Dex-2 rings in alchemy, and exp loss reinstated? Light angel head? What's going on?

[Locke_boy]

Mike has five dex-2 rings, none of which he'll sell me (I use them for buffing), because he uses them in alchemy. To make what? He wont' tell me. What kind of recipe calls for a dex-2 ring?

.. also, he lost 500,000 xp from .. something. Others have lost xp as well, and they did not switch gods. What's going on?

Oh, and my last question .. is it possible to retrieve items from an account whose time has expired? A friend of mine was going to give me some of my things back, but her account ran out before she could ..

Oh, and someone told me that about a month ago or so he bought a "Light angel head" (yes, the head of an angel) from someone. It had no gfx .. but .. uh .. what the? Where did it come from? What is going on here?!
