I like posting as other people and getting them dates with the most mis-matched people I can find. You can also use noise command to tell u when MB has reset and play your playstation3 or whatever while you wait for the beep. It's not botting and it helps when groups are closed and/or dead ICQ'ing for someone to come help. Also good for when doing laundry.

I wouldn't say it's a mis-match. I use to play "Leaf" and he was able to kill
in there as 40 38 xx xx. Made him like 3x40 within a few weeks soloing
in there. Sure i died and corpsed alot, but made alot more.

*bump*

I've been cycling 4 somewhat legendary stingy (quest) mobs for well over 24hrs of playing time without pops now... Look, I'm ok with it, and I will continue to do this until they pop... I've had lots of fun in between... but with that said... To kill a mob 50 times in sloth is something I've accepted... but going on after this... I think highlights a counter productive aspect of a game, that's supposed to be made for fun and enjoyment.

A 1/50 chance of a pop rate is an average... And typically the deviation can be twice the ratio meaning... sometimes it will only take 1 or sometimes 100. The chance of it being over 50 kills is 50%. Like I've said... I will continue... I will win! But this cost is stupidity and counter productive in a game meant for fun, isn't it?

Rynquald said it all. Everyone of us has his fast pops and long pops. Ive poped 3 lava mages in row, a lot ppl have cycled him for months. Thats life, youll get lucky with other pops. Everyone who wrote here that its ridiculous, check your memory for fast pops you had (which were supposed to be long) and that balances your popruns. You cant get every pop to be poped at least within dices (like 1d50, 1d49 idea).
I never liked gold runs (until elemental school area), my money getting way was poping rare pops or forging eq that was sellable - feathered cincture, infernite gauns. Not that those are with good poprate but I still got my coins :)

AND STOP WHINING!!

If 1 in 50 was an average, no one would have any eq.

My bad, change the "A" to an "IF." I really don't claim all eq is 1/50 heh...

Was a funny night tonight, ISP fibre link was failing, causing 2-5mins lags. One of the mobs popped, it took me about 15mins to get there shift and kill it. I also finished up another quest... so on my most successful night in 4 to 5 days... I get the luck when my ISP is barely functional...

In fact I wrote this entire post waiting for my rent command to make it through to the mud.
