Title: Clearing of the game.
Post by: Choren on January 17, 2006, 05:53:15 pm

I know every so offten that you clear all of the accounts.

My idea is that you make backups of the accounts when you next clear the game of all accounts.

Check each account for sepas activy.  Then when they are checked reload them.

Right now it will be easy to do so, for there is not that many people playing.

There is no \"clearing of accounts,\" but there are wipes, as it so happens in every developing game, that are needed to clear up exploiters, adjust balancing issues, etc. They are not scheduled, but done \"as needed\" - and when needed only. If there is a way to avoid a wipe, the development team will avoid it. Inactive accounts are not removed, unless an individual fails to recreate his or her account after a wipe.

Backups of accounts would only save your character name - nothing else, since both inventory and skills/stats will be removed at some point.

Title: Sorry I did not now what it was called

I called it claning instead of wipe by actioned.  I could could not rember what it was called, but new what it did.

It would be a good idea to save the names though.  Makes it easyer to keep the same name.

I think what he\'s trying to say is: It keeps people from jacking your name/identity ingame, they could make \"Mitaki\" before I do, and go ingame and make him act like a total goober. =P

I actually have no idea how possible it is to wipe everything but the character him or herself.

However, do remember that at some point you will have to recreate your character again - for example upon enough changes of the character creation process, new skins, and more additions.

But you still should reserve the name for a while, at least for those who request it. My buddy had his name jacked for a while, it sucked. I dont mind recreating my character, as long as I know my name would be safe.

No no, names aren\'t reserved like that :P There was (and will be?) a migration script, so you\'ll have to sign up and do it all yourself. The forums are useless for something like this.
