IGN : wearemules REASON : wearemules, a Targa helm buyer/looter, looted Targa helms, left party and logged off without paying the sellers. DETAILS : wearemules agreed to purchase a Targa helm service for 120m. After looting his helms, he quit the party and logged off. We realized this only after finishing scarlion (we fought both and finished Targa first) the text that shows him leaving the party was buried by other conversations. Screenshots below are smegas from more than 1 player (myself and my co-helm seller Goated) voicing that he's looted helms and logged. Does this count as valid evidence? If not, let me know and I can remove this post. We were otherwise still scammed 120m/Targa helm loots.

Could I get some community input on what sort of behavior should be considered blacklist worthy for APQ? I think the first one is fairly clear, since the person seems to have intentionally ruined the run. The second one is what I'm most confused about--is it expected without question that anyone who joins a run has four runs available? Is it not something people should be communicating beforehand or is it just basic common sense for APQ? Even so, is it something that you guys feel should be blacklist worthy? As for the third one, my main concern is whether that level 50 character is a mule or not. Can you use mules for APQ? The other reports have been updated. I couldn't add some of them since they were unfortunately mules.
For APQ, as a joiner, I make it a point to ask if it’s 4 runs. Most runs I’ve been on would say they’re doing 4 runs. If this hasn’t been communicated beforehand, then someone doing only 3 shouldn’t be blacklisted imo since we shouldn’t always assume xD unless the person said 4 runs but purposefully disappeared without a reason on the 4th run, would be blacklist worthy since they had the intention to ruin it. There are newcomers who made the mistake of entering the map before finding a party, rendering them only being able to do 3 runs, those should be forgiven since I did the same on my first run unknowingly :x You can use mules for APQ once they reached the minimum level. Not sure if it’s 50! Many people do multi client at APQ though D:
I smega “r> apq 4 runs pm lv job gr br” every time, and yes it should be 4 runs every time unless specified by the leader/runners. and yes i allow mules, all i (and everybody else) care about is finishing all 4 runs.
Most if not all APQ runners will do all 4 runs at once. Very rarely will you find people just doing 1-3 runs or recruiting players who can do 1-3 runs.. It's definitely not like the other boss parties where you can "suddenly" leaving after X amount of runs. Once in awhile you will have people asking if it's for 4 runs to make sure that there aren't any bad apples, but we all just assume. Unfortunately there will be that one pooper who would ruin it for the entire party. Example : giving up after 3 runs because they're not satisfied with the amount of onyx apples they got. Like wut k..lol. Is it blacklist worthy? Yes. I have yet to see anyone unintentionally leave mid PQ, or have a reasonable excuse for it. DC-ed? That's fine, it's a regular occurrence in the server. But logging off and not returning in...forever? Very uncool. APQ is already hard enough to recruit. And yes, there are a ton of APQ mules. Appos are expensivo.
Let me clarify the blacklist on AniBahurTov. I'm perfectly fine with a mule entering my APQ (I am always the leader of my APQ runs). What I completely abhor is the fact that you consistently AFK in the APQ run. I certainly can speak for the community when i say that no one likes a AFKer in APQ cause you literally need everyone to do the puzzles. This guy literally said that his main was in Zak only after we entered the APQ 1st run, which didn't give me time to recruit another guy (aka kick him). As such, we literally afked and wasted around 10mins in the first run purely due to AFK. Then it triggered me further when he dced after AFKing again in the 2nd run. Hope that explains why I wanted to BL him.
1. IGN: portfolioMAX 2. REASON: Bundle scam 3. DETAILS: Sometimes your brain plays tricks on ya... what can you do.
Sorry, I should have been the one to clarify! The reason I was concerned about their mule status was because we don't add mules to the blacklist as they are not helpful and only serve to clutter the list. But considering the amount of investment it takes for a character to participate in APQ as well as the fact that this specific character will continue to participate in APQ in the future, I think it makes sense to add it to the blacklist even despite being a mule. If you do also ever figure out their main characters though, let us know. That said, I think it's fair to add LoveXiang and AniBahurTov to the blacklist. They are intentionally ruining other party members' experiences. If you disagree, feel free to chime in. But I'm still a bit unsure on Arquitecto, and people have given good arguments for both sides when it comes to the four runs. So as is great tradition, I will leave their fate up to a handy dandy poll.
for the APQ problems i think forumers should do a re-check with their parties and screenshot it before joining in. Therfore it will be a clean fact that ppl lies for completing their runs.
Back with my regular APQ Black List (I'm almost a regular here) IGN: RonyPony REASON: Purposely ruining the 4th APQ Run DETAILS: He didn't inform us beforehand that he only had 3 runs before we began the APQ 4 runs. He only told us at the end of the 3rd run. Refer to SS
