just another bad day for me. i was grinding on black yewoas and im getting attacked by 4 red ones. i use my chains to take them all out and as they drop 1 by 1, a weapon elixir drops but i couldnt see it cuz the dead body hadnt disappear yet. so there comes some player from BrassMonkey sits on top of it and trys to get it, at the last minitue i notice the drop and click to pick it up, he got to it first cuz he was close.

so there goes my weapon elixir. i ask him kindly to give it back, he wasnt answering and didnt even after 4 mins of saying "please give my drop back, please" so i start attacking his wolf, other players around me see my red name and start attacking me, by the time i type what had happen, me and my wolf were dead.

so there it goes, the people in this game are noobs man. they should make it so you cant get the drops of another player if that player is 1-2feet away from the item. my only good drop in 5 days and it gets stolen from me.

I just hold down auto pickup after I kill a monster, even if I'm fighitng others at the time.

Why did u kill his wolf lol, that will do nothing

I'm going to have to agree, pick up your drops fast or someone else will. It only takes a few moments to hold down the g or space bar.

yeah i press g, but i didnt know there was a drop, the only other drop i could see was the blue quest drops so i thought i will pick it up later since no one can pick that up, but when the dead body disappeared there i see the weapon elixir. well anyway thats another misfortune of not having a monkey to pick up your stuff.

well to the BrassMonkey person who took my drop, i hope it serves you well, since noobs need all the help they can get. gg

when i started to play i was hunting tigers and a giant one appeared. i was like lvl 1x something and i took me a while to get rid of the thing. when i finish it some "person" came and kill my character with 1 hit (well that didnt mean a great act of strengh as my character was really low on hp). and that was for... a crappy white item. i was mad but cry on a trashy intem to a total noob is not my style so i went back to town. i also lost some items while i was fighting with a several monsters. The best advice is keep presing g till u have pick up everything
ps.: i hate when the monsters corposes take dont disapear fast :x

When the dead yeowa disappears, you still have time enough to grab your stuff. :)

The last time sum1 did that I asked kindly for the elix. Took her about 10 mins to give it back, cuz I started writing abit more aggressively but didn't start insulting her. That why I got it back but that just at my limit.

I was about to explode and was already typing "Get ready 2 die b1tch !" as she wrote "O.K I'll give it back " :D

But if that happens to me again I'll zerk and beat the shit out of the person :twisted: ...but I'll warn him/her first ;-)

press G (or spacebar in my case) to auto pick the drops up.... sometimes it doesnt work, so keep pressing Z (which shows u the name of all the drops) that way u can see if u forgot one :P

Topic starter - You do know it was your fault? And you know
if you gonna kill someone without cape that your name will
go purple then red and so others will attack you with out caring what
happend? Its your fault, Pay more attention, Stop getting upset
its not the end of the world. ITS ONLY A GAME, AND ITS ONLY A
VIRTUAL OBJECT!! not even worth 5cents buying in real... stfu...

didn't know that about the Z key, thanks.

my wife had someone steal drops from her also. she got stuck fighting two giant demon horses and numerous others with her wolf out and was afraid to stop to pick up her gold. a guy came over and instead of helping just started to pick up her gold from the first giant. by the time I got there he had all the drops from the first one.I know it's just part of the game but so is two people following you around ks'ing everything you go near after you piss them off.the best part is he tried to kill someone with murder status and died. I stood over him saying I could rezz you but you pissed me off so to bad. no one could see him and no one came to help him. it's all just part of the gaming experience.

well.. people can get greedy sometimes lol.

Like forexample: if someone was fighting power earth ghost and it droped a sos 64 weapon. What would u do?

A) Let him/her have it and say "congrats"

OR

B) Murder his/her as and get the drop

I would probably go zerk and murder him and get his sos drop XD.
SOS 64 FTW

To avoid future issues, if you dont have a monkey or a squiirel, just change the auto pick short cut button from g to spacebar.



MONKEY/SQUIRREL is the best friend for lazy gamers :D

I just love the way ppl use the word n00b in this game Image

I mean, you call the other person a n00b even when it's clear you are the "new user" (n00b).

The drop is only your's for the 20-30 seconds that Joymax have decided it's your's. After that it's deemed to be fair game.

LOL, sounds to me like you better get used to being owned :roll:

I was fighting 2 giants once, im a nuker btw. And one giant drops a weapon elixer and i wasnt paying attention to it. My monkey wasnt set to pick up 'other items' and some noob comes by and picks it up. I constantly KS'ed him for 1 hour
And stole about 2-3 drops from him, and he finally gives it to me.

Nice, taking out your rage on another because of your own stupidity.
