Earlier today, the server I was in lost connection, and I lost all of my gear. Naturally I started over, made it to the airfield, left the game, came back made it to the airfield, left the game for a bit and re-connected only to find I was back along the Coast with my original gear. WTF?

As stated in title, me and friends made glorious loot runs, I found an AK-Cobra and tons of more shit. Then the server reset, and I lost everything. Just now, I made a new run, made it to the airfield (it was one hell of a run) and left the game to use the bathroom. I re-connect to find myself back in Chenogorsk with my AK and junk. WTF happened?
