Great stories!

From this thread I now suspect restores may have been at the mercy of individual whims of which ever GM your server had?

You are right. I was a teenager and just assumed the savage nature of corpse rot was part of what made the game special. If it happened today I would do things differently.

Corpse restorations make me happy. I brought one back the other day that rotted in 2010. Nothing like a 7 year break!

Yes, I was in my early 20's playing a 40 something paladin. Cash was limited and I died just before my sub was going to hit and I didn't at the time have funds to cover it. Once I got everything squared away and logged back in, my corpse had rotted. My guild banded together and regeared me, and I think my gear was even better than before!

Way back, my PC was having really weird issues where I'd be in a zone, zone somewhere else, and I'd pop up at the first zone in. For example, I would zone into BB from GFay, run to Kaladim, and after I finished loading, I'd be back at the Gfay zoneline. This happened to me when I was kiting at the Chessboard. Got my ass handed to me and respawned at Kaladim instead of my bind point. I ran to where I died and it wasn't there. No corpses in zone. I petitioned and the GMs had no account of a body of mine. Had to start from scratch.

Eventually got my epic on that same toon. Never give up!!!

Never lost gear to a rot on live, but I did accidentally delete a character.

Logged to char select, selected Toon A

Delete Toon A

Toon A still there....

Delete Toon A again..

Toon A and B disappear.

Thankfully the one that wasn't supposed to be deleted was restored by a gm after petitioning

I probably would have handled it the same way you did at the time ... also a teenager (and one that didn't know my asshole from my elbow).
