    IRL - Newb

    Welcome to RG! (which is how I should have started yesterday). Reading my post again, it came out a lot less tongue in cheek than I intended. I just hadn't heard keen for so long it made me think of the show, and I pictured some DBG intern being forced to make some friends and get level 2...

    IRL - Newb

    Wow. Have to say my Spidey sense tingled on this one. Maybe it was the use of keen in the OP post, but it sounded like a narc. 21 Jump Street anyone? Honestly, doesn't seem reasonable that anyone would be doing a 5-6 box before searching out something like MQ/RG. Feeling bad for being so...

    Problem - Collection quests automatically taking character exp as reward

    What collections are you doing? I didn't think most of them give an option to choose between AA and regular XP. You get both.

    Question - Puller as your main/driving character?

    As always - play how you like and have fun. That said, I don't find it fun to struggle through things, so I find it easier to combine puller, MA and tank on the same character (SK in my case). Unless I am questing or gearing, if I have to tab to another character I consider it a failure. BTW -...

    Discussion - Gearing Your Toon Priorities

    If one day I think to myself "I think I will spend some time getting gear", and my tank has any equipment that is not BIS then guess what? I will be going after gear for my tank. Once the tank is fully up to date, then I might start spending time getting gear for the rest. Everything other than...

    Question - Not sure where to ask this.

    OK. So you first need to know where your EQ installation folder is located. For me, it is C:\User\Public\Daybreak Games Company\Installed Games\EverQuest. In that folder will be a folder names 'maps'. This is where the default maps thatcame with EQ will be. If you downloaded additional maps...

    Question - What problem do people need solved with a Lua?

    Not a window or UI, but Sic's MQ2Status does wonders including this. /bcga //status queststep xxxxxx is an absolute godsend.

    Problem - Tank Died - Ranger lived - no control

    Kaen01 is right - /afollow was likely on and /afollow off will correct this. To expand a bit - Follow Me is really not something you want to use unless absolutely necessary (i.e. to get them to follow you across water or a gap in the mesh). It will cause odd behavior when using any automation...

    Question - Progression vs Grinding, what do you do?

    If you aren't doing progression at least for the XPACs that have level increases you are missing out. Not only is the XP better (you kill mobs and finish quests) . And you get rewards that you cant get otherwise. Plus its the only way to level the new evolving items, and seems like that is a...

    Question - How to make your tank not suck?

    Thi might sound a bit rough, but...if you are a tank that is having trouble tanking level-appropriate mobs with a suitable support crew then: 1 - Your gear sucks, or 2 - Your skills suck. As for #1 - Sucks doesn't mean you dont have current level armor equipped. It means you don't have...

    Discussion - Let's discuss 6 boxing without a conventional tank

    At risk of ending up in Fippy's, just wanted to address a couple of things. This pretty much says that you have multiple things that you despise about this community, and then tar everyone with the same brush. Maybe not your intention, but then be more careful with how you express it. Wasn't...

    Discussion - Let's discuss 6 boxing without a conventional tank

    This is a strange way to reply to this thread. You started the thread with 'please knock me off my pedestal' and end with a diatribe on people being more open minded. So you asked for people to tell you if what you were doing was a good idea, then pronounce them with being close-minded if they...

    Happy Birthday Sic (even if you are secretly an immortal that does not acknowledge the passing of time)!

    IRL - Totally bummed out about Upload

    Being happy that anything gets renewed for another season is the new normal. Whatever algorithms those Netflix execs use, it has nothing to do with the quality or popularity of the show. Number one seems to be how expensive it is per episode.
