Question What would you do?

Ever played a game so much that it becomes a regular fixture of your dreams? I just woke up from a dream where the server was wiped; every character was reduced to level 1 with no gear and no money. Myself, I grudgingly began leveling up again. But what would YOU do?

That has been my problem here. I have had every class and race about 5 times with 8 alts. So yeah, I have had a wipe about 5 times already. And just yesterday I lost 3 bags of gear that I dropped on the ground in a hut to give to my other alt. Happened before once also. SO I know all about wipes.

You'd be better off paying someone to do the xfer then risking it on so much gear..

It's the journey.

Another new journey with everyone? Hell yes.

Already in the process with a mage. If you dedicate yourself enjoy having that tank merc get you to 65 in under a day. I spent a bunch of time doing pointless side quests, tasks, and achievements and my /played in still only 3 days to halfway through 60.

Also enjoy having Defiant and Consigned max your stats at level 30 and have enough hp/mana regen to fight eternally while mounted.

What's going on with SWGemu lately? I haven't played for over a year. Have they actually accomplished anything in that time? Have any more classes been completed? There were no pets, no Biomechanic, no Droid Engineer, no Animal Trainer etc etc when I left. Have they made any progress whatsoever or is the project as basically dead as it appears?

I vote "Quit altogether".

Because I enjoy EQ so much I would be temped to grumble and bitch and just restart a charactor.

One thing would stop me. The trust would be gone. Right now, you have to place a rather huge amount of trust in Nilborg, Rogean and gang in order to devote so much time to the game. It is riskier than placing trust in a paid for game. After all, the motivation of the creators seems to depend entirely upon their whim.

If they wiped, I could never believe that that would not wipe again when it was convenient. I just can't play under those circumstances. True, I love the journey, but I also love the accomplishment of gaining levels and items.

I don't really think Nilborg and crew would ever "Wipe" the server. I think they understand that a lot of people on here are older and have a lot less time to devote to the Grind, just like them. So a lot of people on here would just quit for good if that happened.

But I am sure some day the server will probably just shut down. Lake of interest, time or resources by Nilborg, or the player base dropping down to nothing. It is a risk now on Red to have that happen..
