Once there was this highbie, let's call him Loomis. Loomis was
one who was considered good mudder, he knew how to make exp
efficiently, and he sure did it. One day Loomis noticed he had
become pretty bored with all the mudding. Well he decided to
still go on with the mudding. He had seen it all and had it
all, but hell, some extra money is never bad for you. So he
killed some monsters with relatively valuable pieces of
equipment with his highbie friends (who also were more or less
bored with real playing). They learned how they could make
_a lot_ of those pieces by somewhat small effort. Loomis and
a bunch of his friends even learned ways to check on those
monsters without having to go there yourself and check.
Loomis had made hundreds of millions of money by killing these
monsters repeatedly and selling equipments to poor newbies.
Then once a new day rose. Angry immortals decided it was time
for that one monster Loomis had been raping to eat some shit.
All of this monster's equipment was tuned to useless.
Loomis thought "Damn" then after a while he thought "well, I
still have those 29 monsters I can rape". Several newbies that
had spent days and weeks making money for that one item they
wanted so badly now can "throw a waterbird" with it.

Do you know this Loomis? If you do, could you please tell him
to stop this and try to search something more developing to do?

yeah i was that newbie i lost two doge staffs i sold all my eq to get them
weeks before removal

just to inform you, dodge staff is quest item, not some eq mob to be raped
