I was playing my RAmar the other day, just like any other. I stepped into the teleporter to head back to Ruins 2. Just as I was coming out of the TP *insert vwoosh sound* my DC magically reset by itself. Because the game automatically accesses/saves the character data when you enter an area, it happened to be in the middle of this process when my DC reset. Thanks to this, my character's save data was incomplete and therefore corrupted. I lost a lot of items, including my only Hero/Ability, a Spread Needle, and loads of weapons and armor (all of which I legitimately found).

Am I upset? Yeah. It didn't make me happy. Will I crumble and turn to the dark side of hacking a bunch of items to replace what I lost? Naw. I came to realize something. They're just items and it's just a game. They're not really what matters. Sure over time playing the game (what, you'd think a little thing like this would make me quit?) I'll find replacements for what I lost (three times over http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/icon_smile.gif). Just as long as I have pals to play with, I don't really care what happens to my characters and items. I play to socialize and have fun. The items are just a perk.

However, I'm curious to know if anyone else has been struck by this strange phenomenon that is a DC resetting by itself. If you have, please post in detail.

This has happened to me just once, although I never lost my character to it, I did lose a couple of petty items. I don't really know why this happens, but since it's only happened once, I'm really grateful, lol!

Yes it was actually quite a big coincidence(dont think thats spelled right). Well i was in caves one and i was about to get off and im in a room and i kill a Evil Shark, and he drops a BOOK OF KATANA3. And im like YES! Then *reset* and i was about to throw my DC out the window.

I wouldn't care if i lost all my characters, I would then have the urge to make new ones and reach lvl 100 again. Plus the rare items really suck anyway, they are all just for looks.
