Alright so as everyone knows (or should know), the Tara Bank PTJ is impossibly difficult because you have to deliver a package to another player, as well as ridiculously important seeing how it's the only way to get a Fragment of Falias.
SO. I have a solution, but it will be near-impossibly hard to pull it off (similar to the PTJ itself -slaps knee-)
Let's make ch7 the no-afk channel. I'm freaking serious here. It's impossible to completely rid a channel of afkers because of trolls and noobs who don't know better but we can at the very least make the PTJ way easier.
Before I talk about the obvious flaws with enacting this plan let me first talk about the immense benefits should it succeed.
- Tara Bank PTJ will become incomparably easier than it is currently
- Because it will become easier, it opens up a new source of revenue for players (think HW, BUT WITH FRAGMENTS!)
- Because players will inevitably take advantage of the easier PTJ (and money), lazy players who don't want to do the PTJ can opt to buy the fragment instead
- If you play in ch7 your chances for a package delivered to you goes up since everyone will inevitably start trying to do the PTJ in ch7
- Did I mention the PTJ will become incomparably easier? Everyone. Will. Benefit.
"But Koryuu" you say. "If everyone starts doing the PTJ only in ch7 won't the slots get filled too fast?" Well, [insert username here] you are correct. In the future I hope to expand the no-afk to ch6 as well, but for now getting it to work in ch7 is already an incredibly difficult task.
How can you help accomplish this you ask?
- Post this thread on every and any Mabinogi forum you know (being sure to check that there is no duplicate thread first). Make sure to post it with this title so that forum-goers can check easily! Guild forums count as well!
- Inform everyone you know about the rule and ask them to go along with it. Obviously, not everyone checks forums. That's why it's important to spread this with word of mouth! Now I realize it's a very daunting task, talking to everyone on your friends list and asking them to go along with it. But please, for the sake of every single Mabinogi player including the people you talk to , do it! This cannot succeed without your help and word of mouth.
- Ask your friends to help spread the word as well.
- Start doing Tara Bank PTJ in ch7
Please, fellow Mabinogians! Let's band together and end (or at least try to end) the immense suffering that is Tara Bank PTJ!

My friend wanted me to post this off here.
I think we should roll with this, it's a good idea, thought I'd see your guy's thoughts and what-not.

There's always lots of courtesies we have in games that no one questions after awhile, It could work to cut it down a little, it's impossible to go far though.
I'm mostly helping for free fragments from a friend trolol.

Well...
If a lot more players go on channel 7, that means more traffic, and more traffic equals more opportunities for people to see party ads selling things, which means that more people will try to sell things on that channel and therefore there will still be afk people.
Plus people are lazy and I really really doubt a lot of them are going to CC every time they're going to AFK if they want to play on channel 7. Or whatever channel it is.
So far, I've done the PTJ successfully about 60% of the time, so maybe that girl is just doing it on the wrong channel...

My friend wrote this and all I can think that its pointless since its not that hard. All you have to is get the PTJ, try and find the person for 10mins, then get another PTJ.

easier the part time gets, cheaper the fragments will be
Falias fragments aren't like holy water where people burn them all the time.
Even if everyone don't afk in that channel, he's only burning himself

Won't work. Even over here I have only 34% success rate.

You'd be screwed if you had to deliver something to someone from Dashiva.
But anyways, would never work, it's like trying to get everyone on channel 7 to give you something free.

I've never had any trouble with that Tara PTJ. I'm at around 90% after doing around eight or nine of them. Maybe I've just been lucky. But it does seem a little naive to expect an entire channel to adhere to such a rule... especially with a community like Mabinogi.
Also Alexina doesn't have a channel 7. :(

Actually, the parcel is a gachapon of its own.
You can get things like Irish nightcap from it.
So it's not about getting things for free.

Tara PTJ is pure awesome to me. The fact that it is EXTREMELY HARD to do makes it such a great PTJ (even though I haven't completed it once). Wouldn't be fun to get fragments if they made it any easier, so I'd prefer to keep it as it is.

I see win in this post.
And its not like there expensive or anything. I've seen them for 80k which is hardly nothing. Beats the 1m I think they sell for in MabiKr

I saw somewhere that it was really expensive for them.
