Sometimes it depends on the time of day but you can wait for hours even for a player to post any info on here. IRC tho sometimes you can help right away. I remember when i was training poisoning on azi's island, (yeah i know dumb move,) but i failed healing a cpl of times and died and was stuck. I paged but there was no staff on at the time, and i went into IRC and Regiss was there and he happened to have a rune there and came and rezzed. It was cool cuz I would have lost like 300 lesser poison pots if my corpse would have decayed and then i would have to mix them again. Regiss owns!!!!!
