Their items stay on the ground for 30 minutes and will disappear forever once the timer is up. The loot is never shown to anyone else.

It's done this way because of the DDoS'ing issues.

What happened to Ice's transcript thread? I just now noticed it's not there anymore.
He did not have enough time during the week to update the questions anymore, so he requested to have his thread locked. He did mention he may return to it at a later date if possible.

Thank you for the reply. Will it ever go back to normal? And what normally happened when you'd die before the ddos issue?
Items showed up instantly for everyone to see and they stayed on the ground for 2 minutes before disappearing.

We'll probably never see that system again. Cheaters will just start DDoS'ing again so they can farm anyone who participates in dangerous activities.

It's not a problem that's easily solved so it'll always be around, unless some sort of miracle happens, but I wouldn't hold my breath.
