IB selling off all their Loot and Accounts, why?

[Silentone]

Are you guys leaving the server for EQmac?

-And if so why would you wan Plat? hmmm.......

-I mean the only other explanation would be you have bad repuations, you're sellling off your accounts to make new characters so you can walk around w/o hanging your head in shame?

You know, as someone who was demonized by a lot of people in IB for selling off a few "guild items" when I quit, I find it interesting how some of the same people now seem to have no problem with it.

Look at it this way. If P99 can die the way it has this past week. So can P99.

And if jesus could be resurrected to walk the land as a zombie who talks to snakes and some floaty head in the sky... who knows what a Velious release can do.

second p99 should say eqmac

It would be nice if the GMs keep an eye on this in the coming weeks.
Shouldn't be too hard to log all transactions 100k+ and then to look at what those toons did with the money.

You're right - 100% no reason to sell your toon for plat unless you're rerolling another character. Which for some reason odd reason I doubt they are doing...

For example:

"Highest end items for sale. PP only".

What is the purpose of clearing out their guild bank (seems like it is IB's guild bank- he says "Manastone(s)" and "Orb of Tishan(s)" because he doesn't know exactly how many they have) if not to make phat stacks o bills?

(doesn't say his toon but is 100% of his gear)

Each of the 3 above listed sales has the potential to generate 100's of thousands if not millions of plat. It can't be that hard for the admins to track transactions of this level and make sure the plat is not being sold for real money.

All of my items are my own/bought. The guild bank items I have are as follows:

RBB
Gauntlets of Fiery Might
Blood Ember Legs
Blood Ember BP
Bladestopper
Puppet Strings
Shield of Rainbow Hues
Staff of Forbidden Rights

Just, since you're keeping such tight tabs on me.

[Diggles]

that's after you sold, right?

Kins, clearly I have no problem with people selling items they earned while they were raiding so I'm not trying to put you on blast here, but you're also selling a Dragon Hero Bracer, which I know there are not a lot of on the market (probably just mine). Again, just think it is funny that I was turned into some greedy bad guy for selling off my items in light of what is going on now.
