I've heard nothing of the sort.

Just log into account administration, add some gametime, and your accounts should be just the way you left them.

The only thing that happens after 90 days is you are eligible for scroll of resurrection. If you have more then 1 account then by all means resurrect away. Get some free playtime.

Except from that Blizzard guarantees you that your characters won't get deleted for 6 months. After that time you have no guarantee for that but until now I didn't hear about even one case where such a thing happened and the characters were gone.
So Vyndree is correct, they should be just the way you left them ... broken-hearted! :P

FOR-EV-VOR.

Consider the cancellation process, if you will, much like a deep sleep—everything on your account ages as normal (mail and auction items retain their expiration dates) and you're welcome to "wake" it up at any time. That is, should a particular subscription be canceled, Epistaxis, neither the characters nor the accounts to which they belong will be deleted. Not in 4 weeks. Not in 4 months. Not in 4 years. :)

COnfirm, have been idle for 18 months, except for loss of all my talents due to TBC, everything was ok.

I quited playing before TBC arrived, hence the free unlearn of talents.

Got 10 days of free playtime from blizz. How nice.

yup. no reason for them to delete the characters, it's a very small amount of data and only in their best interest to keep them in a "coma".

have fun, and don't forget to deep sleep or time travel RP :P
