Hi,

I don't know if this is the right section to post this, but as i couldn't pm any admin, i'm gonna post this here. I want to ask about something. Is there any rule, that states, that BH winer shall get the drops(mold, 3 stars or w/e). And as that's what is known in the game, what can i do if my drops get stolen by some squad members? as it happened to me quite enough.

Thank you for your help,

Kind regards...

    There's no official rule about it, and there's nothing that can be done about it unfortunately. It's a risk you run going with random squads.

    It isn't a official rule, but on some servers it's the habit that the winer gets all the good drops. If he/she has paid the whole wine...

    If you have to pay for the wine... it's your drop

    unless splited wine cost with all members of the squad
    (Example: Everyone pay 40k wine fee, then random drops)

    First, you should state that on squad chat before wine it, so everyone is aware and agree with that. Almost all 'pro' players will stick to the honor code and drop the goods if the "winer gets drops" rule has been called at the beggining.

    Second, If you are making the squad, you could set it to Free drops. However this work better if you're squading with trusted people since it needs others not to pick up the drops.

    Third, and the most important, squad with people who you trust. The issue you are experiencing happens mainly when you join/make a random squad. As personal preference, I like to charge fee on that circumstances and gamble for drops when I squad with people I know, or trusted people from one of my friends.

    This same applies for TT runs.

    First 4 replies are from non-RT chars...either:

    1) The other forums are boring and people from other servers actually read RT forums

    or

    2) Lots of RT people are spammers and cannot answer legit questions with legit answers

    Anyway it's an unwritten rule, it's not official, but it's accepted. If people steal your drops, then blacklist them. (Although if you blacklist + not squad with too many people it's going to be pretty hard to find a squad considering that numbers seem to be decreasing)

    @VenoProwl: What did you do to my Faction leader? (Trump) :P Saw your signature.


    About stealing the drops, it's an unwritten rule that honnest people follow. People that don't live by that rule are poor and pathetic people that probably don't have friends in real life or in game. It helps to squad with trusted people. And for the people that don't have any people that they can trust: GET A LIFE! It's not hard to find trusted people in this game.

    I can add some names here of people that steal drops cause i've met some. Some in my own squads, some names that i hear from friends. But i don't... I just keep bothering them myself and all members of their faction. Make them wish they have never done it and give them a bad name ammongst their own friends and faction. These things just really **** me off...

    Best thing to prevent it is never pay the wine when you join random squads. Just split costs when you do and if people don't want to split, leave and find another squad. You can find bad people everywhere and if i get the chance, i will hunt them down and make them regret. Give them what they deserve.

    Wine costs sharing has resulted in a lot of bad experiences >.< most notably people who kick you after you pay your share to invite their friends...
    Postingalt is a god joke too.

    Unwritten Rule that is followed. Honest people would drop the items that they got, but theres always the exception. Squad with people you trust [yep, not everyone is a badass sitting infront of the computer screen ripping people off ingame items, ijs], and the important thing is to have fun! [it is a game folks........................] b:bye
