Voluntary deletion?
I was wondering if it was possible to delete a character without having to wait for the inactive deletion.
Re: Voluntary deletion?
It is particularly annoying when characters who have been scheduled to delete !NOW! survive multiple reboots.
Politicians are wise and benevolent and will gladly sacrifice themselves for the common good. Anyone who implies that there might exist dishonest politicians is obviously a terrorist who should be locked up indefinitely without a trial.
Re: Voluntary deletion?
My experience is mostly in LPMuds, but there it was a simple 'rm <filename>' from an administrator. I am only recently returning to MUDing after a decade in graphic games, but I vaguely recall that Diku's store players differently (I never coded on a Diku). Perhaps one of the Valar can help.
All extremists should be shot.
Re: Voluntary deletion?
I've asked to have characters of mine deleted a few times. From memory, the Valar never actually delete the characters, they just rename them. I think they are able to rename a character and even disassociated the character from its account, but not delete it. (So if I wanted "Dianos" to be deleted, he may be renamed to "DianosIsDeleted" and moved into an account that I can't see.)
I'd like to be able to delete characters myself, and I'm not really sure why it isn't an option.

Re: Voluntary deletion?
There are good reasons why we don't allow speedy deletions.
There have been discussions about allowing a speedy delete. Where speedy means a couple of weeks.
- Drunk people
- People playing "friends" account
- Hacked accounts

How to delete your character in a couple of weeks:
Hit LOTS of guards.
Wait until you are "of sound mind"
repeat until level one.
How about 3-5 days?
