As part of efforts to sustain funding for the server, we are exploring a variety of different options such as a donor recognition programme, merchandising, etc. Please be assured, however, that we remain committed to ensuring that people who donate do not gain a gameplay advantage over those who do not. We're still exploring how exactly to structure such a programme; however, we will be going ahead with at least one component, as detailed below:
Donations of €10 - Character restoration
As of the posting of this announcement, individuals who provide a donation of €10 will receive the option of having one previously-deleted characters restored. Players wishing to explore this option should first contact Ares and Irming through a private forum message - including relevant account names, character names, skills, classes, etc - in order to determine whether a character may be restored. The GM team will then confirm which characters could be restored, at which point the player can provide the donation and the official request for character restoration. Once donation has been confirmed, the characters can be restored.
A few notes:
- This will be skills/stats only and does not include any equipment/piety/guild affiliations that the character may have had.
- Characters that have been deleted by GMs due to illegal activity cannot be restored.
- We cannot provide a guarantee on the time it will take to check for availability or restore characters, as in some cases it may be necessary to review data that has been archived or may be corrupted.
- The player account must have sufficient empty character slots to receive the restored characters.
- There will be no refunds for any reason, as this is still a donation and not a purchase.
