Ancient Characters

I was logging into some shards with characters that hadn't seen the light of of day since probably pre-UOR. They still had their "This is a prize ticket" and a young player "This is half a prize ticket" on them, that's how old they were.

None of the characters on that shard got anniversary gifts. That same account *did* get them on other shards, but not the ancient unused characters. Just an observation, I didn't really need the gifts, but odd that they didn't get one. They were certainly older than 30 days. :)

One of them had 5 death robes on him. What *that* was all but, I don't know.

All of them were in Felucca, of course, but one of them got a VvV warning.

Weird. That worked. :p

I had already tried logging out and back in, but I didn't think about opening the bank box.

I am assuming that all char's must be 30 days old, as just before all this, (Last week) we made a new char on Siege, who did not get a gift on the 1st. I am not sure how long gifts will be on.

Any character that is at least 30 days old that logs in between 9/1/2016 12 AM ET and 11/18/2016 11:59 PM ET will receive a bag containing,


I do believe once your character turns 30 days old, and it's in that time frame, he will receive a gift.

The tickets are still redeemable, and I think the fireworks wand is worth decent cleanup rewards points.

I have a few really oldddddddddddd chars on one acct that when I log them in, I can see NPC names and hear sounds. But everything else is a black screen so I can't do anything with them. :(

Have you tried using Help? even getting relocated with "help stuck" might work.

Everybody knows really old characters are in black and white, before color was invented.
