Reimbursement
Reimbursement Quest equipment is the only equipment that may be considered for reimbursement. It will be reimbursed after a thorough investigation in which the following is determined: -It was our fault. The mud crashed, a specific bug caused some loss, etc. "It just disappeared" is not acceptable, because that never really happens. If the loss was induced by something you caused: accidental sacrificing, password sharing, losing the items, etc., the equipment will not be reimbursed. Try to be smarter next time around. -You really had the items you claimed to have. Your friends, neighbors, lovers, relatives, house cleaner, clan mates, librarian, local postal worker, and your pets will be interviewed. Your past player files will be looked at. Your history on Aarchon will be reviewed. Private detectives will be hired. If at any time doubt is raised over you actually having the items, your reimbursement request will not be honored. The burden of proof is yours. -The incident which you claimed caused your loss actually occured. Mud logs will be checked, your unlawful sexual partners will be interviewed, and the incident will be verified. As in the above case, the burden of proof is yours. If doubt is raised, your reimbursement request will be denied, or delayed. -You were respectful at all times. By taking proper precautions and using common sense, one should never lose anything. It is understood however that on occasion you may lose something, and it may indeed be our fault. Expect the process to be long, slow to initiate, an uphill battle, and feel fortunate should at some point you are actually reimbursed. Understand this process has been designed to be that way purposefully to maintain the integrity of the mud and to encourage people to take a proactive role in not losing their quest equipment. Quest items will NOT be transferred from one character to another. They are only for the original questor under their original name. If a character is deleted for inactivity, there is a chance that a backup of the player file may be restored, but the quest equipment will not be restored in any other fashion. Gold does not qualify for a reimbursement. It is easy enough to get.
