Account question - Erollisi Marr

WHen someone cancels their account, aside from their reason for exsistance ending, what happens to the characters?

Do they get destroyed forever and ever?
Or
would it be possible to drop an account for a few months (stop paying for it) and then start paying for it again a few months later and find everything intact?

just curious

The official policy is that they will keep your account for 6 months and if at anytime during that time you reinstate it you will have everything intact. I have done it a few times myself.

But as far as I know they have never deleted an account, I have heard many stories about people that have reinstated their accounts up to a year after cancelation, and the stuff was still all there.

Yeah, Verant originally stated that if you cancelled your account your characters would be saved for 6 months. However, not too long back they made a statement about not deleting any characters, at all, ever. If you know you're not gonna be playing for a month or more, cancelling and then re-subscribing is hassle-free and saves a lil bit of cash :P

It's actually guaranteed for 3 months <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/embarassed.gif ALT="

"> But the only char purge they've ever done was just over a year ago and that was level 1 chars that hadn't been played in 30 days.

Aye. I cancelled my account in Nov 1999, and reactivated it 2 months ago - everything was still there.
