Unless the work off a RL Time stamp. then when the servers come online the Ah will know how much RL has went by and return all items, including all zones being taken by beastmen & traverser stones coming out our ying yang....

I for one am done. Flame me all you like... We as a player base have dealt with SE's inept approach to everything for years now. I'll be taking my talents to Rift until a suitable replacement hits the market. Yes I feel for the country of Japan in this dire time. I feel nothing but contempt for a multi-million dollar company that won't make previsions for its' player base.
