But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them “The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears.

A delay or cooldown timer on actually deleting a character would be something that would be very annoying to me. Off-topic: I do this exact thing myself. League characters are all reborn versions of old characters (same name, usually same class, but often entirely different otherwise). I delete the crappy ones who never quite got very powerful - the strange off-meta projects who would require way too much investment to catch up to the rest. In this way I keep the average power of my “roster” as high as I can. I’m always super careful to strip them before I delete. I sympathize with the OP; some of those old chars mean a lot to me and have decent investment so I’d be miserable if I accidentally deleted one. We're all in this leaky boat together, people.

about a year and so ago I deleted a low level raider with a pair of nicely corrupted Al Dhih's... felt bad and didn't know I could ask for a restore. Probably way too late :P edit: apparently not! can't see the inventory on the restored ladies here but when I am back on my main pc i going to check... just going to say never ever give up. you might be surprised at what gets saved and can be restored. Thanks GGG for having our backs!
