What happens to stuff and SP when I quit and rejoin?

[Ilavatar]

I'm moving abroad for an extended period so I'll be quitting the game. But when I return to a country with decent internet connectivity, I'll be joining again. I'll want to pick up my old characters and guild where I left off. What happens to the following when I do this? -What happens to my personal Status Points - do they poof? -What about the SPs that were contributed to the guild? Does the guild lose them? If I rejoin the guild, do I/we get them back? -What about the furniture in my room? -What happens to my horse? -Bank items? -Are my Heritage Quests and other things still at the level that I left off? Is there a recommended way to shut everything down so that it's there when I return? Thanks, Ilavatar

Personal status points stay on your character. Are you planning to disband from your guild before you leave? That is the only way you will lose your guild status points. Otherwise if you remain in your guild, your guild status points will remain. When you return to the game you'll just have to pay rent to get to your furniture again. Horse, bank items, inventory, Heritage quests and everything will be fine. SoE never guarantees that your character will remain if you quit the game (probably just to protect them) - however I've known several people that have taken extended leave of absences (sometimes even over a year), with no problem whatsoever. P.S. ~ Can I borrow your stuff? <img src="/smilies/69934afc394145350659cd7add244ca9.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

Thanks for the replies! So even if I quit the game, I keep my guild points if they don't boot me? Also, if I'm gone for a year, won't my back rent be exorbid..., exhorb..., really high? Ilavatar

its not like you are charged back rent you only pay what it cost for 1 upkeep.

<p>If you leave the guild the guild doesn't lose the status points you've contributed and you don't lose any personal status points. What you do lose, however, is that the <i>displayed</i> guild status contribution resets to zero if you rejoin.</p><p>If the guild knows you're returning there is no real reason to kick you, except to keep the roster "clean", since status point contribution is a fixed number (1/10) and not based on the number of accounts.</p>
