Lost a druid on my account

You can see your character transfer history if you log into account management on the web. It shows the account name and realm destination of any transfers you made off that account. Go in and check your accounts.

Go to the account management for you accounts and look through the log of transfers.
When I go to do a transfer it shows a log of other transfers so you could see if it was transferred anywhere.

I do know that a guildie of mine got a character reinstated a long time after deleting it, so it may be worth a shot.

Thanks, I'll check this out when this function is available. Seems to always go down when servers are under maintenance.

You should be able to check your account and look up your transfer history for the details. I've had so many rafs and accounts, I accidentally transferred a toon to an account that I closed already.

characters are never deleted... only hidden.

I didn't know that! What a huge relief.

I've had a deleted toon restored well past the 6 month mark. I had deleted my NE priest after I found out she'd never get fear ward and rolled a Draenei priest instead. After Blizzard nerfed FW and gave it to everyone I decided to have my original priest ressurrected. It took a while during restoration because I had reused the name and so once the GM worked it out and restored the toon I was able to change the name next time I logged it in.

OMG I found him!!!! I forgot how many accounts I had and have no idea why I moved it to this one dormant account. Thanks for the tip to check the transaction page! Wow, this is awesome!

Good to hear Blas3r!

Grats on finding your toon but I figured I'd add a note on deleted toons here directly from Blizzard (http://us.blizzard.com/support/artic...delete+account):

deleted characters on an account will be permanently removed from our databases and become unrecoverable after a certain length of time, depending on their level:

1-30: Deleted after two months.
31-49: Deleted after four months.
50 and above: Never deleted.

As for cancelled accounts from the same link:

Blizzard's current policy is never to delete active characters of inactive accounts. If you reactivate your account at any point in the future, your characters will be ready to play. If this policy changes at any point in the future, it will be announced on www.worldofwarcraft.com.

You would be shocked at what Blizzard archives, they know everything.

One day they plan on parsing gchat, to sell market research data. j/k, or am I????

Glad to hear you found your toon.
