IMHO if you're reincarnating high-level mortals it's best to just let
them keep the eq. If you code a junk function to the reincarnation,
mortals will quickly learn to stash the eq or give it to a friend shortly
before reincarnating. Sure they'll level faster, but you could look at
that as a bonus for accomplishing all they have.
If you're reincarnating imms who had the chance to get all the eq they
wanted with nohit and goto, well, good luck there :)
