Boy, I'll tell ya, I be sick of seein' the damnable packers parked in the most inconvenient places! Does it really be that tough to park 'em at the stable? Ain't nothin' but trouble to us honest folk when ya leave them beasts in front of doors and along walkways. By Jena, that stable boy be nice enough to park 'em fer ya fer free! What be the problem?

Man I hear you. It is getting a bit past a joke now. Apartments seem to be getting it big time.

yea, but they're not much of an obstacle there. Its the packers in doorways, ramps, in front of merchants, and some even clustering around TPs that are the major problems.

there is all kind of reasons to leave packers where they are.
i dont like it either, but i'm been quilty for dragging packers infront of app teleport (and it's not because i'm lazy). not a big deal - you can go thru them.
getting upset for such a thing is silly.

At least in FH I have heard of people parking their packers in front of the stables, only to find that some careless beginning harvester purely by accident and absolutely without any intent had caused a raw materials source to blow up or to gas directly beneath that poor mektoub. Which then of course died of said events.
However I haven't seen a dead mekkie in front of FH stables in a while now.

Way to break the mood...
The fact remains that it is both annoying and unnecessary when they could be left to the sides of public throughfares. Instead it's folks like you who dump them into shared guild hall entrances, teleporters, and narrow walkways, thus making travel inconvenient for others. I was making a joke, but since you want to get serious, I can play that game, too.

you say you know me, but yet you fail to recognise a joke i made.
gh entrance, teleporter, narrow walkways... do you walk differently when you have packers on follow ?.. or when you need for a sec to go to your app and get some things from there/store things. it just takes min or two. you just have bad timing when you see packers in said places
(.. and then there is "idgara" reason)
if you think it's intentionally placed there, then report it to GM.
btw, my packer have not seen city much for a long time (3 or 4 months now). and if they are in city, i put them to stables.
sry for taking your post as a whine. i apologize.
