  • How Not To Ask

    This boggled me, and I thought everyone would get a smile, and perhaps someone will take the lesson to heart.

    (I'm in trader mode in the Bazaar)
    Obvious_newbie is browsing your wares.
    Obvious_newbie bought Tailored Quiver token
    Obvious_newbie tells you 'How do I use this thing?'
    (Explanation follows, and O_n gets his quiver)
    Obvious_newbie tells you, 'Where are the arrows?'
    You tell Obvious_newbie, 'You have to fill it yourself. I just sell the quiver.'
    Obvious_newbie tells you, 'That's such a rip! You owe me arrows!'
    You tell Obvious_newbie, 'I just sell the quiver. You have to fill it with your own arrows.'
    Obvious_newbie tells you, 'Well, I'm telling my guild not to buy your stuff!'
    (I notice he's not anonymous, but has no guild tag)

    Maybe fifteen or twenty minutes pass, and (drumroll please...)

    Obvious_newbie tells you, 'Can you rez me in Crushbone?'

    Ahem.

      Target the offender and type /guildstatus. It'll not only tell you what guild they're in, it'll tell you whether they are member, officer, or leader.

          hehehehe.

          /guildsta Name also works if the person is in the same zone with you. Otherwise I do /who all Name and see if they're anon or not.

            He was probably hitting orcs over the head with his quiver.

              Read this story aloud, and try to say "Obvious Newbie" all those times.

              It turns into "obbious noobie" and "ovvious noovie".

              heh.

                    Silverfish, Thank you for posting that, it made me laugh!

                    My question is, where do these people come from? Seriously. "Welcome to EverQuest, while you are loading, please check your brain in at the door, Thank You"

                      No more Chaucer! Just going to cut my losses and skip the, um, two weeks I was behind.

                      But he is correct. There is much that is preferrable to Chaucer. ^_^

                              Hehe, i met a guy like this JUST after Wu armor came out, and we were only 4 people on Veeshan making it.

                              Guy wanna buy it for 1/4 of the price, and when i tell him no, he threated to OOC about me being a scammer and tell his guild never to buy my stuff and so on.

                              Result, 10 min later, all 4 Wu sellers on Veeshan got him on ignore, 1 of them had already because he tried the same on him.
