All your character data ist stored on the server.
This means you can completely uninstall your game and you player is still stored on server side (somewhere on \"laanx.fragnetics.com\" in a database).

No character data is stored locally, this is also used to prevent cheating... because if the data is stored on each users PC some people get \"bad ideas\" and simply change the file locally (e.g. giving more experience points without playing).

So for all MMORGs character data is stored on the server side.

Be sure to save your login-email/password because otherwise you cannot access you character after reinstalling the game.

If you want to delete one of your characters, I think there is currently only one way: ask ingame a GM to do this (the guys with golden/yellow name label).

There is a wipe of all players scheduled soon, at this time all info on your character will be gone. The notice and reasons for this can be found here:

@Tharizdun: this was already discussed at beginning of january... I think we can play a lot until this happens.

There are still some skilling bugs in the game, for example I receive sword-skill-updates without fighting with a sword. I dont think the character wipe will/should happen before this is fixed.

I don\'t understand where people get this \"GMs can delete characters\" stuff from. NO THEY CANT.

- Added /deletechar GM command. This deletes a character from the database
  as well as any items they have in game.  Cannot delete guild leaders. They
  must resign first.  Usage: /deletechar zombieToDelete requestorChar.  So
  can be something like /deletechar Guest Guest  or /deletechar Guest GuestChar2


From there probably

Ok. But people have been saying this for months and it was driving me insane. Glad we actually do have a way to delete chars now.

Guess its now that all players will act good, or else..
