Ah, the limited inventory is a pet peeve right now. I spent a half hour on the phone with a customer rep last weekend, who directed me to the chat help (who really had no idea what I was talking about). I also visited and spoke to 3 GM's who ignored my inventory question (but clearly stated that the hat would not count towards our inventory).

I did the clothing quests prior to buying new clothes. This means that in most categories, I now have 4 items (3 quests and my starting item). I can't buy any of the clothes without selling a quest item. If I had bought clothes first, I'd be able to hold more. Why am I (along with countless others) penalized for doing the quest first? If we can't buy new clothes . . . why should the tailor shops even sell them?

And now . . . this free hat. I was specifically told by a GM last weekend that it would not take spots in our inventory. And it does?

I am a paying customer and can't even utilize features of the game. Do they even realize how frustrating this is? I'm not asking for unlimited inventories, just that the quest items (or free items) should not count towards our inventory limit.

I feel the exact same way. I worked on the quest to earn my outfit, and now I gotta sell part of it just to get the free item? I sold my Truehound hat to get this bandana and I have no way of getting it back (but I don't care if I dont because it's ugly). If they say it will not take a spot, the smart thing for D to do is actually make sure the hat doesn't take a spot.

I had a feeling this is where this was going to end up. One of the very last things I was persistent with with a GM was if we would have space with quest items and/or rare drops for this clothing.

I got the response of its being worked on, but the answer I felt I got was we would need to make room. I posted that earlier on the tavern take over thread, to make room.

The worse thing of all this is its not the first time, this has happen before with the tattoo quests, then followed by the Mothers day tattoo's you couldn't hold.

I am surprised it was listed somewhere that you could hold them though, perhaps they will alter it later during this event.

And the feast has now began! The event isn't much so far, but it was a bit more than I expected. Rose came to the server and of course did the usual little greeting bit. Then explained that she was going to light the ceremonial bonfire. Appearantly the GMs have a special staff, a lighting torch specifically, that they use to light the fire.

Now for the special treat. Upon the bonfire lighting and the pork roast lighting, you can indeed pick up 10 "roast pork" from the roast pit. They act like tonics, and each will heal for 2000 hp. Assuming they do as they said and have stories and dancing of old, I'll update this post with more info.


Only thing I have to say was odd is that we picked up pork roast... but we eat a turkey leg? (Well, it kind of looks like the pork roast they give you now that I think about it, but I'll still believe it's a turkey leg.)
