Spacial Distortion Posted October 21, 2008 Report Posted October 21, 2008 I read the sticky about the invalid passwords for user names, and it mentioned that returning user names may have been deleted due to inactivity. My question is how long does it take for a user name to be deleted for inactivity? My apologies in advance if I'm in the wrong forum. Thanks
🜲 Samapico Posted October 21, 2008 Report Posted October 21, 2008 It largely depends on how often the name was used, how long ago it was created, and how much usage it has. No one knows exactly how this is handled and it's probably a pretty complex formula. If you create a name and login once with it for 2 minutes, chances are it will be deleted after 2 or 3 months. If your name has a few thousand hours of usage, chances are it will never be deleted. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/88/Half-Life_Black_Mesa_logo.svg/120px-Half-Life_Black_Mesa_logo.svg.pngDCME co-developerSSCU 17th Parallel sysop

🜲 PoLiX Posted October 22, 2008 Report Posted October 22, 2008 Especially when those who have played far longer then you have less usage, kinda makes your life look that much sadder...
