Yep. You can get back your deleted characters again!  

This limited-time campaign offers customers who have deleted their characters an opportunity to adventure through Vana'diel once again with their original characters. When you purchase a FINAL FANTASY XI Content ID during the campaign period, you can have previously deleted character data restored onto that ID, and resume play immediately!

Something else that's great (at least I hope it works out this way) is that I took a month off from FFXI.  Just so happens, it was the month that the anniversary rings were being given out.  Now, I can partake in this wonderful wonderful ring.  I could kick myself in the ass now because of 12 months, i take the 1 off that winds up being the worse month ever to take off.

This is a great move by SE and I cant wait to see the servers over populated once again.

What do i need to use this service ?

Do i need to buy all new game CDs ?

Or can i just use my old CDKEYs and just purchase a new content id ?

And why the hell does playonline make it so damn confusing !! :P
Thanks Guys

Im very excited about getting my char back, who quit 3/4 through his first chocobo quest :P

I would think you only need to reactivate your content ID's.  If you dont have all your CD's then yeah, you might have to buy them if you are to install again.  That i'm not sure about.  And yes, SE has the most bizarre and clumsy interface when it comes to this stuff.  I cant begin to recall (thanks to the meds) the trouble I went through trying to figure the crap out when I first started.  So yeah, i hope that helps or at least shines some light on the subject.

Argg, i cant find the game manual with the CID in it

Do you think i might be able to call POL and ask them nicely for it ? :P

Or should i just take the next 3 days to tear my house apart looking for it ?

Thanksn again

Hmmm, i'm not quite sure how FFXI does it as i've never done it but I dont think you need the serials for it as you have already registered them to an account.  I think you'd only need the disks to install and then just log in.  I know with most games once you have created the account and associated serials with it, then you don't have to do it again.  So, just find the CD's
