:evil: i want to know whats going on, i go out to college, i get back home, i check cantr and 3 of my characters (who happened to be in the same place cuz they all spawned there) are dead, and judging from the e-mail notification, they all died at the exact same moment, why is this happening?
the characters were all between 60 and 90% strength and as far as i know had no enemies. so why are they all dead (they were doing quite well for themselves too :cry: )[/b]

What town were they in? It was most likely some of the recent massacres that have occurred in game in the past 6 months.

Isn't having 3 or more chars in the same place considered automatically a CR breach?
This may be the reson, also if i think that the PD would have blocked your account, not kill all your chars.

It's not a CR breach if they all spawn there. It's more of a breach to make one of them suddenly have to leave rather than go about their business until one has a natural reason to leave, IMO.

Yeah, but if they really spawn there? How long were the char's in that area?

I think the PD would send a mail rather than killing 3 chars.

@media Raven. Did u check the last events for UR chars for any violence on you?

No it is not a CR Breach. I have four characters in a town from time to time. Plus media's three characters spawned there.

This seems more like a in game thing killed the characters. I do not believe the Players Department will delete only the three characters and they would have locked the accounts or deleted the whole accounts.

I don't think this is anything abnormal. It is probably just in game violence. What city were you in?

What did the e-mail notification say? Did they just drop dead?

The PD does not just go around killing peoples characters for no reason, and usually if we have to kill characters you are contacted and have replied to us before it does, as everyone is given a chance to seperate the characters they have grouped.


On a side note:

This most likely is nothing odd. You were not here to play. In every town there has probably been a massacre at one point in time, and some towns do not care for characters in-activity.

Since you weren't here and did have three characters in a single town it's likely that if the town is attacked and noone is there to save your characters, your characters will be caught in the attacks and end up dead. Yes, all three.

Massacres are a hard thing. They must be harder to loose multiple chracters in.

If the death reports didn't explain how they died please let us know.

If it was a massacre and you don't understand why it happened then it is pretty normal not to understand why. Possibly someone will gloat about it in four days.

If you feel that the ones who killed your characters acted together too well then contact the players dept and they will look into it.

But in answer to your question. No I have never been in a massacre. If a buch of well armed hoolgains pretending to be a goverment kill a single poorly shield chracter for silly reasons it is not called a "massacre". If they do it constantly it is still not call a "massacre" even though the body count is much higher.

..I'm ranting again...

Oh well good luck with your next three characters hopefully I will get to know one of them...
