We kept a list of your char names, so you were and are still able to use your old char name at the new server again. This list will be DELETED at the END of 2005! Furthermore we will delete at the end of 2005 all accounts which weren't used from 07/01/2005 until 12/31/2005 to clean up the database. To avoid this, just login with one of your characters during this time.

Des weiteren werden wir Ende 2005 alle Accounts löschen, die nicht im Zeitraum vom 01.07.2005 bis 31.12.2005 benutzt wurden. Um dies zu vermeiden log mit einem Deiner Chars während dieser Zeit mal ein.

Just in case you forgot about the above news posted some time ago.

Merry Christmas!

If you used your character once this year. It will not be deleted.

Wrong!

He speaks about accounts! If you used or have used one of the characters in your account in the named time period, the account wouldn't be deleted.

Soo....Accounts and characters won't be deleted if they are used? Or will the characters be deleted? I'm confuzzled....

Kevin Lightdot · Post by **Kevin Lightdot** » Mon Dec 26, 2005 11:39 am

I think the chars will be deleted

Farewell my awesome char of uber pwnz0rs!

Exactly. All accounts with all their chars that were not used (=not even one char was played for a minute!) between July and end of the year will be deleted. That means if you logged in in this time once, your account is save. In addition, the "pre-wipe" character database will be deleted. Those are all chars that were played before april, before the wipe and are not recreated yet.

Kevin Lightdot · Post by **Kevin Lightdot** » Mon Dec 26, 2005 12:01 pm

So all chars will be deleted whatever happens?

And i thought Nitram's explanations where confusing...

Post by **Estralis Seborian** » Mon Dec 26, 2005 12:07 pm

You did not play between 07/01/05 and 12/31/05 -> your account will be deleted.

You did play in this time, nothing happens.

You had an account before the wipe -> The information about this will be deleted. Thus, you will have to reapply for a new account and your old char's names are not reserved for you anymore.

Claro?

If that doesn't clear it up: No, Kevin. Your account is safe.

Kevin Lightdot · Post by **Kevin Lightdot** » Mon Dec 26, 2005 12:32 pm

But is my char safe?

I dont understand.

Liles · Post by **Liles** » Mon Dec 26, 2005 12:46 pm

Okay.

This is a basic clean up and if you havn't used an account in 1 year it's going to be deleted.

Easy enouth?

Aegohl · Post by **Aegohl** » Mon Dec 26, 2005 12:46 pm

We weren't going to delete him, but there's been a change of opinion.

Post by **Estralis Seborian** » Mon Dec 26, 2005 12:47 pm

As long as you continue to bribe me, yes.

So our characters ARE safe if we used em at least once during those times given? So if we used em today would they will still be safe?

(And no people, I didn't just start playing yesterday... I just started using te forums yesterday *points to the joined date under his name*)

P.S: I like daggers

And now that the date has passed, I'm going to unsticky this and let it slide down into oblivion.
