Arcon ninja lotted a 100-piece from the Beerfest Dynamis LS today in Dynamis-Bastok.
Please do NOT associate with him until he returns it to the LS leader, Gregalen.

Why would you put yourself in such a position anyway?

Most ls's make members bazaar there glasses, or have a BLM in every party, i know its hard, but there are ways to protect yourself 90% to this.

The 100% way is dont let anyone join ur ls that isn't a friend of a friend lol

Ah, the usual "You could've prevented this" speech. I'm sure it doesn't help Yotevol feel any better.

But that point asides, if somebody ninja lots an item there's actually nothing you can do about it. You can buy their hourglass from their bazaar, but that's assuming they have it in their bazaar. I'm pretty sure somebody planning to ninja lot wouldn't, they'd probably put something else in their bazaar and keep the glass out, or make a replica.

If somebody starts casting Warp 2 on him, he can just drop party. Then mister ninja lotter is outside of a party lotting everything with nothing you can do about it.

As Jamofu said, the best way is to make sure shady / dodgy people don't join your linkshell.

I still think they should introduce a system for Dynamis whereby the person trading the hourglass to the markings should be able to kick anyone from the zone or make them pass a specific drop. There really is no way of stopping a ninja lotter if they're really intent on it, and it's a little worrying that it could happen at any point. You never know who might do it.

You have to pity people who steal like this, pissing off 20+ people and getting a bad name.... if thats their idea of enjoying the game then it's pretty sad. Thankfully have yet to see it happen first hand, sorry to hear it happened to you Yotevol, hope he comes around and you get it back.

UPDATE:
Acron used to be owned by Killafoshizzle.
He "gave" the toon to someone he knew.

I have talked with Killafoshizzle and he will call POL,
and attempt to take back the account and delete the character.
Once he gets the account back, he will reimburse the LS.

Even if it doesn't work, thank you for trying Killafoshizzle.

So not only did they steal from people, they didn't have the guts to do so on their own characters, thus proceeding to give somebody else a bad name.

What a pair of c***s.

As for the ninja lot, our LS employs a very simple method of protecting against it. We have all the leaders lotting on the 100 piece drops. 4 lots give you far greater chances of getting a high lotting number to protect against any ninja lotting.

Agreed. Our LS Leader has all the Officers lot from now on.
However, this is mainly a warning for others to prevent it from happening again.

FYI- after it happened, we MPKed him, caused him to go back to whitegate.
Following that, 3 more 100-pieces dropped. Got to love Karma!

Doesn't work that way in Dynamis. You certainly read this thread thoroughly.

Hamburglar's name fits him.

i also agree SE needs to implement something to help prevent this.

I'm sorry, I've only been to one Dynamis (long story, stupid connection)--You can't use Quartermaster? Or wait, now that I think about it, are you saying that Quartermaster should be able to be configured to certain items?

In city Dynamis, you can have about 60 people enter.

With about 60 people in the zone, the loot goes into a treasure-pool that is for the entire zone.
This is so that everyone gets a chance to lot on the items.

So, you can see how if anyone enters the zone, they can lot, even if they are not in a party.

This creates the problem.
And also creates the "NINJA lotter"

UPDATE:
Arcon has been suspended.
The real owner will regain control in a couple of days.

Thank you Killafoshizzle, for working hard to recover it and re-imbursing Beerfest's stolen 100-piece.

Respectfully,

Well, there is an Arcon and an Acron.
I am asking Killaforshizzle, just to be on the safe side.

Glad to hear that!
Killafoshizzle was informed the account was closed.
He's checking on it.
Thank you for the info though!
