sure, happened to me once before - lvl 1** (definately over 100) joined game (it was a bot or something i'm pretty sure) and corrupted my save file within a minute - ie. making the character unusable once i exited the game. In chat after i was a lvl 0 if i recall correctly, couldn't join games or host games as if i was thrown behind a firewall and then when i tried to access the character again, in the character selection screen it would bring up the "select your class for new character" screen. Save was stuffed.
It's a very rare thing to happen though i think and it did happen to me over a year ago, when i might add, i had absolutely no firewall protection for my computer, so i wouldn't be too worried about it - plus you can always back your save file up in case that happens. Don't abuse this though - if you can't get your gear back from monsters - then your gear is gone - or else you're not legit and shouldn't be posting here, IMO.
Hureg.
