I know it is not a rule........ BUT ppl should not shout for lvl 23 + gear, right? It is kind of a rule that has not been writen but understood.
Well it was that way... did I miss the update?... :o that it says it is okies to shout for super rare drops? I WTB or Trade?.... If I am wrong, PLZ let me know :? 8)

East is a bit more lax about shouts than some of the other NS servers (we've always been that way - just part of the server's flavor.)

That being said - I haven't noticed an overabundance of people shouting for high-level gear. WTB/WTS shouts are fine for any gear provided it's not no-drop or the shouts themselves become obnoxious.

However anyone shouting for high-level gear runs the risk of being mocked fiercely :-)

We always encourage people to shout for help getting gear rather than shouting for the gear itself - but it's not a "rule."

Hope that clarified things somewhat.

in my opinioon i think the problem is not on the shout for gear but yes the "pain in [censored]" that is always asking for Gear or Gold or help with something that is to bored to help without a reward like a "thanks dude for the help" or something like that..

i know cuzz i felt that shi....atchim....t...cof cof cof :oops: :oops:

another thing i almost forgoted about selling high gear... do as i do increase the bind on the items like a dimen ammy for 3.5 mil that makes ppl think twice and make them get their own gear.... i think ....anyway i only do this kind of price for annoying ppl or uber noob ppl ......to friends or ppl i know and make parties with me its the normal price....sometimes lol... or ppl can always wait for "my craft armor season" starts lol crafting wastes a lot of gold lol =)

Personally everyone should have to go and get the gear they want themselves (with party members) once they get over 23 at least once.

(Again personally IMHO) Anyone selling NS gear to noobs should be shot or murdered on sight (because all said noob needs to do is sit in HoD or Mith Mines and voila lots of gold).

Most guild members (from ANY guild) will get round to helping out those who ask in a reasonable manner. So teaming up shouldn't be difficult. Its a way of learning the server and working out tactics for those more difficult areas.

I agree with Hex and Grim but just want to make a point. If someone is willing to help you it would be nice to get a reward. However if someone helps with gear they should not always excpect an automatic reward. Some people do it just to help others :)

Personally, I think all Uber gear ought to behave like LP tokens. That way someone would have to be present to acquire it. I also think that no-drop gear should act like LP tokens or at the least allow garbage cans to accept them.
