OK in answer to that is what I typed above....all the test character copied to live were DELETED!!!!! Therefore they will not show on live ever again. So that arguement is null and void now as SOE resolved that issue. I also told you the characters were leveled legitly...their toons were already created and high lvl by the time Isle of Mara was released so there was no power leveling going on. The only thing that did not disappear after Isle of Mara was plat and backpacks given to buffed toons and ONLY if the items were sent or given to a legit from a buffed toon. ALL BUFFED TOONS WERE DELETED!!!!

There may have been a loophole in that the newbie island was not the only way to get the char to Island of Marr and a number of players used this method instead. This leaves it questionable as to weather the devs deleted all these chars.

Yes all the toons that were buffed by the buff bot on Isle of Mara were DELETED A LONG LONG TIME AGO!!!! They no longer exist on any form on the test server so please let this go.

I want to add something here:

I could care less if the entire world population was copied to test but to move or copy back is just wrong. Test server is not suppose to be in any way related to live servers. I for one did not keep any of my chars and would never think of asking for one to be sent to live because I did group and get PL'ed with a group of twinks.

I agree altho it would be nice for me to have been able to transfer my lvl 67 mystic from test to live but oh well. My own toon while yes being PL'd through the twenties...I did the rest of the work myself on my own toon and she is only wearing xegonite armor mixed with a batch of treasured jewelery so I doubt most would care...I have one piece of fabled loot from labs that I could use in the future on her...and one fabled piece from a KOS raid zone. That's about it.

I do agree what SOE did was very wrong....my own suggestion is that instead of doing all that stuff under the table so to speak is that they should have offered the whole of the test server the option to transfer or copy off test during a one week grace period since the server is dying a slow death and there are only a small handful of people left there now...most of the regulars now either play on live or quit the game and moved on to other MMORPG's.

I have given this some though and I come to a couple conclusions Kesselia.

It would have been better had I read the original thread from start to finish and realized that the whole thing was resolved. therefore I would have never had the knee jerk reaction and posted anything. That would have been the best thing ever IMHO.

Now however it is in the public eye so there is nothing I can do to reverse that.

Secondly after taken a few days out of game I realized that it is just a game. What the fuck should I care that it has bugs. Why should I spend my game time or real life time for that matter writing bug reports in a game that does not have bugs in the scripts. Why should I spend any time tracking plat sellers, afk farmers and spelling errors. Who really cares the game will survive without me.

It would have also been better that in Febuary of this year I never spent the 1500 bucks to buy a new computer so I could play EQ2 at better than extream settings. Because then I would have never had to reinstall it and check that everything was working. I would have never came across this toon still sitting on my account that was what you said DELETED and DID NOT EXIST. It would have been better that I just played this non existant toon and not been honest and deleted it. It would have been better that none of this happened but it did and I guess we all learn something.
