Yeah actually I do, just to be sure that it doesn't wear on me at a bad time. I HP in Sandy, so many times I'm also warping from ToAU/WotG zone and have to overwrite Sanction/Sigil on the way out. It's not a huge deal, just a minor inconvenience.

Most of the stuff in this update is nice, but seriously, what a slap in the face to the legit player. I could make 20k if I emptied 25 inventory slots, now ... well fuck me if I know how to get a quick chunk of change when I'm really low on cash. I may just be in debt for the next twenty years now. :/

Yeah that actually makes it a bit of a pain in the rear if you're in Sandy.

Actually...
Quote:
With these macros, it is possible to target any party or alliance member, including those not currently on screen. When used, a target icon will appear in the window displaying that party member's status. The icon will not appear when the macro is used to target characters on screen.
I hope that's poor translation. (Unfortunately I can't make sense of the French this time.) If that's true, what a pain in the ass. With <st> or <stnpc> and up/down, you get a target arrow both on the list and over the person's head. If this one works so that you get it on the list or over the person's head, it sucks and is stupid and smells.

I believe they mean the status indicator will not appear if the targeted player is on the screen.

We don't know how much the price on bird blood is dropping do we? I don't understand why they're doing that- that a big source of my income right now- and for a lot of players.

Re: The December Version Update Cometh! (12/09/2008)

Because anytime SE tries to nerf the RMT, they nerf the rest of us too. They have no concept of how legitimate players work to make gil.

The STF was doing a good job of getting rid of the RMT farmers, I don't know why they had to slap us with this. The Coast has been downright empty the last few months because the STF was doing its job. This newest change which screws over the legit players as well as the RMT is BULLSHIT, and I'm quite angry about it.

Almost the entire reason I was leveling THF on my mule was so that I could 2box and farm Blood when I wasn't doing anything major on Calli, since I sorely hurt for income sources and usually prefer sure money over low chances at big money. There goes that.

Where did they ever promise that would happen?

At most all they've ever done is mention it as a future possibility.

Re: The December Version Update Cometh! (12/09/2008)

Fuck you SE.

No really, fuck you. I was happy about this update until I saw that Bugard Skin change. Rather than ban the bots/RMT who have been reported a bazillion times for farming 24/7 in Miseraux Coast, you simply fuck everyone over.

I want my gil back and I want it nao. - _ - guess I'm stictly farming gigas there now (after I use my Codex of course, whenever that will be)

It was never mentioned by anyone ever?

Seriously, where did you get that from?

Also, most of this update is pretty fail. No Mazes, no Northlands or Campaign bodies (yet), and most of the non-relic gear is pretty meh. The only real good coming from this seems to focused on Dnc and Schs.
