; X character has been inactive for an extended period of time. Can it be deleted so that I can claim the name? |
|||
: In short, no. Every couple of years, we do delete characters and accounts, that meet ''all'' of these requirements: |
|||
<blockquote> |
|||
* inactive for more than one year |
|||
* level 0 |
|||
* less than 10 minutes online |
|||
* have not visited more than 2 zones |
|||
* do not own any items beside the default ones |
|||
* have not been friended or ignored by anyone |
|||
* there are no other remaining characters on the same account or accounts that might be related |
|||
* not related to any kind of admin investigation |
|||
</blockquote> |
|||
: A good rule of thumb is, if the character name is not available, then the account has not met the above criteria and requests for deletion will be denied. |
