    It's not a very real issue if you commit to what you're doing and turn them in.
    Are you really going to collect 300 stacks of alexandrite before you even reach the part where you can turn them in?
    if I wanted to start a mythic, I'd start by getting all those assault repeats and the beastmen NMs and nyzul tokens done (which is what I would have left to do) THEN I would focus on the alexandrite.
    ITT:
    Topic: Let us stack Alex like dyna coins.
    You: Just hand them in, if you can't commit, dont do it.
    Topic: Reasons why that is a terribad idea.
    You: Don't do alex until you'e completed the rest of the quest
    Topic: Reasons why that is a terribad idea.
    You: Let them store it on a NPC and take it off later.
    Topic: This achieves the exact same thing. Would take a similar amount of dev time.

    Now you propose an idea that achieves the same end result, requiring likely the same amount of development work, after originally stating
    Just because it does or doesn't have a negative effect on <insert person or thing here> doesn't automatically mean something should be implemented (Nor does it mean it shouldn't). That baing said, I'm not "against" it. I only see it as unnecessary, a perk, a bonus, and something that is of such little importance that dev time could be better spent in other areas.
    If you think it's of such little importance that the dev team's time would be better spent elsewhere, then why did you suggest another method of achieving ecatly the same outcome as the OP (reduced inventory space) that would take a very similar amount of dev work?

    You were wrong and misinformed. Now after being shot down by every single person in the thread you are trying to save face by providing an idea that achieves exactly the same, instead of just taking it on the chin like a man and saying "whoops, I guess I was wrong".

    I was neither wrong nor misinformed. Now after agreeing with the original suggestion and offering ways to improve it further, I continue to be attacked baselessly and trying to save face BECAUSE i'm being attacked baselessly, instead of not taking it on the chin like a man and saying "Woops, I guess I was wrong" because I wasn't wrong.

    If you think it's of such little importance that the dev team's time would be better spent elsewhere, then why did you suggest another method of achieving ecatly the same outcome as the OP
    Because I didn't want to sound as though I hate all ideas and disagree with everything, because I don't. IGNORING WHETHER OR NOT I CONSIDER IT IMPORTANT, if the devs want to implement something about this, that's how I would do it. That's what the idea was for.

    I never once in the thread said the OP's idea was bad, but everyone seems to be getting the false impression that I think so, simply because I didn't consider it to be "important."

    The OP has a good idea. Although not originally enthusiastic about it, I offered suggestions on how to take it and make it better. If I was wrong about anything, it was my choice of words which were not very carefully chosen, I will admit. But I don't consider myself to be wrong about the level of importance, nor do I consider myself to be wrong about my suggestion further improving the original poster's suggestion (by combining the two).

    You're continuously attacked because having taken 3 or 4 attempts to show you why not working an alexandrite whilst doing the other parts of the quest is a monumentally stupid idea, we got bored of trying to reason with you and are not trying to bully you out of the thread.

    So go home.

    Why not? was the idea really so perfect, blessed upon by the gods, kissed by rainbows, hearts and faries and could not possibly be enhanced in anyway?

    Nobody is that perfect.

    noodles355: *attack Al personally* *attack al personally* *attack al personally*
    Al: *defends self*
    noodles355: *attack Al personally* *attack al personally* *attack al personally*
    Al: *defends self*
    noodles355: *attack Al personally* *attack al personally* *attack al personally*
    Al: *defends self*

    This is what I see. You obviously hate me, so why not just say that?

    when did I ever say that? Seriously! When did I ever say that? I said that *I personally* would FOCUS (not exclusively do) on the other parts of the quest first. Why? Because I can't do salvage to collect alexandrite AND do all those other things at the same time (realisitically). Sure, I would buy it if I ever saw it, but I wouldn't be bending over backwards until I was at the point where I needed them. Never once did I say "This is how YOU should do it."

    And why are you taking 3 or 4 attempts to show me something that isn't even an important part of what I've been saying the whole dang time?

    The point is, you pass off the idea as "this will not be much of a benefit to anyone and id rather not waste the developers time on this " and then turned to "they should do it THIS way to save space, but not your way"

    Pretty much making it seem like if they did it the way the OP wanted, it would be a waste of their time, but if they do it YOUR way, it somehow isnt a waste of their time.

    Honestly, would have been much better to have been like "I like this idea, but if they cant do it that way, perhaps they could do it this way"

    All you are doing is back peddling and trying to save face at this point.

    I'm neither backpedaling or saving face. I don't have any face left to save, because I'm constantly being attacked for not automatically saying "OMG, original poster! Your idea is the best idea ever!"

    You know what? I am truly sorry. I'm sorry I ever thought that the original poster's idea was anything less than absolute perfection. I will try to restrain myself from brainstorming or trying to improve upon an already good idea.

    I don't mind trying to improve an idea, unfortunately, yours didn't improve it.

    How so? How does the ability to remove alexandrite from the NPC, and being able to give him alexandrite before completing everything else not improve the idea?

    As silly as this may sound, aside from that stuff, if you were to get hacked or had your account looted, most RMT wouldn't think of going around to all the NPCs that store stuff in the game and taking everything off of those. So it would actually be a slight security measure.

    Im not against it, if it was added along with being able to turn singles into 100s.
