i'm not sure exactly what the name of these quests are but they take the piss when botting in certain areas. they are started by looting a distress beacon, and as it is for a quest you can only carry one, so when botting if your unlucky enough to loot 2, wow will tell you that you can only carry one of these items. leading honorbuddy to re-attempt this loot, for ever and ever... and will not kill any mobs until you delete the original item... just wanted to know if their was any way to fix it, and if not; just thought i'd give the heads up....
2 ways to fix it. Click the item and accept the quest. No more will drop if you have the quest already. The other option is to download an addon called LootFilter and choose to automatically delete said item whenever it's looted.
