I'm sorry, but I *totally* disagree with you. Something HAS to be done
about the farming that goes on. Too many guilds and assholes sit around
camping GREEN MOBs so that they can get yet another item to sell at
exorbitant prices. In my opinion, the new code is EXCELLENT and just what
is needed. Why do you have to get that 2nd item "just in case?" Go get it
again or buy it when you NEED it, not "just in case." There are too many
campers for "just in case" scenarios. I say that the new patch is exactly
what is needed.
