I my self am a guild leader an i recently lost an officer who i'm fairly certain wouldn't get up an leave with out at least telling me. so i tried to add him to friends under two different character names of his. both gave me a message that said no such character name. i suspect that he might have been banned. is this correct? is there any way i could contact him if hes not banned?

Thx for you help.

Did you guys have a forum? Maybe through there. If not all you can do is wait for him to PM you some how.

I'm not sure if banned characters get deleted, i'm thinking that they don't but.........just an assumption.

Hacked maybe? It would account for why he does not have any chars.

WHERE DO YOU THINK

Well they do not delete your account upon banning so I would asume if his chars are gone but he is still isted under guild roster he was hacked and perhaps had his chars deleted. My best guess

I Dont think Anet has the right to delete an account as the infomantion on said account would belong to you as you paid for it. but then can stop you from using it...

might want to read the EULA again. Anet owns everything and anything on their servers. When we bought the game, we basically just bought the right to be able to use their software and their server.

It's not whether they have the right to. It's that they choose not to. If they delete an account and then end up researching the ban and finding that it was an error, there is probably no reasonable way to undo the deletion.

Could be hacked yeah.
Because, when you're banned, you can still be added to other people's friend lists.

Banned characters do not get removed from guilds nor deleted, and can still be added to f-list. Guess he left and deleted his chars imo.

Look in guild status, where it says ".......... left the guild."

If the name there dont work it means he deleted the char.

Also, besides any forum you guys might have had for the guild, if they were members of this or any other fan forum you can look for them here or there and send a PM.
