    Return to Vanadiel #2

    http://www.playonline.com/ff11us/campai ... index.html

    Return to Vana'diel with your original character!
    Last year's popular Return Home To Vana'diel Campaign is back.
    This limited-time campaign offers customers who have deleted their characters an opportunity to adventure through Vana'diel once again with their original characters.
    When you purchase a FINAL FANTASY XI Content ID during the campaign period, you can have previously deleted character data restored onto that ID, and resume play immediately!

    With the release of TREASURES OF AHT URHGAN, The world of FINAL FANTASY XI has become more accessible and convenient than ever. Please use this opportunity to return to Vana'diel, and return to adventure!

    * The application process for the Return Home to Vana'diel Campaign will differ according to your current FINAL FANTASY XI service status. Please proceed to the "Type A" or "Type B" page to confirm which you are eligible for.

    Campaign Period
    from 0:00am on April 4(Tues), 2006 to 0:00am
    on May 31 (Wed), 2006.
    Last year if I remember right, they did this just before Server hop. So....

    So "permanantly" deleted characters are actually stored somewhere and deactivated? Either way I thought the limit was 3 (or 6?) months of inactivity and its deleted as well.

    I'd assume you have a 3 month file archive on-site, then you archive all files to storage at another site, harder to get back to them and such. But they can dig through it if necessary. No idea if this is how SE works, just a guess.

    I think what they mean by "more accessible and convenient" is that FFXI will be on Xbox 360.

    we can only imagine the horror that is about to haunt us.

    btw, is it true that some of the people who were banned will be able to come back with Return to Vana'diel, or is that just a rumor?

    I always assumed they never fully deleted anything ever, always had it readily available, and just lied about it to fool players into thinking their character was fully deleted post the 3-month date.

    I'm glad they're doing this again... my friend's account got deleted by his girlfriend several months ago and hopefully he'll be able to get it restored. :O

    On the site itself:

    Applicants will be ineligible for the campaign if any of the following apply:
    - The applicant has cancelled his/her PlayOnline account, but has never purchased a FINAL FANTASY XI Content ID.
    - The applicant had his/her PlayOnline membership revoked due to violations of the "PlayOnline Member Agreement," "FINAL FANTASY XI Software License Agreement," and/or "FINAL FANTASY XI User Agreement."
    - The applicant is eligible to have his/her character reactivated through the Information Center.

    So probably not D:

    so if my friend deleted his char and tried to restore it, got denied and couldn't do it again because that was his "one and only chance", he can now?

    awesome. he's been waiting for this forever.

    Or he could be the guy who just reads the OP, thinking 12 replies could in no way have produced any new information and reply like so.

    Fucking bud just tried this, he deleted his char once, then deleted it again and they wouldn't allow restore, and they still won't even with this program...

    He deleted once becuase he took a break from the game, and a second time becuase you can change your chars name by delete > make char name on new ID > restore, but they said no to him becuase of a double delete.
