Not finding ANY rares in PSO offline

[DC111]

I forget where I read this (probably on this forum somewhere), but is it true that if you stack items beyond the normal amount, that you won't find red-box rares? I stack my trimates to 99... is this why I haven't found anything in about three months?

Sorry, I know this has probably been asked before. I just want some confirmation here I guess; I really miss the thrill of finding a rare item. :(

If I get rid of all the over-stacked items, and go back down to the normal 10, will I start finding rares again, or am I screwed now? :o

Oh, and if I have 99 trimates in the bank and take 10 to have on me, will I find any rares? I'll have over-stacked items in the bank, but not in my inventory... is that okay or not?

...Maybe I should just go legit. :P

Stacked items in the bank don't matter, but you inventory does. Bank the extras, restart the game, and you're fine. Unless you have a hacked mag or something else that disables the drops as well.

Solution: Don't stack, problem solved. Or, have a separate file for hacking stuff.
