Tonight’s night cap asks the question: Are you intimidated by threats of account deletion? Owing to how rare it is to find a company that is actually willing to delete characters/accounts these days, you might occasionally find an email in your inbox stating “thank you for playing, but due to inactivity your account/characters will be deleted in 30 days.” Deleting inactive accounts is a smart move when it comes to cleaning databases, clearing up character names, and reducing data storage, but most companies are willing to forego those benefits in favor of a more consumer-friendly attitude, especially since threatening to delete a customer’s data in an MMO where progress is key is more likely to simply ensure that that customer never comes back.
So MMO Fallout asks: Have you ever received an account termination notice? Did this inspire you to sign back up or did you give up on the service completely? If the service is free to play, do you simply log in once to make them happy?
