I don't know why you would have lost any gold. You get xp back by completing your death quest.

If you log out while dying, you'll be dead when you log back in.

Sometimes, you may log out, crash out, server time out while in combat, only to find yourself dead when logging back in. This just happened to me recently. I was fighting some kittens, crashed, logged back in to find myself bleeding to death in the start tent. Didn't make any sense to me, but apparently even if you're lagging/crashing on your side, the baddies can still kill you. :?

Did you die in the spider caves of elysia last night?

Was it anything like this report:

viewtopic.php?t=40512&highlight=log

This happened to me a few months ago, was very strange but it got sorted out after following peoples advice.

This has happened to me before....twice. Fortunately both times a DM was around for me to explain, and get healed both times.

If anyone could help me notify a staff member of the following message your assistance would be very appriciated!

To any Team member! i've tried e-mailing you but everytime i send an email it returns saying that it failed to send so i've decided to post it.

Char Name: Glorin Narsilowen
Gamespy Name: Imytholen
Board Name: Imytholen

i logged off in the 4a at dwarftrade, there was no one or thing around me when i did it. Then when i logged back on i was in my death quest! i had a friend check if my body was in the 4a and it wasn't!!!

NB: it was not the first time i logged in after the update

You need to make an entry in the bug forum anyway.
