So let me see... Someone(s) got an item, from a monster that the LS killed, and they got this item under the system in place at the time? And that system had no clause about returning said item?
Sounds like its Hollies Zahak's Mail to do with as he/she wants to, including ditching the shell with it.
The issue is fairly cut and dry people, they didn't ninja it, cheat it, borrow it and not return it, or be leant it by the LS bank with expectation to have it returned. Jamal n co., you're being dicks, and you probably know it. Move on.
Besides, its a fucking Zahak's mail, not an Antares Harness or Ancient Torque. Jeez.
This...especially the part about not having a return policy for the items that can be transferred from one player to another. Ultimately it was this shortsightedness that has caused all this e-drama. But who can blame him? He expected that people who lotted and won a piece of gear would be committed to the shell. Which leads me to...
All drops were for the betterment of the shell...
Explain what you mean by whats in bold...
What's in bold means the drops were to go to the players who were going to stay committed to the long term success of the shell once a more permanent lotting system was set. Getting a drop and then ditching the shell for whatever reason in no way helps the linkshell. By lotting it, Hollie basically agreed to the long term success of the shell. This gives justification to ShakenBake's call for it to be returned. But again, without a concrete return policy, there is nothing much they can do about it.
Well its nobody's now so stop attacking me, stop attacking my friends
Trying to diffuse the situation with false claims of dropping the item was the wrong way to go about things. It only raised the anger of some people and caused more e-drama.
Being a grammar nazi as a comeback is weak, youve provided better arguments than THAT Jamal :nono:
This should read "Being a grammar nazi as a comeback is weak. You've provided better arguments than that jamal."
I seriously LOL'ed at this. You start of by resorting to cussing me out, even though this thread 1) has nothing to do with you, and 2) seems like youre still harboring a grudge from our last encounter. You know, I saw a few of your posts, and figured you were a bit smarter than i gave you credit for, but i must say you managed to blow THAT out of the water LOL.
As for you saying you would pass on the item, please, not even the devil (the king of liars) would believe that one. The shell hadnt been together long enough to FULLY establish rules as to WHO could free lot and who couldnt. You seem to forget that most, if not all shells, have probationary periods where member CANT lot on anything unless it goes to free lot. This item went to free lot, so your feeble attempt at an argument gets shot down.
Next time you wanna stick your foot in you mouth, do it right so that you DONT stick it in, understood? People are having a meaningful debate here and you cant help but try to steal the spotlight and be the center of attention can you? :nono:
Says the guy who has contributed 1/5th of the posts in this thread to this point. This thread isn't about you so why are you so emotionally attached to it? Jyak stayed on topic so no fault there. This is also the FB, so he can take digs at you if he wants as long as he stays on topic. Don't get so butthurt about it. But it seems as if you also hold a grudge. You insult him and, whether you meant to or not, make it sound like you're better than him in a "holier than thou" sort of way (which you do quite a bit actually). If you're going to take shots at him, don't condemn him for doing likewise. As you've basically said before, practice what you preach. Also about the last bolded part, count his post count vs. your post count in this thread. It went from being about Jamal, Hollie, and Kotsu to being about Jamal, Hollie, Kotsu, and Hexx.
Seriously guys, quit this free Kotsu bullshit otherwise I'll up the read only to a one month ban.
I'm not on the free Kotsu bandwagon, but unless you could provide conclusive evidence Kotsu is behind it would this not be abuse of admin power? If he's not, you would be punishing him for something he had no control over. (If you did it. I'm not saying you will or will not)
To sum: Jamal takes FFXI way to seriously and seems to like to ruin people's e-lives if they break his trust. Kotsu is on read-only and can't defend himself right now. Hollie has a Zahak's Mail he doesn't know what to with (hint: think of your friends when making this decision). Hexx takes QCDN way to seriously and wants threads to die by continually posting in them. And Miros likes to abuse his admin power. Fun times. It seems like there is one or two users who need a break from QCDN that could use a Dejavu type of ban.
