I was on the same boat with Slyde. Was humorous to see the people blaming Bards with nothing to back it up other than superstition.

Subject: [eqbards] Boat Crashes


I had one heck of a night trying to get back to Freeport from Butcherblock - the boat crashed three times. What would happen is first all the other players on the boat would disappear then you'd get dumped... The first time I was back on the dock in BB then next time on the boat on the way to BB and then finally on the boat on the way to Freeport.

The reason I bring it up here - is that several whiny players claimed that the cause of the crash is bards playing songs on the boat... The first time I was in fact playing a song and thought that it might contribute. The second time - no bards were playing (assuming no one in the hold was) and it crashed anyways. I think this was true the third dump as well.

So I am wondering if people have any experience in this. My gut is that there is no relation between the two - and this is yet another myth (like all bard songs will require mana!)
