A diary/journal for the pre-wipers!
Why do we like our items and levels and money so much? It's the memories, of course. It's only right that we give everyone a place to write them down.
Edit Here's a better effort, dyable too.
Maybe an NPC could give these out for a week after the wipe/rollback/whatever-will-happen.
Coming up... Don's version!

As well as text memories, perhaps a place to store those last screenshots of your multi-millionaire character with their amazing range of attributes, and common, not so common, rare and super-rare items collected over many hours of levelling and horse trading with other characters.
Why not indeed!

Sert was wanting the word Diary to be on the book so I came up with thisSertraline wrote:Why do we like our items and levels and money so much? It's the memories, of course. It's only right that we give everyone a place to write them down.
and a saturated blue version for dyeing:

Very nice but it would only come in that color then?
A book mark why didn't I think of that.

Wow I like the book mark.
Re: A diary/journal for the pre-wipers!
Is this proposition serious about distributing these items, in-game, for the described reason? If you want these items to record screenshots and text, prior to a wipe, how do you expect your characters to retain them after a wipe actually happens? If you really need a place to reminisce, it would seem more appropriate to simply record your nostalgia on a thread, such as this one. (though maybe relocated to the "Player Talk" forum) In general, I have nothing really against the idea of blank books for player use.. it'd just be nice if they had a more functional use.

It's a joke, a token, a consolation prize. The item would be entirely useless.

Aww... But it was such a good idea!
