Character Restauration doesn't work

Post by playramon »

Hi there,

sorry for opening a new topic but its kind of serious for meh
Stopped playin WoW like 1,5 years (i guess) ago and decided to delete all my chars

Ilinai -BE Pala
November - BE Priest
Biglebowski - Tr Shaman
Kitsuné - H Warrior
Poppin - NE Hunt
Pups - G Mage
Peepz - G Lock
Theophilus - G Rog

Now i wanted to come back to join & enjoy the community again, saw the incredible thingi that there is a new possibility to get back old deleted chars, but guess it wont work with my acc.
Cant see or restore any chars at all.
Also saw, that some names - November, Poppin are taken by other Ppl, so would be np to rename them or smt like that.
I always supported SF, so if there is any possibility to get my old chars back, im fine for payin' the price it needs.
if there are any other info's u need, like acc name or old ss, just tell me!

Ty in advance
[Would love to come back without creating some new chars - but if it doesnt work i will come anyway ]

Just to also respond to this: deleted characters are unfortunately not saved forever. It would be a tremendous amount of unused space if we did so. They are only held for 180 days (half a year). Only in November did we roll out the website feature for character restoration, and prior to that deleted characters were only saved for 2 months, so we haven't even hit 6 months on some characters yet since not enough time has passed.

You can read about the feature on the news page, at the bottom: https://www.smolderforge.com/site/home/index/2

As Oldsalt said, send me an email with the information you provided in this post, along with any account name associated, donation codes, etc. and I should be able to find a restore point for them potentially in some of our backups.

Sorry for the delay, I have been quite busy and old account restoration is a pretty low-priority thing since it takes quite a while to investigate and perform manual restores on this data. I apologize for the delay, but I will eventually get around to it.
