Sure, no problem. I'll name and shame if someone is offering me help in recovering what I lost. You can be damn sure the guy won't work with me afterwords.

If you guys can find a little bit of compassion in your hearts for my current plight, please help by bumping this thread in the slight hope that Rogean sees it and helps.

I didn't read through that whole post, but just for your information, this thread you referenced that you think sounds fishy:
http://www.project1999.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=159830 Was me trying to track down who owned Drowed. All of those character names were given to me by the person I originally sold the account to. So no, that wasn't me naming off a bunch of toons that I thought were on the account, that's me naming off a bunch of toons in hopes that the person that owned them also owned MY old account. | ||

I'll name myself. I'm Cloki - guilidleader of Omni (official title: Lead Hippie and/or Lesser Asshole).
I purchased an emu (more than a year ago when it was still allowed) for plat that had a L51 firepot necro attached. I made sure I purchased the emu. This was not purchased from Bardalicious/Drowed/Ruinous (why so many handles in play here)? The account had changed hands several times. Then, when it was possible, I associated the emu with my SMS (as instructed). Then, because it was MY emu, I reset all the passwords (because I didn't want anything hinky going on with MK account). I discovered a bard on red and a L49 cleric on this emu. I epiced and leveled and purpled the cleric - because I was the only one with access to it. When this person cast a broad net in this thread: http://www.project1999.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=159830 - naming six toons that are NOT on this emu, I feel like this is what's going on (from this link) in which Sirken said: second of all, id bet body parts that 90% of these people are just trying to steal back an acct they sold in the past. stay classy Look at his initial post on server forum - doesn't mention Ruinous or Bardalicious (other two toons in question) - but looks like he's casting a broad net saying: here's a bunch of accounts I used to have, I regret selling them all and now want them back, let's see how many i can get...just fishing. Pandora's box, I think - and smells rotten. I have the sense that the seller (the account had changed hands multiple times - have the PMs from the owner who sold it to me archived and can post if they become relevant) is also gonna push to have the Necro returned - says I paid too little for it (quoting the wrong price, btw) and the "my necro thing" and regrets selling, etc. And this is going on - in one of the last PMs he asked me to just sell the emu back to him - which is not within the rules. The way it stands from my point of view, I'm being pretty magnanimous offering to have the bard split off and wanting him/her to honor the offer on the cleric (xxxxxxxx) sent at 4:42pm MDT: "I'll gladly compensate you for the epic and other work put into him. I've got about 200k in assets left on blue, which includes a fungi tunic." for the work on the cleric - and I'd give up the cleric, then. But I think going back on the offer is taking place b/c this person thinks he/she has leverage right now. But from my point of view, when you sell an account, complete with the emu credentials, you give up all rights to the account, I'd think. I won't even let people tag Omni if they do not have the ability to change their passswords b/c I don't want to gear them only to have their 'toons and the work poof. Right now, there are several offers on the table to the original poster in this thread - many of which are dependent on the Server Staff. And as far as I'm concerned, these are magnanimous as hell: 1. Split the bard off irrespective of whatever else happens. 2. Cleric a) Split off the cleric and pay market value for the levels, time, epic, gear, etc. (as suggested by the OP, NOT by me). b) Level up another cleric (to 49) for the OP (and hoping for a name swap from GMs) 1) Doing it myself/within omni 2) Giving OP a chunk of cash to do it himself I've exchanged pages of correspondence with this person and he's gotten increasingly hostile - I suppose I could post all of that crap (I have in my petition) but this person has threatened to "out" me and try to destroy my reputation on the server and among my guildmates. I've got nothing to hide and I don't do well with being bullied. I have made EVERY effort to be reasonable and decent about this - when, in fact, I probably have no responsibility to pay any attention to any of this. He sold the emu, I bought the emu from someone else DOWN THE LINE, and now this shit is flying around. As it stands, we're waiting on the GMs to answer a few questions. Deru asked us to work something out among us and we've been bouncing communication back and forth semi-regularly as we can. It is gonna come down to the questions noted above (splitting accounts, name changes, etc. - event to the point of asking for no-drops to be moved). Finally, think of the precedent here (this paragraph part of my petition). There are a LOT of dead toons that got woken up with the SMS reset option - I know of a number of them myself (tho ruinous is the only one I have use of). If this gets loose and public that xfers are happening and LS accounts are being restored, you'll have to take on extra staff just to deal with that a while. Could really be a bursting dam that you don't need. (I realize I have a dog in this fight, but that remains true irrespective of my involvement.) Last thing. When I bought this from the seller, I made sure I was buying the emu. Period. Wouldn't have gotten it otherwise. What a nightmare for everyone. So, there's way more goodwill coming from my end than is probably sane. We're waiting on GMs to tell us what's possible. Oh, finally, somehow, with a petition this person managed to get the bard account -on MY emu with MY SMS - banned (tho the other 2 are still working). It hasn't been unbanned yet so things are still in flux. As soon as the GMs tell us what's POSSIBLE to do in this case (and when they're willing to do it), we'll get something worked out. If they tell him to pound sand, we'll get something worked out on the back end.
