Look at the reliability of EZPCUSA (fresh DB as of recently) compared to Laanx (older, has buggy items in DB causeing crashes).

If you're really on Laanx for RP, you won't mind building your character up again so that we can have RP events without the server crashing on us.

Yes, it's hard work to get it back again, but that's life.

Perhaps, the dev team could think of making a week-long bonus PPs and Tria for remaking your character. SO when you finish tutorial you get some stuff to lighten the burden of training a bit.

Just a suggestion.

I always vote yes on this one.  Wipes are fun!

I am fully for a Laanx wipe. It will bring balance to the server.

Yes [so we can ask our original stats back with Christmas ;D j/k ]

I'm looking forward to a clean start, but with all the work I know others did on their chars I do think they should get some kind of compensation.
And I don't mean myself, but those who spent *days* boring themselves with mining to pay for their magic lessons.

I wouldn't mind a wipe so much if I could keep all those trias I have in the bank.  I think the worst part of starting over again is getting the trias again for training.

I voted yes here.  This will encourage more players who don't like roleplay to play EZ-PC.

This is going to happen before V1.0 anyway, I grugingly accepted it long ago. I will hate losing all the stats i gained over the last ~2 years, but most some of the unique items ill probably never find again.

Bumping eveyone to 200 for their basic stats will make everything much easier when you start fresh, no running out of breath between harns and the tavern.

I welcome a wipe. I haven't played in a while and this would be a chance to start fresh, leaving behind the characters I never use, and being able to finish quests that I can't discard and have forgotten what to do next.

I'm not concerned about tria, possessions, or stats as these can all be regained quickly enough.  I am however concerned about skills built up, and not just for myself.  I've spent countless hours working on getting magic up to realm four in all ways, and I simply don't think I would bother to put myself through that a second time.  I would probably just roleplay and explore a bit, then pretty much give up on the game if I got bored.  I suspect some others would react the same way.  A wipe at this point should probably consider if it's a complete reset of everything, or something that attempts to simply remove the problematic elements allowing other things to remain.

How many players are active on EZPCUSA?  That is probably a good representation of how many would play a lot post-wipe, as that was essentially a similar experience except voluntary.

Well, I haven't been playing as long as some people but I am sure gonna miss some good (not awesome) stats. In time I'll make it all up. But I'm gonna miss all those special items too (I can't even or never used most of them XD) Though I'll be okay without anything to do roleplaying :)
