Outside of a glitch (never happens), they shouldn't reimburse anything. Why waste GM time with this shit when it could be used else where? Isn't even classic.

I say fuck your epic and your 5 spiderling silks. Same thing with people who let their corpse decay because their too lazy to go get it. Gms should summon it but put a 1 month delay on it showing up in EC. Make the game some what unforgiving again.

This 100%. I been saying this for years. What sets EQ apart from modern day MMOs was lack of hand holding compared to now.

Dont restore anything except verified bugged hand ins (such as broken script from patch update or something where legit quest stops finctioning). This includes rotted corpses.

I remember people not pushing late night raids due to fear of corpse rot if there was a wipe too late and you had to work the next day.

To piggyback on that, melee even kept corpse recovery gear in the bank to fight towards wiped raids.

Your corpse decayed in 24hr online time if I recall

I've got a dozen fraps of this happening back at home on the PC, losing bags of gear over the years, and a half dozen petitions to replace items that just poof like this.

P99 aint some magical bug free place bro. Plenty of folk I know lose entire bags when looting. I can also fill entire bags with bags when buying bags off a vendor. I keep a few deluxe toolboxes full of deluxe toolboxes in bank of mules etc.

Think the best single loss was a donals bp, manastone, cle epic, theurgist star, hosh stick, fungi and something else. All just vanished while reorganising my inventory. I never keep beads/manastone/aon/etc all in the same bag on any toons now.

The GMs have been very lenient. The GMs do restore for user error. I'd imagine the vast majority are user error. Failed quest turn ins wrong npc/bad faction, accidentally deleted items, ground drops that rot and things like that they'll restore. I think items that poof in temp bags may also be included

Things I know they wont touch is if it involved Multiquest, items sold to a vendor or involved plat (such as trading your plat to the banker) those they wont process

I thought they don't do quest turn in stuff? I.e., if you screw up your epic turn in it's like tough luck. Unless they have changed over the years?

I know they will reimburse for other user error type things; i.e., accidentally vendoring or deleting an item, leaving it in a Mage bag, etc.

Solist that Infectious guy is just trolling

Just approve them all, who gives a fuck.

Backlog could be gone in a couple of hours max and the players would be happy

Achtually we have to look through them all with a fine tooth comb and *pushes glasses up* make a scientific decision based on the rules we made up for a quasi dead server full of the same 1000 people who have been playing here for 15 years

[Trexller]

Say each petition requires 15 min of work. And they get only 2 petitions a day.

Im not giving up 30 min a day for years and years

Basically nobody is going to do that

So i bet they have a crunch day here and there where several GMs knock a bunch out all at once

Just redo your quests, then 5 months later you log on and see new quest items in your inventory

I drop transfer shit constantly, cause it's way easier than dicking around with guildies or strangers to do it. Just find a spot.

If something goes wrong and I can't log back in fast enough to loot it, that is precisely the price of doing a drop transfer.

I can't believe gm's are doing all this shit.

Exactly why Shared Bank slots are a no brainer

How many things are banned because it leads to GM petitions?

Ban drop transfers, save the GMs their time for more worthy endeavors
