Really, you should all be thanking ZeeeQi (and me, I am the "Protector of the Economy" after all) for ensuring our economy is not completely overrun by dual-boxing-AFK-bots, instead of attacking him. So, that's why I switched sides in this farming debate drastically, when personal attacks on one of the most generous and demonstrably fair players started. I am still, and always will be, 100% against AFK farming and anything that breaks the rules.
You admit that the AFK checks are very meager…having said that…answer this:
Has ZeeeQi ever been jailed for AFK farming Balrons?
Is it possible to keep inter-player arguments off the forums? There are two threads going of pointless bickering. Say what you want about +Nyx but she never would have let this shenanigans continue for so long.
+C opened the topic for debate, let’s keep it to the topic at hand
Well that Seems to be a hilarious miss application of a law that has no relevance.. also, as far as the on forum low brow bashing on each other its kinda entertaining... if you don't like it don't read it...
I certainly played with manipulating the [exex prices of things (suppress plat ingot prices by just mining a few 100k and always adding some at a reasonable price, keep the cost of golden sculls higher by bying all the bones below 30k a 1000 untill they changed the way you convert them to sculls and a few others)
I've certainly talked to other players that wanted a item at auction and chatted about not out bidding each other, guess what there is no rule against it and if two friends want the same item its perfectly acceptable for them to do each other a favor just agree to for go bidding on an item.

It was meant to be a humorous exaggeration and I'm glad you found it funny as well.
What's not an exaggeration is that collusive bidding is a form of fraudulent bid rigging at every IRL auction you'll ever attend. It unfairly deprives the seller of value. Absent a rule to the contrary, I think it reasonable to presume that behavior which would be straight-up fraudulent at an IRL auction remains so at one of ours.
It's generally risky to accuse someone of collusive bidding because it's darn hard to prove. Muolke made an unsolicited confession to such fraud at the game auctions. Are we supposed to ignore it?

Have you ever been to an IRL auction? One person telling another person they won't bid on an item they want happens all the time and it's perfectly legal unless specifically stated in a contract they're forced to sign in order to attend such auction. If a seller is concerned about value they can add a reserve price to an item. Based on recent auction sales data...I don't think anyone was deprived of anything.
But hey...keep making ridiculous posts. It just brings your intentions to light and shows how much all that mask wearing hurt your brain...or maybe you were like this even before the mask.
Quite a few actually. Just because you haven't been caught doesn't make it legit. And I don't see you offering any, shall we say scholarly references, explaining the circumstances under which bid collusion is acceptable.
@Muolke I would like to buy the next dolphin spawner at auction... I know you like them too... if I need to compete you you I won't bid for it but, if you let me have it without running the bid up I'd appreciate the favor.
See legit question that's completely legal and an actual conversation I've had before. Its a game we kill each other sometimes and never eat; RW laws pretty much have no carry over... in game.
Would anyone else care to confess to cheating at the auctions?
If enough people speed it can't possibly be against the law, right? And even if it's -technically- against the law, it surely isn't -wrong- to do 90 in that 25mph zone.

Show us the codex that says we can’t do what Nick just said…until then go find something else with your free time. You’re looking more and more pathetic with each post you make.

holy cow... this is moral relativism at its most base.... CHAZ and CHOP and BLM.... while techinically it may be against the law as written, if we all don't listen to it then it is no longer against the law. LOL. Just because there are marxist DA's that choose not to prosecute, does not mean the law has changed. Different DA and you are in big trouble. So sad that people are no longer able to formulate logical arguments. Just wow.,,,

I’m just happy I live in the Freedom state of Florida with one of the best Governors and Grady Judd as my Sheriff.
