Hi Blizz, as your long-term customer and fan, could you give us the option to permanently delete characters, or at least modify the current undelete system? I, as a person who sometimes likes to delete a my alts and start exp them once again from nostalgia, miss this option. I think that we, as players who put considerable money into the game, should be available. Thank you in advance and apologize for my bad English.
Deletion is not meant as a cold storage for characters.
This is exactly what op is saying.
Uh, you can just not restore the character if you don’t want to? I am not sure exactly what you are even asking as you can delete the chars and not restore them already.
Im asking about permanently deleting characters. Of course, i can delete them, but they are still in (undelete system). They are still on my account.
People will complain that they didn’t mean to permanently delete them and want them back. Mostly people who ragequit.
The current system is fine.

And I know many of my friends who would also welcome this opportunity. I’m not saying to cancel this system, just asking if it would be possible to add a permanent delete option 
Hello all, nice discussion so far. 
This is definitely something I’ve had some good conversations about with players over the years. It can be hard to just leave the character there and not restore it. And at the same time, it’s a dangerous option to “accidentally” use.
If you’re in favour of something like this, make sure you’re putting in a suggestion through the appropriate channels.
Perhaps adding a 30 day cool off period after you “perma-delete” a character might be something to consider.

No.
When people get their accounts compromised, lets say by a jealous ex. Said jealous ex would “permanently delete” their characters, out of spite which would leave you outta luck.
The current system means the characters are recoverable.
Permanent deletion would also make it easier for “hackers” who steal accounts, to hide their tracks, by selling all your stuff, mailing the gold to one of their own characters, then deleting it, destroying the “paper trail”.
So no. Not a good idea at all.
Hello, thank you for your reply. I will submit the suggestion because I think that many players will welcome it. Thank you
And to Trovlak: In your opinion, the problem is that your jealous ex could erase your characters. How could this ever happen? How can anyone give or leave ex access to your wow account? The option should be here in my opinion, just keep your own login, your account is only your account.
You’re welcome Draonar.
Trovlak makes very valid points. What may appear to be a simple request will undoubtedly have issues when looking at the bigger picture. That’s where sending in the suggestion and getting the conversation going on the proper forum is best.
And to allow that to happen, I’m going to close up this one for now. Thanks very much guys.
