Great idea D. I would love to see it added. Could you also add containers to limited items so they would get stripped? Right now you can hoard them with minimal game time. Thank you.

Jesus, P50 . . . You just have to hop on your moral high horse in a conversation that has nothing to do with anything but a game and sneer down your nose at people you don't have a clue about to make yourself feel better about . . . well, nothing. Do you ever get bored being a complete arrogant jerk? Nobody cares.

OH, OH PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY! I OBJECT! MY RELIGION! :roll:

(Hey, that's sarcasm, P. I know you're often inept at detecting it.)

Although I would say that the delete command should be available until your character turns journeyman.

Seconded on both of these.

I like it! But why not just strip them naked and give them newbie gear if they decide to keep the character, as a little slap in the face for rage deleting?

I agree with:

Dulrik wrote:

Retiring would do most of the same things to your character that extreme in-activity already does during the monthly update. You'd immediately lose paragon and/or high follower. You would be removed from any tribunal or cabal membership (and leadership). You would be de-looted of all limited items and stripped of cash. You would then be put into retired status and logged out. But you would not be deleted.

Pushing40 from the other side wrote:

You cannot access your character for 48 hours. If, at the end of those 48 hours, you decided to delete your character, you may log in and permanently delete it, or wait another 72 hours and it will be deleted from storage.

I do not agree with:

Deletion would only occur after several months of inactivity the same as it does now.

All in all, though, I think the idea of retirement to prevent rage deletion is nifty.

I think it's a great idea, except that I think characters should be completely stripped of everything and I think it should be available until level 20 or maybe even 25. Some people are power levelers especially in those early levels and they're probably just testing new characters and skills out and not wanting to commit - I wouldn't waste server space on these sort of characters.

I think MsPooperTrooper pretty well summed it up. I like this idea with those particular changes or something along those lines.

And this "you're not supposed to reuse nobody names" business, did you pull that out yer arse? Or do you have documentation for that nonsense?

Dulrik has said on more than one occasion that you are not allowed to re-create characters with the same name.

Given how little damage (none?) is done to the game by recreating early-stage characters, I doubt they enforce the rule much at that stage, but it is a rule nonetheless. So I do not understand the logic you're using to argue against this idea, which seems to amount to "it would stop me from doing something that's against the rules."

Perhaps -

Retire should not work as a command at all unless you are (or were) a leader/member/Oathbreaker.
Characters that have not been at all committed to an organization should be able to delete as normal.

No, this would be very helpful to those how attempt rage delete and then regret it. Gives them a second chance to think about their choice. I would agree that delete should be available through Vet. I have made several chars that I would create and delete trying to find the one that I like but that usually doesn't happen till jman-vet.
