logged in to view images.

Just curious - as p99 isn’t listed on playerauctions.com (the only EQ RMT site I know of), where do RMT transactions take place? Cause these people would be pretty dumb to just arrange them via /t...

Probably not smart to talk about that. Please don't talk about that here.

Yeah that makes sense, I guess my gullibility might lead to someone else’s perversion.

Wasn't there a 43 druid account on <site name withheld> recently with the alts you mention?

So the truth has been set free. Sigh. You try to give people the benefit of the doubt, and you get burnt every time. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
