Yeah, I've seen that bug before.  Happens to me sometimes when I host my server and join in as an admin.  Then when I autoswing (by holding down mouse then #meditate) it sometimes does the "ghost body" thingy.  No, there is no way to get your stuff back unless you have an admin give it to you.

Gotta love SBC with their 6Mbps tier for 45$
(Yes, on their site it only shows 3Mbps, but it is actually 6Mbps, I would know :)).

That was nice htough, you could go AFK and be secure in the knowledge that by the time someone figured out you were afk, the server crashed and you didn't have to worry about it.

A long time ago, I was upset if the server crashed once a week.  I could spawn stuff, and it would stay there for a long time.

As a point of history:  Our last server clear was on September 27, 2004.  That is 4963 days ago (13.6 years) as of today.

If you're visiting after a long hiatus and have forgotten your password, try emailing me via the support form at http://www.pcrpg.org.

If your character is from after the 2004 clear but appears to have been deleted or reset, chances are it was caught in one of the inactive account purges over the years.  Backups were made before such events, so try the support form.

eViL, you were probably the coolest but most misunderstood person in this community.. maybe the rest will find out how cool of a person you are some day, and don't get too mad at the people who dont understand you.. its their loss in the end.

Even so, we should thank JI for giving us the idea and a (forgive me) working version, however buggy.

Tribes isn't a great platform to mod off of, though.
