You sound upset.

I've never lost a corpse in the entirety of my time playing this game, Live or P99. But if something did happen and I wasn't able to retrive it, be it RL circumstances, or a rage quit in my feelings, I'd be more than happy to accept the compassion and generosity of a GM corpse summon. Everyone works hard for their gear, everyone has put time into their characters, and (IMO) it was a dumb feature put into the game to begin with.

GM intervention on corpse retrieval is Classic. Sorry you think that's "cheating". I look forward to not seeing you on Green.
I think corpse rots were fine for EQ as it was released, where you were wearing at most bronze armour and wielding minotaur axes most of the game, armour that could be cheaply replaced with some perfectly adequate vendor bought leather/axes immediately, then replaced with similar items to what you lost within a day of play.

However, as the game expanded, and a much higher level of equipment was required to progress through content, as well as that equipment being far less easily replaced, that pretty much necessitated a corpse restore function.
