I agree Steve. I am angry that they wiped so fast and with so little
notice. I am not angry that they wiped. Just that we got little to no
warning. I found out this morning when I tried to log in to play on test
for a change. It's never been my primary server (ok it was while I was
powerlevelling myself to 50 there) so it's no big deal. But it was my only
50 char :( My character on Saryrn is only 44 as of now. It was nice to be
able to say I had a 50. Guess I just gotta work that much harder to get
another ;)
Am I going back? Hell no. I lost all my gear more times than I care to
remember to corpses getting stuck in walls, in geography in gates, whatever.
Then to get wiped with no notice because Verant f'd up? Nah, thanks I'll
stick to a live server. At least they back those up regularly.
