Does anyone know if they save your characters if you don't pay for a year then renew your account or does it just get deleted?

I think your account is suspended, and your characters are kept. I think after 2 months your account will be deleted, unless you specify to the Blizzard staff otherwise.

/plays WoW while I wait for the Steam update to take place.

Ah crap. I guess that means I don't have anything to show for all the time I put into my characters...

Although I don't regret it, because I thoroughly enjoyed the game when I played it.

No, they should still be there, I had an account from over a year ago and finally put a full CD key and my chars from the trial were still there. They don't remove the accounts so far as I know seeing as this is paid and not free like b.net.

My 43 Shaman is "Throng". But I haven't played with that char since before summer.

My only current is now 24, a mage called "Glitter" on Kel'Thuzad.

Oh, and if you want to make the game amazingly serene and quite fun, just leave general chat channel. The game becomes perfect then.

Man... I can't decide if I am happy or sad that the WOW bug hasn't bit me. I have a character 'Corn' on Kilrog server. I'm a level 10 Tauren Hunter. I've really enjoyed the game sofar, but for some reason, I just can't sit there and put the time into leveling my character. There's just too many things I want to do with my time when I'm not working, and too much of WOW actually feels like work to me: kill 50 plain riders, kill 20 wolves, find some eagle talons for so and so... I just get tired of it and unplug before I make any real progress.

I do love Blizzard though =D

@ Gorbachev: Cool, that's good to know. I don't know when I'll ever have the free time to play WoW again, but its good to know that my characters will probably still be there.

@ Finger: Maybe try playing a different race? I found the Tauren race and environment to be the most boring.

I'd say give an undead character a shot. Designing the way an undead character looks is the most fun, and the backstory behind the missions is more entertaining than those in the Tauren starting areas ( in my opinion ).

I know what you mean when you say WoW feels like work. But, ironically, once you start getting into professions (like skinning and leatherworking for a hunter) and creating your own armor and items it gets to be pretty fun. Getting involved with parties / strict roleplaying can spice it up a bit too.

Additionally, I'm just the kind of person who likes looking for items and improving the appearance of my character, so the first 20 levels are a blast, because you're almost constantly finding new stuff to wear or use.

Well, I personally found Tauren to be pretty tedious as well, it's because pretty well every other race has everything much closer together, Orc/Troll is a bit better, Undead is even better and Alliance just has it made with how close everything is together at the start. I just can't stand playing with Alliance teammates, they've always been so annoying both on my side or against me. Plus I like how horde tends to be 'fun' or goofy.

Playing a non-night elf alliance character is awesome simply because you get to play through Duskwood, and get to see Stitches doing his thing. I'll never forget the first time my pally encountered him as I was trying to find my way from Westfall to the inn @ Duskwood.

Heh.. well maybe I will try playing an undead character. I'll let you know if I do. I really do want to get into the game....I was actually at a BBQ this weekend with about 4 guys from the big B, and hearing them talk about it made me want to give it another try.

My chars a mage and I chose skinning and leatherworking as my professions cos from what I found they seem to weild alot of cash like mining and blacksmithing. But I didnt want to have to go out of my way to find ore when I'm constantly killing things that will give me leather.

you can make more money from leather working than taloring. and plus the guild I'm in already has a talor.
