I just wanted to warn everyone on Titan not to do events (especially KSNM/BCNM) with a player named Daghost. He is a thief! I did a KSNM (ODS) with him about a week ago. Well, I was getting a little tired when it was my turn to trade my orb so after the run, I wasn't paying attention enough and accidentally passed on everything including vclaw, damascene cloth so I asked him to lot on my drops since he was the only one who had not passed yet. Guess what? The douche bag refused to give me my drops. He said they're all his drops now since I passed and asked him to lot them. I was like WTF? Just because I asked you to lot doesn't mean you get to keep them. I kept telling him that I made a mistake of passing everything. It was my orb and my drops. Everyone tried to persuade him to trade the drops but he wouldn't do it.
Please.. help me spread the words.. warn your friends, your linkshell.. everyone! AVOID DAGHOST AT ALL COST Thanks in advance

Um, wouldn't a simple GM call stating that "you asked him to lot for you and that he would give you the items after" work?

lol *** no, a GM would laugh at your misfortune from behind his computer screen and politely tell you to get ***, and next time pay more attention and lot yourself.
Seriously, he would.
Sorry dude, that sucks... but it could have been a lot worse than the few hundred thousand you might've had from that KSNM

I called the GM. My friends did too. As always, they couldn't do anything..surprise? You are right. I need to pay more attention when lotting but ***happens to the best of us.

I feel for you Serp. Just goes to show how low some people will go over a game. Reminds me of the time my friend won the lot on a Sorcerer's Coat and another BLM in his party D2'd him so he couldn't get it. Case and point, some people just deserved to be punched in the face.

you know Serpecant, it's risky but you could have zoned out and then zoned back in to relot your items. when you zone out and zone back in it resets your lot results back to "----." i don't think a lot of ppl know about this but it would have been a better chance than him just lotting the items for you. just a helpful suggestion for next time.
p.s.- karma's a *** so don't worry about it. it will come back in time to bite him/her in the ***.

Whoever was PT leader could have also just QM'ed you. It doesn't matter if someone lots after, as soon as something is lotted or passed, it will drop RIGHT to you.

Did you get your items back? Just viewing your price history, or did you go for another run and was lucky again?

Of course, most people wonder why the hell you would want to do that... Well, this is an occasion where is could have come in handy... :/ It's the only way I know of avoiding an unwanted D2 besides zoning or ... fleeing... xD

/blockaid only works with players outside your party, which cant really be applied to Warp II, since it's a party-only spell in the first place.
and I'm sure /blockaid was a preventaive measure against claim stealing... since it was (and in some cases, still is) a popular tactic for a Paladin to spam Cure spells on a party fighting an NM to put himself on the mob's hate list, then putting up Invincible and using /ja's until he had stolen hate and claimed, or at the very least, allowed the mob to go unclaimed so that members of his party could act on it.
Was pretty common to see back in the days before /blockaid for a PLD to use this tactic at Fafnir to cause a spike flail.. was awesome when you got to MPK an enitre rival alliance lol

Dropping the pt fast enough should prevent Warp II from going off, no?

/blockaid is also used to prevent people from forcibly breaking someone else's synth.

I remember a long long time ago I was looking for the coffer for my RDM af and I spent like probably a week trying to get one coffer. I had some bad luck with people getting it before me etc etc....
Then finally one time I see it run up and start scrolling through my inv. to grab the key. It was on the bottom of my inventory cause I just threw it in from storage and wasn't sorted etc. So those precious seconds killed me. A damn taru ran up and opened it and ran off.
I almost cried....

sorry that you got your ***stolen but quartermaster works wonders in the future.
GMs really are *** useless. they'll "investigate the issue" which usually means that they dont really want to do anything and shut you up so you'll leave them alone.

yah speaking of quartermaster I have NEVER seen it used the past 2+ years I played except this past week when I went to an ISNM.
Cause normally open chest and person whos run it is gets to lot, but then I noticed they all went to the right person and I was like "why the *** have we not used this before?"

Dropping party should allow you to relot on the items.

GM's have rules and policies to go by to, they can't just do whatever they want whenever they want and however that want like most people think. People need to understand that. Any encounter i have had with them has been pretty good, not always going in my favor, BUT, i fully understand they're reasoning and they have always helped me to the best of there abilities. Atleast be glad they're there at all... if not we would be in some real bad trouble don't ya think?... Especially in this situation, i mean, you did pass the items AND tell him to lot them. Don't get me wrong tho, what he/she did wasn't right and i think it's good that you are warning other people but it's just one of those things where you're going to have to suck it up and move on. Stuff like this has happened to everyone at one point and i'm sorry this would happen, i know how you feel.
