1. Either you were rude in your /petition
2. You tried this when there weren't as many guides in the game
Few weeks ago I saw a low-mid level fellow resurrected by a guide outside
the minotaur cave within the hour of his death, around 1 AM EST. I had been
the one who suggested he /petition, and told him to phrase it somewhere
along the lines of, "A bug where I was charmed through a wall caused me to
die and now I cannot get my corpse." Important to have the word "bug" in
there somewhere, I told him.
This is not ridiculous, you will get help. Now, if one phrased a petition
something like, "Stupid game got me killed. Get me my corpse now," there
likely will be no assistance. Not implying you petitioned this way, Mully,
but I'm certain many do. Time shouldn't matter too much, believe Guides
play at all hours like anybody else.
