The simplist solution would be to do exactly what they did with salvage kits..

"you cannot salvage items on your weapons bar"

...

"you cannot drop items on your weapons bar"

Wow suprisingly this is a rather well known scam in other RPGS, like d2 and pristontale. As for not being able to trade weapons in item bars, people would still take the weapons off so they could show them to others in a trade screen.

Bumping an almost 1 month old thread (about a issue no longer present) leads to bad karma.

Well, this was recently patched to have a confirmation dialog on dropping an item shortly after trading, according to http://www.guildwars.com/news/gameupdates.html

Hello
The trees are at it as well!
Spent 2 hours on my own trying to finish Villainy of Galrath quest after everyone had quit, because I had been allocated a gold brute sword - BUT it was stuck inside a tree (along with some other loot)!! Had to quit in the end as I was literrally falling asleep at the mouse.
Normally I'm pretty easy going, and not classification of species prejudised, but perhaps AN should consider coppicing? Or maybe liberal application of weed killer or napalm. And as a last resort maybe perma-banning the trees concerned - I would prefer to see deciduous trees eliminated from English Districts and just allow neat rows of evergreens, but no way leylandii !!
The ironic thing is that if I'd had hold of the gold sword then I might have been able to chop the tree down myself.
Cheers
