So if I understand you correctly what you seem to be saying is that the reason I wasn't able to get help at 4am that one time is because I didn't try to get the GMs to pay attention to my petition by posting in a 'Thank you GMs' thread? Got it.
Or maybe no one was around [You must be logged in to view images.

Also keep in mind, his petition had been in the forum for 6 weeks, so that helped his response time via his post in this thread =P. No one should be waiting that long for an item they lost due to a server error, and I apologize if you're one of those people right now (I know there's probably a couple)

That's why I get a little irked when people say something like 'you should be answering my petition instead of posting here!' - I am sorry, but I get to have fun on the box too! We aren't allowed to play characters since we are GM's, so it's good to have "fun time" with Project 1999 to not only help us stay in touch with the community, but also keep ourselves interested in the server [You must be logged in to view images.
