I would like to suggest that you change the way our characters can be deleted. I can only speak for myself in saying that I find having to wait 7 days to be incredibly frustrating and to be quite honest... beyond ridiculous. I'm not interested in having to wait another week if I want to use the same name.
Is there some sort of significance to making us wait that long? If I know 100% that I want to delete my character, then I should have the option to delete them right then and there, so I can start again.

    People have been requesting this for over 2 years. Yes, we -should- have the option of immediate deletion but we don't... and never will. Their game, their rules.

    This is rather a security thing. They implemented this week of reactivation in case you would get ****. Loosing all your 101 chars would be PAINFUL, so even if people **** you, you have a pass on your bank, a pass on your AH and a pass on your gear. Like that, no one can damage your account. Having no time to wait on a character to be deleted . . .well i would RQ.
    Feel free to PM me for help.

    Some games have gone so far as to require a pin to be chosen during character creation.

    Isn't really that . Is true that they create the game , but , without us , the players . no game will live . There should be a balance bewteen the players majority and the game developers , like in 7 days period for deletion , to assure security(?) , but , in cases like male barbs/venos , they should allow it .

    Honestly, if you're account got ****, you think a seven day grace on your character deletion would help you any? People who's accounts get **** lose so much that most just swear furiously as they delete the files off their computer and go looking for a new game to play.
