Died on boat after zoning into OT

[solana]

I was zoning into OT on the boat from TD. As soon as I zoned into OT I seemed to be stuck in the bottom of the boat in a 'swimming" animation and then promptly died. I petitioned in game because I don't even know what killed me and I have no idea how i'm supposed to get my corpse. I'm wondering, should I make a post in the "petition" section on here? OR are in game petitions and forum petitions linked? I've been sitting in game on my character for a good hour or more waiting but I don't want to anger the gm's with too many petitions.
