Sorry, confused... making your character permanent? What does that mean?

If you buy credits, you can't suicide your character. Well, I think you can, but you've got to go through all sorts of hoops and so on so you can't accidently do it or do it in a fit of passion or whatever. Oh, and if you leave for a long time, your character won't be deleted if you have bought credits.

Suicide? Like attack yourself or delete yourself?

The command SUICIDE lets you delete your character. It doesn't work if you buy credits.

Yeah, I think you have email someone, like support or something - not sure exactly, if you really want to delete your character after having bought credits. Cause of financial transaction records or something like that.

Something like that, yeah.

It's because Estarra loves each and every one of her customers, so much that she never wants them to go away. Well, the ones that pay real money, anyway

I think part of the definition of customer is that they've paid for something.

Well, I mostly try to get them ingame, but that just takes so long! Plus the only village honors quest I've completed is Dairuchi, which isn't exactly time-efficient, especially compared with, say, astral bashing. But I do all right anyways.

I definitely do buy with real money, though, on certain occasions. These occasions being credit sales.

Speaking of credit sales....-nudge Estarra-.

As well as the anti-suicide measures, it means that your character won't be deleted if you go inactive.

Done! Well worth the money spent. Now I can sleep at night without waking up in a cold sweat, having to login and make sure everything's still there.
