Hi

I was Remi Steele, now Botsie Boots...I guess I started all this about how things work...what I was attempting to say is if you start over as a new detective you do start with nothing...basically you still lose everything by starting over...because you have nothing...if you make 3 FA you lose alot of points and cash...(in different categories)...but you still lose almost everything...my confusion was others say starting over is better then reactivating and this is what I dont get...losing everything for starting over vs. losing some things by reactivating...

I think the point of the other detectives was that you don't lose your skills. That, to me, would be worth reinstating your old detective, since skills take so long to obtain and are so valuable.

Remi/Botsie, for you, starting over may have been a better or easier choice. sometimes people do not make wise decisions when purchasing their skills and would be better off starting fresh and being able to choose your skills better.

But for someone who has a couple of million points and near to all the skills, it is much much better to reactivate and keep the skills even while losing money and experience.

You had a small amount of experience, so it really did not hit as hard as someone like Biggie who is over 10 million now. After putting more than a year into your detective, you do not want to have to start all over again from scratch.
