So I decided to head back to Vanguard since it is free for 45 days. I have not had an active account in about 6 months. All of my characters are gone. Did this happen to anyone else? Did they do a server wipe of inactive accounts?
I put in a ticket, but I am sure it will not get looked at till Monday at the earliest. I am bit annoyed to say the least. I was really looking forward to playing a few hours each day this weekend.
Any information would be greatley appreciated.
“It's unwise to pay too much, but it's worse to pay too little. When you pay too much, you lose a little money - that's all. When you pay too little, you sometimes lose everything, because the thing you bought was incapable of doing the thing it was bought to do. The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot - it can't be done. If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to add something for the risk you run, and if you do that you will have enough to pay for something better.”

I had characters on 2 accounts from bascially release time and all characters were present. No one in game mentioned this at all although most of us are starting small to experience to lower content again ( or in most cases the areas we have not seen yet )
I also fired up Vanguard a couple of days ago to check it out and spend my 45 free days. I have not played Vanguard since 2009 and all my 9 characters are present.
did you know SOE recently announced devs being put on Vanguard? Can you say CASH SHOP INC! lol
I guess I am just lucky. I hope they are able to recover the characters. None of them were over 25 but I had about 6 between 10 and 25 and they all had the flyign mounts from the x-mass event. I really do not want to do the starter area a bunch of times again.

Not sure if this applies, but just make sure you are still using the same account as you did before. I know a few people (myself included) who created multiple accounts along the way and get mixed up about which one was the original. I've never heard of them deleting characters on old accounts, but then again I'm pretty sure they don't guarantee that your characters will still there if you leave.
umm did none of you realize that with in the past 6 months to a year that SOE merged all the servers down to 1? the reason you all dont have your characters is that when sony did that they gave you a limited time frame to claim your characters or lose them forever.
"Possibly we humans can exist without actually having to fight. But many of us have chosen to fight. For what reason? To protect something? Protect what? Ourselves? The future? If we kill people to protect ourselves and this future, then what sort of future is it, and what will we have become? There is no future for those who have died. And what of those who did the killing? Is happiness to be found in a future that is grasped with blood stained hands? Is that the truth?"
Hardly.
There has been a cash shop in Vanguard since beginning of 2009.
Post proof or this is blatant misinformation. I never heard of any such thing and I spoke with MANY people who returned to the game.
I too returned to my account that I last played 2009 and all my characters have still been there.
No their are two servers not 1 server left in Vanguard. And just to put your other claim to bed SOE did not say you would lose your toons. All that happened was you found yourself on another server and a name reset if someone already had that name on the server.SOE do not delete characters from accounts period.
