My computer hasn't been entirely stable since the new mod (I blame.... probably me), in any case, when I restart the machine and then game and zone back in everything is fine except all my buffs are gone. Is this intened behavior? If I remember correctly it didn't use to behave this way, but it's only been a problem of late for me.

Yes, they changed it a while back so this would happen. A very bad decision. Causes nothing but irritation.

What is even more annoying is that when you DC in a quest and log back in, you are back in the tavern where you bound with no buffs and a death penalty, So now I have to repair and hoof it back to the quest and lose XP. Can anyone tell my why it is like this now? At least before when I DC, I stayed in the instance even though I always came back dead for some reason. That is my biggest problem with the new death penalty.
And when you log out and log back in the next day, you still have any buffs active that you had when you logged, why is DC different?

No whining, unless you're serving really good cheese. Otherwise, put a cork in it.

wasn't it changed because people were abusing alt-F4?

IDK, if so, it would have been nice to tell us so we know whether its working as intended or needs bug reported.

Abuse of Alt-F4 must be pretty much a minority of the population, cos the only ones I ever met were ham-fisted or laggy ppl in Von 2.
Big deal.
There's a lot more people out there having genuine connection issues for whom these changes are having a definite negative effect on the enjoyment of their game.
My guildies and I are in Running With Devils on Elite and buffing.
I go LD.
I reconnect and I'm in Meridia. We're on Elite so they're not zerging without me.
They wait whilst I make the run back alone.
I take a big xp debt on re-entering.
Great.
Changing back would be very much appreciated thanks.
