Wow.. talk about the tables turning.

I could have sworn we were just talking last week about Aa doing that same kinda thing. The only real difference is that Aa actually knows what he's talking about... and will threaten physical harm if pushed far enough.

I wasn't going to respond but since Ezekiel wants to keep it going...

1) I was part of the Immortals who decided how to change hunt so it couldn't be abused, at the time I was not nearly the level I am now.

2) Some areas have those types of situations(mobs fighting mobs) purposely built into them. A perfect example is my own area where you can have Leng fight the Hunting horror or Seda's area with Moukan-so obviously I wouldn't be bitching and complaing about this.

3) If anyone's idea of a trick is to break a part of the game for everyone when they had a perfectly legitimate request they could of handed in for a new AND needed command before this happened, then they are an utter dumbass. This entire situation could of easily been avoided by telling me what was occuring and requesting a refusal of parcel command. Very nice "trick" btw, if I may borrow my favorite line from the Guiness commercials... "BRILLIANT".

As I said in my third post in this thread, yes we will work on a fix, but until then nobody better screw with the system.

As it stands now, I have ship working again. I've also removed the ability to ship food and a few other silly items. I am going to have the postmaster start sending items that have been there too long to the unclaimed bin here anyone can claim them. Please keep in mind that when this occurs you might better check the status of all your mail before others can claim it. I'm also quite sure there will be bugs in this process, so use ship at your own risk:-)

As for Shadis, simply ignore him like 99.9% of us do, he hardly even knows whats going on. Its not my code so obviously I wasn't bitching about having to fix my own code. And regardless of whose code it was, I still believe that this entire situation was avoidable if a couple people had made better decisions. I do agree with Medios that Shadis does nothing except try to instigate here, it probably is time to ban him and atleast make em work for his posts. But many of us love his posts-they are simply extremely entertaining to those of us who actually know what it is going on.

I am sorry for getting pissed off and there is no excuse for it. I simply hate having to rush to do work that I feel is totally avoidable. As well, when I have to bust my ass to get the game working right, it takes away from being able to work on stuff I enjoy.

I would of been quite delighted to have a bug fix coded before it was abused which would of prevented the entire playerbase from being affected. Its simply too bad we never had the chance...

Enjoy,
Splork

I really haven't paid much attention to what's going on, so I might be off on this, but I was assuming that the goal was to use up a pthief's 9 shipping slots so they couldn't ship items to themself. I realize there should be a refuse option that would keep this from working, but since it does work, I don't see it at all as trying to abuse anything, I just see it as trying to outplay the pthief, and there would be no reason to assume it's going to break the mud. If the goal was to disable all shipping so it couldn't be used, well then yeah, I have an issue with people who would do that.

Incidentally, I used the "shipping silly items" to transfer coins amongst my characters. Hopefully not all things that are cheap to ship have been disabled, and I would assume that won't be a problem.

Medios

I do have a very negetive way of expressing myself always have. i dunno if come from working in retail when i was younger (before sloth) or working in IT for the last 12 years

If your telling me i can not post here unless i have a bubbly bringht attitude .... go F yourself with a dead mackrel

I have never liked Rick's attitude as an immort here, personaly think it is just wrong ..as much as i have disagreed with Jake and how he has done things, the way he relates to and posts as has always been consistent and professional (do not even start by comparing to my style of posting .i am not and never will be an immort on sloth) and i have as much right to express my opinion here as you do

and i do still play, not nearly as much as i used to. i enjoy playing low level characters more then high one so i have multiple sub 20 lvl characters

BTW i still hate stab lag ..i think it sucks and it stil has ruined thieves, i have simply restrained myself from bitching more about it because of people like you who constantly use it as an example

poke fun at someone who doesn't know me? Rick knows who i am about as much as anyone .. as much as you know me and you seem justified in "picking" on me here heh

as far as gettign a hard dick ... maybe we have a free alternative to viagra here!

as far as Splork/Rick crying, since you decided to cut and post my old posts, i can do the same but i will keep it from this string only

"But some of you have chosen to ship silly items to pthiefs in an attempt to stuff their mailboxes. This has basically ruined ship for all of you since it has pushed the amount of shipped items to the max.
"

"While I may agree there one should be able to refuse a package, quite frankly, im getting very pissed off with everyone suggesting more stuff for us Immortals to do when all they would have to do is respect the system. We add something nice like shipping, a few idiots screw with it, and what does everyone suggest? Have the imms spend more hours adding safety measures.

Its getting to the point Id rather spend 2 minutes and yank the code then spend an hour adding precationary measures because of a few jerks.
"

"I guess you can thank Ezekiel, the pthieves, and anyone else who felt they should mess with the system... "

"And btw, don't lay the blame for this on the Immortals. You **** up, accept it.

'If anyone screws with this system before we can fix it, they will be wiped. Case closed. No arguing about it. "

lastly
i have invested many many hours of my life playign this mud, i feel i have the right to post my bad negetive anoying or ,however you wish to desribe my posts, posts, if you dont ******* like it, then don't ******* read them

chupa mi culo!

Luv
Shadis

Ship Items

Postby Avatar » Thu Nov 10, 2005 5:31 pm

Just a quick question. The unclaimed items from shipping, do those go to the Auction House or is there some other command to check them?

I need cheap eq!
