That's a VERY bold statement and I hope you have proof not only to back that up but to send to Mesanna.
Not overly bold or new. It is a known fact, known by many. The only way to eliminate it would be to eliminate Event drops. Or perhaps Make them no more common then the drop rate of a Slither.
The system was broken as soon as they allowed players to effect rewards and drops for other players. Who could possibly believe that EM's would sit by and watch Drops that they facilitate to get sold for 100's of millions and not want a piece of that? Their reward is what...a free account and minimum wage pay for 4-5 hrs a week. And Mes doesnt believe her EMs would do this....why??? Because she take this seriously??? Dont make me laugh...if she took it seriously she would stop it.
Think about who EM's are.... For the without exception they are the players many with 17-18 year accounts...have never taken a serious break from their accounts. Have multiple accounts...are UO equivalent to HOARDERS, with chests and houses full of stuff that they dont need, cant use, but must have because this game feeds a personality disorder. No they wouldnt talk to other EM's and find stuff out....or go to other shards for the global event that only they know exactly what to expect. They wouldnt tell a few friends to convince them to come along.....Of course not....
No,.. none of that is believable at all.
My statement isnt Bold, it is common sense! Mes doesnt need anyone to name names she just needs to open her eyes. She doesnt because a corrupt EM program looks better then no EM program on the spreadsheet.
