I started experiencing nib creep, not sure why.
I used Herbin ink, then I changed the color and the nib started creeping !!
I didn't drop it and it is always at home.
The pen writes great but it is just annoying see ink on the golden nib.

AdamGHIt just might be the ink. I've had Montblanc Permanent Blue continuously in my Iconic Blue for months with no issues.

AdamGHRest assured this is very normal in fountain pen use. New users tend to not like it, but I think most of us have come to accept it; if not, even enjoy seeing ink begin to fill the embossed patterns on pen nibs. In short, it is inevitable. But if you insist on wiping your nib off each time, a drier or less lubricated ink will lessen its frequency.
