I was wondering if when the event stops, and i DONT delete my paragon, will it be reactivated when Nightfall is live? I really hope so since i beat the little island, i for a 15>50 20/20 scythe and i am almost a commander

Thanx for the help

You'll keep your character, but everything on him will be reset. Level, inventory, armour, the lot.

At the end of the event, all Nightfall characters that players have created and all Nightfall items they've acquired will be removed from participating accounts, and the Nightfall content will be removed from the live servers.
That's from the official GW site page about the event. I don't understand why people keep saying that they will be kept and simply reset, since that's clearly not what's been stated by Anet. It says they will be removed.

I distinctly remember that during the Factions preview event, Anet went out of its way to clarify that any characters we created during the event would be available at release - they haven't done that this time.

Edit: If there's been an official post somewhere saying that they'll simply be "reset to zero" then please post a link.

During this preview event, any new characters you create in the nation of Elona are temporary and will be reset prior to the release of Guild Wars Nightfall. These beta characters cannot travel outside of Elona, cannot access account storage, and cannot sell items to traders.

What you quoted was refering to the limited event accounts; not active game accounts.
I keep telling people not to be so harsh when they post as there's always the chance that they're wrong; but they never learn.....

That's the pot calling the kettle black if I've ever heard it.

I asked for a link, and got one. Thanks.

Thats a bit condescending for a statement about being to harsh.

And how do you figure that it's only refering to the "limited event" accounts?
I don't see it, as the paragraph in question is in a section titled "Campaign Overview." If they do reset ALL of the characters created for the preview, you're going to look pretty silly come Monday.
