Talk:Piccolo of the Flaming Fire

It's been confirmed that abuse of this item around the mailbox or auction house can lead to a slap on the wrist by your friendly neighborhood GM's :D Gamepro777 16:43, 17 November 2007 (UTC)

It was posted on the forums a month or two back, someone got warned for using the piccolo while on the mailbox.   Zurr  T ∙ C 17:04, 17 November 2007 (UTC)

I fail to see why, however. I can imagine how spamming the whole thing for minutes upon end can be exceedingly annoying - especially in crowded places, yet surely the designers would have taken that into consideration when designing the limitations on the item? Furthermore, it doesn't (as far as I've seen) interrupt any other actions of importance taking place around said areas. I think that more thought should have been put into originally designing this, TBH. Furthermore, however, I personally have never been even warned (aside from the occasional 'stop that!' from my fellow impatient user) about over-use of the said object. Although it really can get boring quickly anyway. Melaisis 02:59, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

It's not as annoying as it used to be. Sssssssssssssssssssssssss For Pony! ^{{TDon't hiss at me.•CIf you do things right, people won't be sure you've done anything at all.)} 03:16, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

In my case at least, it's not the dancing that is annoying, but the high-pitched tinkly harp noise. That gets old REAL quick. --Azaram 01:38, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

Don't make garbage up please...

"Prior to [patch 2.3.3] the piccolo made a flute like sound. Currently it makes the sound of a harp. Most likely to due to how annoying the flute sound was."

It's been the sound of a harp for a long long time. Definitely since pre-BC. I submit the following as references:

I'm pretty sure they changed the sound to a flute, but it was a very annoying sound, so they changed it back. Nvm, I'm thinking of that other flute the  [Rat Catcher's Flute].
