As best as I can tell, this is because the character's current "state," which is to say buffs active, toggles running, power recharge states, active pets and so forth gets lost. When you zone into an instance, you don't move from the zone to the map. Your character is actually destroyed and a brand new character is spawned in the instance, with all of your old states applied to this new character. That's why you hear all of your toggles restart when you zone in or out - because they do. Your character zones in with NOTHING, then the game reads what was supposed to be running and THEN the game reapplies your toggles, buffs, debuffs, continuing DoT effects, resummons your henchmen and pets and so on. Ever notice how your passives and buffs rearrange when you zone? That's because they get reapplied all over again.

Something happening to the server that's causing it to lose that information in transit, so you spawn in the new map as though you'd just logged in for the first time in a week.

One of them was a new company I'd never heard of.

Did the usual tagging of "Ignore Spammer" on each then commented in Local (since it was obvious that they were still laying the spam on thick) "(Die in a fire, RMT scum!)"

Now as an actual burn survivor with some large and interesting scars (stupid itch) I'm generally not one to use such a colorful phrase. But hey, OCR and the GMs aren't doing anything about this anymore. I felt entitled to a local grouse. After all, you can't play the game without seeing them anymore.

Imagine my, well...shock, when about a dozen plus people laid into me DEFENDING the RMT people. I was told that I was worse than they were, repeatedly, for (translating from the ae monkey-farming speak) "criticizing new players."

Now I don't know if they meant "new players who violate the EULA by buying inf." or "new players the RMT spammers had no vet rewards," but it would seem that the pro-RMT camp is pretty big and the anti-RMT is the minority. Maybe the pro-RMT camp is the same as the monkey farming camp, but I'm sick and tired of my personal game time being compromised by people flagrantly violating the EULA.

And for those who will soon ask, "Why bother posting this here," it's because I'm looking for commiseration. I know nothing will happen.

For some reason, the game is adamant about giving me 96 and 97 to-hit rolls. Only not when I actually have proof of it. The moment I fired up HeroStats, I suddenly stopped missing altogether. Then when I turned it off, within a day I was back to seemingly intentionally missing my biggest attacks and forcing streakbreaker after streakbreaker.

/It IS Pinn Badges that I hang out on, right?

IMHO d20 killed interesting RPG design. I've always been a fan of mechanics giving flavor to the system (the greatest example of this being the original Deadlands).

Oh well, I guess I'll check out the latest iteration of Champs instead.

It would have been great to have been able to change him over to ss/wp instead of making and leveling a whole new toon.
