How to Restore an Expired Diablo 2 Character

Short and Sweet tutorial.

Your character isnt technically deleted until AFTER someone else uses the same name as you have, at which point yours is deleted, so as long as you have unique names, youre in the green.

Hope this helps a few people out!

This is the problem with this game. if you got a good name your fucked. For example my levle 94 Hdin Named Liberty which is a crazy name is fucking dead, Poliwhirl levle 92 druid is fucking dead, Rebate my fucking smiter is dead, Shmexy My assasin is dead. Atleast my levle 92 blizz sorc Chopard is not (i have no idea why no one took it)

When A ladder character expire he go to non ladder... and when he's expire it's write ''non ladder'' and ''expire''... then you clic and it's not... why? because he just past from ladder to non ladder...

[frotchsrx]

hahaha, wow. being on ladder or non ladder has nothing to do with expirations, lol. you are simply misinformed. an expired character is one that hasnt been played in 90 days, it expires and other players can use his name. this prevents every single name in the game from being used. if another player uses your name, your original cahracter is deleted.

Dear Blizzard,

Expiring characters is just stupid and lame.

Sincerely,

Everyone.

What to do if I click ''Delete Character'' on a char that's ''Expired'' and ''Character cannot be found'', but nothing happens after I've confirmed I want to ''Delete Character'' but nothing happens after I click ''Yes''? ;o

[warriorcomic]

this is why i have clan names got 7 accounts all 56 characters + mules were expired... 1,3 years later i logged in for fun... i found Everything back again. but their non-ladder obviously now.

Hahaha and blizzard claims your account gets deleted in 3 months or 6 what ever..

[blackwlf761]

[blackwlf761]

[MarikHawk]

Damn i hope my chars are still alive...

[airmatt86]

fucking gay ass aids. i lost my 100% perf smiter pally to this 45lifer p combs and all...ALL perf shit and poof. soo gay.

[NightHigher]

Hmm, this was quite fun; All my high levels apart from my 87 sorc "Mortera" was not expired. It was just the sorc that was expired and all my mules were active. At least I still had my poerfect hammerdin and mules to start of somewhere. :)
