2 year 11 month old Mesmer in pre deleted a few months back when I restarted playing GW after a 2+ yr break.

Thought screw it, I need another slot, so deleted her. Didn't realise you could buy extra slots.

ive deleted a few things from putting them on pvp characters..but that isnt going to be the topic of this conversation


back in the day..right around the time nightfall was about to drop..i had an enormous collection of swords/axes..to be exact every sword and axe in the game at the time r8 15^50 excluding crystaline and dwarven axe..also had like 4 r8 15^50 eternal bows..well to get on with the story..i had alot of cash and ecto still since i had been saving up for the last 2 weapons i was missing..around 4 mil if i remember correctly..anyways talk of nightfall and exotic armors got me curious and i decided to buy up all the rubies and saphires i could (i did not buy diamonds..none..this was based entirely on gut instinct)..but after i bought over 600 of each i was content..figured ok all i have to do now is wait..so nightfall came out and they skyrocketed and i was going to make a killing..i was selling them and got tired so i went to bed..got back on the next day and all my characters had been deleted and one character had been made..its name was -u hav ben hckd-..my wife had a few days before wanted to do SOMETHING on myspace and something was stopping her (she blamed this on my firewall) and lowered the settings..not just a little bit..but as low as they would go..the bad thing about it was that the person that hacked me obviously didnt play guild wars..they took everything out of storage and put it on characters and deleted them..they took nothing (or atleast ANET Says nothing was traded in bulk and it could not be traced) but we all know how that goes

but all that said..those of you who know me --know well that i bounced back and have my entire collection back--still missing the crystaline and dwarven (LOL)

hope you guys enjoy the story of my misfortune

Well I didn't deleted my characters but my boyfriend did... >_> stupid idiot he is. lol. He deleted my first character I created when I first started playing Guild Wars which was a Mesmer. She would have turned 36 months old on November. 20th, 2005 at 2:57am. I have thought about deleting her many many times because of her name... (Chasity Run) when I first started out but... I ended up keeping it. I spoiled her with every set of elite armor in game... even FoW of course until... May. 21st, 2008 she was deleted by my bf out of spite. Psfff.. >_<;; So many memories gone... Then he started deleting more and more of my characters... my Ritualist (FoW), Ranger, Paragon, 2nd Ele, 2nd Warrior, 2nd mesmer and my 2nd Monk... Every character had more than... 6 sets of armor... + rare weapons... etc etc etc... >_< ack. I have 20 character slots. 6 are storage characters. I only have 6 lvl 20 pve playable characters left. I remade the 8 gave them all the same name for keeps but, I don't think I will be remaking them anytime soon. Because every time I do... He ends up deleting them. LOL... I just don't see the point anymore. So... for now, they just sit there as lvl 1s. YAY~ xD
Oh... hmmm... The other day I accidentally deleted a storage character that had all my green items on it. >_> -sighs-

:P I know. But oh well... I rarely play on them anyways... I'm always on my monk now these days. >_> Maybe I should deleted one of his for kicks. (He said I could. xD But I ain't that harsh.) :P He did apologize for it and he was willing to help me get FoW again and all. But I think I'll have to pass. -.- Don't really have time to play with the characters atm.

I deleted a PvP character without remembering that I had 100k and a stack of ectos on it, as well as misc. elite PvE armors I had put in my hall of monuments. It didn't really make a dent, but I was still annoyed.

I was salvaging runes of my Obby armor and I was going too quickly.. clicked on the regular salvage kit without noticing. Once I realized what had happened I couldn't stop laughing. Back to the FoW for me...

Oh wow, some of these make me laugh at how small they are and some make me cringe(not really, it's just a game). But when I made my first 1mil(280 ecto or so), I was so excited I wanted to have it on whatever character I went on so I would put in storage and transfer. So, I went on my Mule to sell some old greens I had and after I sold the rest of them, I put the cash in storage and here it comes, I left the ecto in the 4th pouch, where I forgot to check. So, I deleted the mule, which was only lvl3, and ended up losing most of my wealth at the time. I've learned my lesson now and whenever I delete a character, I check him. And I rarely put any items of value on PvP Chars, mainly because I reroll a lot.

He would almost be 3 years old if i'd have kept him. >;[
I did the same thing with a N/Me...wanted a N/Mo for a MM...then later I found out not only could you change professions, but that N/Me could be a MM just fine. On a side note my ranger had 4 sup. runes on her armor. The joys of being noob

Personally, I vanquished almost all of Cantha and then deleted the character for a PvP.

My worst thing is probably making a warrior, rushing him to get elite armor and then deleting him soon after. Not too bad I suppose, but hey money is money.

when buying my obsidian armor I used to doubleclick to buy things from merchants and I ended up buying two chest armors. This was due to a little bit of lag.

I have merched (they were accidently in my backpack and not my second back that I normally have turned off and was clicking 'sell' without looking):
A full stack of ectos
A full stack of shards
2x Voltaic spears

I have deleted:
A monk with 2 sets of full fissure armor and multiple sets of tattoos (this was intentional, because I hated her hair after coming back to playing again -.-)
