Please please PLEASE keep corpse runs back in...



Seriously do not WoWify progression =/




We plan to put this up to a vote ASAP. (and a progression server only vote at that)

Unfortunately it is too risky a change for us to slam it in, AND I am not convinced that we have a true representative sample. These would be the true original punishing corpse runs where if you don't get your corpse in 7 days, you loose your items.

There will not be, and never will be, a Shadowrest on progression server.

The side issue is it ends up costing us plenty of extra money, because no matter how much you say it, people really don't want to loose their stuff... so they cost us customer service money getting they corpse restored after it poofs. This is NOT the lone deciding factor on this, but it will be weighed against how much players actually really do want it. If the Vote is overwhelming to bring it back, and we are not overruled by the financial folks AND it is reasonable in code (The new item code was not implemented for corpses because we had no items on corpses already) we will bring it back. But there are MANY consideration as you can see.

So I am not saying absolutely no, we will not bring it back, but we are not going to spend the extra resources until we are reasonable sure the server actually really wants it. Message boards are NOT a good enough measure of the interest becuase it is only a fraction of the players.


The truth is,

there wont be corpse runs. SOe take time and fix this My ass.
