As it's always TKO who are after a quick buck. The majority want to see longevity and an event without being flooded with items. Perhaps if you didn't sell up your items you'd have things to come back to? But no, with no job, that was all too tempting?
New players? lol. Old players coming back will have friends willing to help them out. Look at Adrian, looked after your character and kitted it up nicely for you when you came back. How did you and your good brother thank him? Changing pass and stealing it all, good one!
I'm happy for people to catch up when the effort is put in, flooding items isn't a great way to do this.
