a) Plane of Fear, don't need to say much more. Multiple hours spent on corpse recoveries without killing a single mob, a lot of us have been there.
b) During PoP they revamped the Droga zone and added higher level mobs / better drops. Two items in particular were extremely valuable, so I used to camp them on my shaman a LOT. My shaman was ntov/luclin raid geared. Well, one day something went wrong and I died. No big deal, I ran back over to where I died, only I couldn't find my corpse. I typed /corpse and it said I didn't have a corpse in the zone. This is where I started panicking, somehow my corpse had auto-poofed right when I died. It took me a long time of petition escalations to finally talk to the #2 GM on the server. He said the only person who had any power to look into the issue and possibly reimburse my gear was the server's GM Admin. Unfortunately, he just happened to be on vacation for a week. It was even longer than that before I was able to get in touch with him, and his response was basically I was screwed because "I waited too long."
This is when I quit EQ.
