Books reverting to their original state and text.

Been having a problem with some of the books that my characters have been writing in.

Sometimes, most notably after a reboot, I find that pretty much all of my books revert back to their original OOC messages. Now, this wouldn't be too much of a problem, if it wasn't for the fact that even after I try to re-write everything again, the OOC text isn't deleted or removed. This leaves the text in the books a total mess, and means that I have to spend 10 or more coins just to get a new book.

I was wondering if others were having this problem as well, and if so, would there be a strategy on keeping the original text, or an up-coming fix?

I've stopped writing books In-Game after this happened a few times. It has become a real annoyance to find everything I write down being removed and reverted to its original OOC message.

Are you sure it happens after a reset, and not after being sent to negative HP (or any other case that would result in a player's pack being dropped)?

Ah yes. Now that I remember, I think it did revert back to its original OOC text after one of my characters died. I may have noticed it more often after the reboots, since I normally check on each of my items after every reboot (since I've heard cases of people's items changes).

Does this mean that there is no current fix for when a character dies and the books reverting back to their original, unchangeable state? I wish there was someplace to safely store books if that is the case.
