when you could trade any item to anybody and the worst restriction on items were a level requirement?
In MMOs nowadays why is everthing Bind on Equip or Bind on Pickup? Why cant i trade these items to my alts or to random people i pass because they were lucky.
I remember being so happy when nice people traded me Purps in DAoC. Its like "yeah i get to look forward to using that one day"

Bolded why. BOE and BOP were created to keep you from twinking out your alts.

The no trade/drop restriction is there to make sure the player has done the required task, rather than have someone else do it for them. Level restrictions exist to avoid giving a low level character an advantage over similar level characters.
