Ok.. this really isn't supposed to come out as a whine, but an actual thought
out problem, so bear with me and don't jump to conclusions.

I have done alexandra twice. The first time i did alexandra, (before the new
warning system about anti-abuse) Morglum (evil moku) had killed alexandra
within the abuse period. This caused all the eq to turn to dust.

It is now 141 days after that party, and i went to try again. The eq dusted
again, and the warning system pointed out quite happily that i had returned
too soon.


I am NOT suggesting that the abuse timer NOT be reset on dusting. ie, right
now, if i do a mob during the period in which it's eq will dust, my "abuse
timer" is reset to 0. and it will be more than 141 days before i can try
again. THATS FINE =P
What i'd like to suggest.. is that if the person in question, has never had
the eq from the mob drop, that person not get a timer. ie If it is Player
A's first time at a mob, and the eq dusts, Player A should not suffer an
abuse-timer.
I really hope that makes sense to somebody else...
