Finally Uthgaard responded to the thread like "send me a tell in-game" and was nice enough to manually do the quest and give me the item (though he can't reimburse items, he can still just go through and do quests for people; not that this is something to be expected of him, was just a cool thing he did).

Moral is keep at it if you really want to, but don't expect a speedy response. It looks like only Rogean can do reimbursements, and he's busy with other shit (most likely Kunark). Item reimbursements understandably take a pretty low priority. If I knew when I posted the petition that it would take that much time and that much bumping to get the item back, I probably would've just gone through the quest again myself; not casting aspersions on the staff here, just saying that maybe it's better to just forget about the lost item and deal with it. Don't get a sense of entitlement; this is a free server by necessity and the administrators are offering us a gift, as opposed to a product we are paying for. They have no obligation to do item reimbursements, or indeed anything.
wow.. that was incredibility cool or Uthgard. props to him.

On the other hand this shows a serious lack of support for this server. Free or not player service is vital to any online game. Just as vital as getting expansions, fixing bugs, banning hackers, ect.

I know I submitted my app to be a guide. I'm sure many others did also. Wish i could offer more help but im not behind the curtain and cant see enough to make any suggestions for a stronger player support team.


As for my issue... ill just keep on bumping and try to keep it as entertaining as possible while I do.
