Subject: Re: [eqbards] Player wipe on Test


Nope I'm not goin back to the Test server without my items and levels back.
Sorry, some of the stuff I got is near impossible to get there. Do you have
ANY idea how hard it is to get enough folks together to do naggy on test?
Or to do a hate break?

hehe NA GA DA! Not gonna do it!

Bubye Test Server :(

It was already bad enough living in mortal terror of getting a corpse stuck
in a wall. (seriously, no GM's and no high level mages = Lost corpse & all
items) Happened to me twice

Not goin back. Just aint worth the frustration.
