Would you still play if you had to start over?

In their struggle to save their game from sunset in November, City of Heroes fans are faced with a dilemma: What if their heroic measures work but only halfway? What if they manage to save the game but not the team and the game stays on life support? Or what if they save the game and the team but not the servers and everything on them -- would people still play?

That exact situation has already hit Ryzom players, whose servers are set to be wiped and consolidated in an effort to keep the game online. So suppose your favorite game lost all of its data for some reason. Your characters are gone, with no hope of retrieval. No levels. No currency. No twinking gear. No achievements. No vet rewards. No guilds. No resources. All of it, gone.

Would you start over? If not, would you take it as a sign to play another game? And if so, what would you do differently the second time around?

depends really if i really enjoyed the game

Same with what marshy said

I don't think i could bring myself to replay everything i had already done lol. However, I have replayed a few games because i really enjoyed them so maybe i could be swayed if the game was really that awesome and also if there was something new for me to do second time round, like a different class or race.
