Disturbing trend in groups: if you die, you're dropped

[Glaani]

Former EQ nerd here, and proud of it.

I'm appalled at the thought of getting dropped from a group after a death. I'd be furious.

The EQ protocol has ALWAYS been to make corpse retrieval a group's priority when someone dies. I remember many times staying on long past when I needed to log off in order to help someone do a CR. After all, it could always be me next time who needs the help to get my body + gear back. As people said above, you are your reputation, especially with such a small population as we have now.
