Okay I logged in emptied my bag and was still 274 weight???

I killed myself cuz I can only care 275 and it resets

I log back in 10 mins later and im 349 weight

This is gosh darn annoying. I have to kill myself every time I log in?!?!?

He has a Replica stable thing
Hitching rope
and the big Gems from the Gem Cart Vet reward and they all have the normal weight


Tried to die this time and now im over weight as a ghost.

I had this problem before, 300 some stones while naked and with an empty pack. Just had to page a GM to fix it.

Would be nice to know what causes this to happen...if nothing more than for curiosity's sake!

It's like a Christmas Carol, all those heavy chains Jacob Marley had to carry around as a ghost! It seems you were especially naughty! :D

I'm not sure if it was ever fixed or not, but the salvage bag used to be bugged so that it could make this happen. Basically, do not use the "Salvage All" option and do the leather/iron separately. If they fixed that, then no clue what it is.

I've never owned a salvage bag and this still happened to me.

Its happened to me several times, but that was some time ago (years I think). Never knew what caused it, I don't think it ever happened more than once on a single character, and each time I had to page a GM to have it fixed. I have no idea how badly current staffing may affect your page - good luck!!

I had this happen years ago, paged a GM, next thing I know I'm booted out of the game and when I came back in I was normal. So I guess they reset your character or something? It's definitely fixable anyways.

Make sure your page is very specific, something like:
I am overweight, even as a ghost I can't move, and need to have my character reset.

I had this trouble once when the salvage bags first came out. Hopefully a GM can help you.

when you page tho... MAKE SURE YOU TELL THE GM THAT YOU WANT YOUR ITEMS BACK. Otherwise the idiot will make them disappear instead of giving them back to you. And they can do that. the GM reviewer said that it should have been that way.

Not sure about that. If you mention anything about wanting items back you might get a canned message of them saying they cannot replace items, lol. Of course that does depend on how well they read the page.
