Do characters on inactive accounts get wiped?

[paladin1118]

Hello, I played for a about a month or so last year on Project99 and was thinking about returning to play some more recently. I just checked the server though and it seems my character is gone. Do inactive characters get deleted? If so, about how often do you have to log in to not get wiped? Is there any way to recover deleted characters?

Thanks for the help.

i lost the info to my old login account and still cant use the names from my chars

RIP Lavera Shadowolff and Kaxiren!

Is it possible you have it on another account you forgot about?
One way to tell is logging into the EQemulator.com site and checking your LS accounts. If there's more than one...maybe it's there.

Otherwise I'd say it's either a hack or a glitch. If one of the guids/devs are generous (maybe PM Nilbog, he usually replies), they could check what IPs have logged into that account.

Do inactive characters get deleted?

No.

You're either logging into the wrong server, manually deleted your characters, or are just mistaken.

I have the same situation :P anyway to recover lost characters?

Have you updated your spell files?

[Vondra]

Your characters are kept, I've left for well over a year and came back to them still there.

I have two accounts full of characters I wanted to save names with. They are still there, and I created them launch day like 5 years ago.

Really made good use of those name reservations huh?

I claimed a bunch of names and was going to turn around and sell them later. Never got around to it, and now I just don't feel like it.

^
If your spell file is out of date you will get a character select screen that shows no characters.

The screen tells you to update your spells file though. It wouldn't just be an empty character select screen.

I agree with swish, thats pretty lame.

[Stinkum]

Only 16 names? I've got five LS accounts worth.

[iRFNA]

I own every name that begins with "mwworms". Every one.

People are selling characters left and right, and I'm lame for tagging a couple names?

Swish's avatar is clearly trying to lick Dirtnaps junk.

Well, a couple years ago the staff would respond to a name request by checking on the existing char and if it was old and basically unlevelled I think they have given a few out. Dunno if they deleted the original completely or just appended an 'x'. I doubt this applies unless you are looking for a lvl 1 char you had and I get the impression it wasn't done much.
