Accidentally deleted one of my 80's

I accidentally deleted my 80 warrior, Frighten, I'm only posting here as I'm unaware as if there is a cut off on which you can restore an accidentally deleted character. If so then I'm glad I posted here, as there seems to be a large amount of petitions in game for various reasons. If there isn't really a cut off then it's alright, and hopefully I have nothing to worry about. Otherwise, I'd like someone from Blizz to take a look at this post and if there is a cut off in time, then perhaps prioritize it in some fashion.

If there's any way I can help speed the character recovery process up, I'd gladly help with what I can.

Also anybody with any knowledgeable feedback about this topic can feel free to post as well.

Any comments are greatly appreciated. :) Thanks.

Though I won't be able to read any posts until tomorrow, bed time for me. :d

** Yes I already submitted an in-game ticket, but fear it may be a while before it actually gets reviewed.

Q u o t e:
I just spoke to a GM in-game, they said both of my characters were restored, though after saying our goodbyes, I logged out after I finished the instance I was in and my characters aren't there, does it take some time for them to re appear? If not I'm kinda worried now lol.


This sometimes happens with restored characters, they are there - but invisible to you.

The usual quick-fix is to make another character on that realm - but it appears your realm list is full - that won't be an option in this case.

I just asked this account be forcibly refreshed on our side....now, sometimes that will work, sometimes that won't for this particular issue.

Could you try logging all the way out to desktop, relaunching wow and checking your character list again?

One other workaround that sometimes works is to create a toon on another realm in your same Battlegroup.

But I'd check the relog first.

Q u o t e:
I decided to kill my 14 priest, Thanks for trying to help, Orlyia I appreciate it, and I also appreciate the time people took to post on this thread, thanks for all your help! :D

(Too bad my 14 priest had to die though, but i got my 80 back WOOT!)


Just submit a petition if you'd like your priest restored. He may have the same condition when he returns, but these will eventually show up on their own.
