An old character from a decade ago.

Post by Jagon » Sun May 21, 2017 7:38 am

Hi all,
I've been away for quite a long time and making a little foray back into the game. I used to have several characters but only ever got one of them past lvl 30.
That Character was Jago of Sheinar who was a corporal, if not Sgt in Baerlon Town Watch. Now given it's been a long time but i found some old logs and some old zmud versions and couldnt get him signed in, logged in to the game and checked the whois command and it comes up "Jago of Sheinar is a level 51 human"
Now, I know for a fact I never got to level 51, but I also know i got to level 30, shouldnt the char have been saved or was there a purge at some stage?
If not how do I go about checking in to the character?

Does anyone know the current Jago? or is the player active. It doesn't seem like me to give the character away as I always intended to come back.

Well, I found this in a log from February 2012:

[War 2] Jago of Shienar

Then also in February 2012:

[ Jago advances to level 51 ]

That looks a lot like a character that had deleted and was remade. Considering they were exping on pine trees, it looks as if they were powerleveled over the course of like 2 weeks, at most. If this wasn't you, the name was re-created by someone else.

If this character was in fact created in 2012, any info from a previous incarnation's level is gone. I've seen it happen many times though, that someone was level 30, dies and drops to 29 and loses a character because they were under the assumption that they were above level 30.

So perhaps you should use Jagone as your new moniker...! ;)
