Jdezo Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 Ugh accidentally deleted a 50 toon when meant to delete another.....any possibility of it being restored? Yes I have posted this in numerous places to include ingame tickets and such...just want to be heard and hopefully get this toon restored....if it helps im a sub :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elysith Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 (edited) I hope you will get your character restored. The game should ask to type the name of the character to be deleted as confirmation, instead of asking to simply type DELETE. Because just typing DELETE does not help much to realize that you've chosen the wrong character to be deleted.

Jandi Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 They do restore characters. Just send an in-game ticket. I deleted one 50 back in june to make room and got it back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

logankeepes Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 I've done something similar but it wasn't a 50. just type /bug in game and then put in the ticket and just explain that you didnt' mean to delete that character, and it'll get restored.

Rankyn Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 They can't help you on the forum no matter how much you post it. Just file an in-game ticket (not /bug) and explain the situation. It may take a few days but you can get your character back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jdezo Posted November 19, 2012 Author Share Posted November 19, 2012 actually so far the devs have contacted me more on forums then ingame....ingame has no response as of yet and tickets been up since 11/17/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MediumD Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 I've had a request for a restore since 11/16 (#6823260). I heard another guy has had a request outstanding for 5 days so far. Just make your ticket and wait, I guess. Put the word "Scooby" somewhere in it, so that CS can catch your request on a word search. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I have posted this in numerous places to include ingame tickets and such...just want to be heard and hopefully get this toon restored....if it helps im a sub :-)My wife did the same thing a few months ago and CS had her toon back in less than a week. With this being right after a major patch it may take a bit longer but they have done it. On a similar note, they REALLY need to move the "Delete" button away from the "Play" button ... a LONG ways away. It's too easy to accidentially click it. Though at least now you have to physically type the word DELETE into the field instead of merely click a "Confirm" button to confirm.

Jdezo Posted November 19, 2012 Author Share Posted November 19, 2012 tru they should change it to name of toon instead of the word delete i thought i was looking at a different toon....had 2 toons that looked similiar...was having an off day so to speak that day so wasnt all there lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's WAY too easy to think you're deleting a different character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MediumD Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 There's an idea. Put in a recycle bin that lets people undelete characters. That'd eliminate most of these requests. It's sort of a "lock-your-keys-in-the-car" thing where you immediately know you've made a mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's sort of a "lock-your-keys-in-the-car" thing where you immediately know you've made a mistake. I like it. Make it a 24 hour window to go back on the delete (that way there aren't a lot of player names saved in the "recycle bin", and they don't stay there very long.) -Macheath.
