I joined a Multiplay.com server my friend was on. I removed my field backpack and hid it in some trees while I did a quick survey of the Berzino docks. The server was laggy, so I ran back to my field backpack, equipped it, and dashed for the church to log out. I waited the full fifteen seconds. I then connected to a GameServers.com server with a much lower population. I was not forced to wait the 90 second timeout. I was immediately placed in the game, but not where I had logged out and without my field backpack. I immediately exited, waited the fifteen seconds, and attempted to reconnect to the Multiplay.com server. I encountered repeated database errors, including a database timeout error. My friend on the server said that it kept stating I was being kicked from the server. When it finally did let me back in, I was again in a different location from where I logged out and again without my field backpack. I ran to the place I had stashed it previously and it was gone.
