I left for 9 years because of crap like that. Actually left, not moved to another character. I played briefly on an alt but this is the character I like to play. Whenever I made a try at coming back, someone would bring it up again. If I stayed in the forums and didn't log in, people would tell me to quit the forums too. The admin ? Said it wasn't harassment.
Don't worry. @Sarathai is still around. It is not such a solid tradition.
If I decided to leave Artemis would zap me back to Minia just on principle.

I don't regret retiring any characters. But even though they increased the transfer window from 15 to 30 days, it's still not enough time to know whether or not you want to drop a massive investment into an alt. That's where I have regrets.

I'm not trying to tell you how you should feel about that situation, but I think it would have gone away if you had reacted differently to it. Laughing it off and agreeing "yeah that was pretty funny" even if you didn't mean it would've taken half of the fun out of bringing it up in the first place

One of the symptoms of an approaching nervous breakdown is the belief that one's work is terribly important
