One of my characters is gone...and its rares (in General)

I just went to go to my other character to transfer over my Elven Cloak...the character is gone...any ideas?

Although I'm far from an expert, with what little info you gave there I would be guessing you're referring to Trialnerror? He's retired. Looks like if you wait around a week you'll get him back. No clue how or why that is, but that's my guess at your situation.

I never retired him???

What was the character called?...

if it is TrialnError, it was auto-retired for haveing a score well below the pr..or mpr? just wait 4 days to unretire

Wonder how many posts were gonna have about the same thing....

You probably received an email notifying you of him being auto-retired, am i wrong?

lol....=P

I had a character do the same thing to me and no I didn't get an email telling me it will be retired in xx days, I know what that is, as I've had one of those before on the second chracter I had created to hold stuff so I grew him a bit. Oh and I"m pretty positive I didn't retire him. So I'm just saying it might actually be a problem and not just a "stupid (lower than 100k mpr) new player" thing.

Q: What is this about Characters being auto-retired?
A: Auto-retire is a feature built into the game to get rid of abandoned characters. It compares your score and your PR (power rating). If your score drops too low relative to your power rating (the actual ratio is subject to change, but low enough that a normally equipped character will not have to worry), then you will receive a warning e-mail. If you do nothing, your character will be auto-retired in one week.

We do this because when people strip a Character of items and move on to another without retiring the first, the abandoned Character will sink in score and start to cause a lot of stalemates because his HP is high compared to others at the lower score. This tends to really annoy people.

If you are actively playing your Character, reaching this ratio is unheard of. However, it does occasionally happen to "mule" Characters of an otherwise active user. (Hint: don't create Minions for your mules.) For this reason we send the warning e-mail to give you a chance to bring your PR up (or at the very least transfer your items off) before the time your character is set to auto-retire.

Finally, if your character does happen to get auto-retired you will still have one final option. There is a 4 day window beginning 4 days after you are auto-retired during which you can "unretire" your character. Remember, however, that if your score remains too low, your character will end up being auto-retired again.

No email that I am aware of...but thanks for explaining it Soul.
