Hey, guys. If you could pop in every day or every other to check rep values, that'd help us confirm whether or not this is still an issue.

[Lothoir]

just popped in for a short bit to check. My character's subfaction is being found, but my faction rep is set to the default values across the board, including my main faction and subfaction.

Same as above for 6 out of the last 7 days (Rep was good on Sunday).

Thanks for keeping tabs on it, guys.

We're discussing a number of solutions (some drastic, some not) for this issue to put things in a position for forward progress.

[Memnoch1962]

confirmed on my end too.. Sunday Augh 30th the rep is still messed up.

I do have a question. Would a complete wipe of the vault help? If it would I believe most of us would be willing to get the info on one of our mains so they could be rebuilt and then for other characters we could just start over. To me thats better than losing the entire server.

For it myself as well. Though I'd rather just everyone start fresh with the time line moved forward for new and exciting rp's

Two thoughts on the vault wipe, IF it were to happen:

1) How many characters are going to want epilogues? I would like everyone to get some closure if we wiped the vault, but I don't t know that we could practically do it for every character on every player. Maybe we can come up with some sort of amended character retirement policy to let people get some sort of perk on the new characters and have some echoes in-game from the old characters actions.

2) We may have to accept some compromises if we moved time forward. It seems a little odd in my mind that years down the road, the Spittlefist goblins and Viridale gnolls are a thing, when Exigo and Blackwood PC's could purge those places as a warmup on the way to Whurest and IWD. It would take some tactful story development and a dash of suspension of disbelief to reuse that old content.

[Lothoir]

Would a vault wipe even help? Has anyone tried making new characters and checking faction rep progressions?

[Sparkie]

I had to remake a toon during the rep problems, and they're hit by it.

[Doubtful]

Maybe, depending on what exactly is causing the issue. If it's caused by one or more characters with corrupt or incorrect values then it could resolve the issue. If it's caused by the sheer number of characters sitting in the vault then it could also resolve it.

If it's something else, then it won't.

A wipe would also be an opportunity to refresh the servers story, allowing us to neaten things up and create a sharper, leaner, better Sundren experience.

[jarlexel]

Checked Triadic faction with Raleigh last night, it's at zero Rep. I think a wipe and a new story would be neat, but you have to allow people to keep their old toons, A lot of people want to come back and play here because they love their toons that they played for years.

[Kaybrie]

A refreshed and revitalized story jumped a decade or two into the future would refresh my interest in the story, as would a total vault wipe, and having people start from scratch. (Remaking their old characters as older people or otherwise)

There was too much been-there-done-that on the server as things stood in my opinion.
