I have encountered this 3 times already on a server runing a modified version of monster.
Basically, it completely removes all progresses done through Ars Magicka, requiring to "unlock the secrets of the arcane" once more.
The first two times, it was only slightly annoying, because I only lost 2 and 5 levels, and barely any progress.
This last time however, I was level 20, and had unlocked every blue and green, and was more than half way into the red components.
I gained the points by fighting bosses using blood magic and tinker's construct, and died at the hand of the winter guardian because my regen buff had run out.
Fortunately, the server admin made me an OP so that I can spawn in the orbs and get my levels back, but I am sure it also happened to others (google found me bug repports, and I have no log entries to submit there), and I would like to know if someone found out why it happens, and maybe how to prevent it.
