Log your low lvl toons now!!!

**Cyreidan** · Dec 15th, 2009, 01:33:22

Junfanlee: well im want ask to Means, so i need log now 2 accounts lvl1 bank toons to safe them in future?
Means: Make sure you log in your bots and bank toons...yes

And copy paste in Neutnet by Chrisax:
VERY IMPORTANT INFO from Means (FC): ALL BOTS characters and MULES should be logged on for a moment in the next days to PREVENT them from BEING DELETED, as characters not logged on for a while will be deleted to make room for names from RK3 that will join RK2 and RK1.

maybe tell us where exactly means said that? cuz as it is now, it seems just a rumour to me.

He was in the Grind talking to us :P

Wanted people to spread the info, its not fake. But dont do it, lose your bots I dont care

**Toasting** · Dec 15th, 2009, 06:29:06

i would really like seeing a representative from FC confirming this and announcing it to everyone, since many ppl have banks.

OR, in case its just a rumor, id really like them to come and say 'no this is a false rumor'

**McKnuckleSamwich** · Dec 15th, 2009, 06:40:40

I'd really like some 240+ supples plx.

**Marlark** · Dec 15th, 2009, 08:58:26

I can confirm that it is like the topic writer states sins i was in the grind myself and had some of the convo with Colin, chrisax, dark and a bunch of others was there also .. we got a litle feedback to log on lowbie toons that havent been logged ingame for a while especualy bot toons sins they are never logged on more then on the chat server.

And yes means is possible to be bribed with cookies. I know that

OK, the first message was posted before I could post myself. There is no need to panic or anything; all is cool.

The purpose of this post is simply to inform the community a bit ahead of time, in the case someone misses the announcements when they are released.

You can just wait for the public announcement.

Explanations:

Last night, Means was on RK2 in The Grind and had a chat with some of us about several things. I can't say how cool this is! Thanks Means.
All this is therefore official but there will be of course a public anouncement. No need to rush or panic or start "WTHIZDATOMG" posts.
During this chat, Means mentioned that RK3 people will have the choice to join either RK1 or RK2 when RK3 shuts down.
As this will cause possible name conflicts, as already mentioned, FC will proceed to an operation we already saw and there is nothing extraordinary or dangerous: deleting some UNUSED and LOW characters to "make room"
I then asked Means if we should log on BOTS and MULES (banks) to be sure they wouldn't be deleted. (As we did last time, nothing new!). Means replied that, yes, it would be a good idea.
I told Means that I would kindly pass the word around before the official announcement, better safe than sorry: as not everyone reads announcements (and that's bad ). And I informed many org leaders (some of them came to The Grind to meet Means at that time) and I sent a "Neutnet" (info bot on RK2).
So, as you can see, there is no issue, no reason to rush, and no reason to rant or vent.

The characters that could be deleted will likely fulfill the following combination (details will have to be confirmed):

. They are lowbies (likely level 10 and less)
+ not logged for a while (not determined yet)
+ free accounts only (most likely - this is a supposition I make, we didn't ask Means about this)

The date for the deletion is not known yet and will be announced.

So BOTS and MULES could be deleted if you are not careful.

The best way (IMHO - not an official statement) to do in order to prevent deletion is:

- Log them on (not only on AORC; they must be in the game)
- Go to a Save terminal and save them so the game "knows" for sure that you have been online

thanks for posting - will spread the word

**dustmouse** · Dec 16th, 2009, 02:25:04

Wouldn't be an idea to just rename rather than delete?

That way, they could go higher as well, say, to lvl20 or even 25, without hurting anyone. In my experience, a lot of people get past lvl10. So the only criterion would be time since last logon.

If you're lucky, you can even re-rename your toon if no-one has taken the name meanwhile.

FC did this when they closed down AoC servers. Made me laugh to get a promo email, "Hey, reactivate your character bob2586750941375305897 now for free..."

Seems like a bad idea to create all this confusion and doubt BEFORE the official announcement. Spreading the word to people who don't read the forums every day is well and good, but why not wait until you have an official announcement to link to?
