Default I hope your corpse rots! ;)

Maybe I am crazy but are player corpse rot timers broken when set to leave corpse?

I mean they just don't rot.

We have 505 players corpses server wide right now and counting, all the way back to the 26th of October (the last time I cleaned out the table).

The timer resets when the zone shuts down.

Gernblan, do you make your players retreive their corpses after death, or leave naked corpses? I know you can turn off corpses altogether, but that might not be what you need for your server rules.

My server has no death penalty.. we try to leave corpses so that in a raid they can res people back that die... but beyond that corpses have no other use to us.

In that case, could you just put your "rot timer" to something horribly low, since if a raid wipes and does not rez and get back to business within, say, 30 mins, the corpses poof? I understand it's just a maintenance issue for you. When I took the Abyss DB, I was shocked how many dead bodies were lying around, too.

Yeah it may come down to that, thanks for the great suggestions!
