    Names of V1 characters are permanently locked to the account on which they were created even if the character bearing that name is deleted, so only characters created on that account can be given that name. SE did this to ensure V1 players didn't 'lose' the names they used in V1 when V2 launched.

    So, even if you manage to delete the character, which as you've found out can only be done in-game, you'd not be able to achieve what you're trying to.

    This isn't a 1.0 character. I created it in the Beta for 2.0 I wasn't able to delete the character because the account was disabled when the Beta ended. I chatted with SE Tech support last night. They informed me that the only way to delete the character would be to apply a new registration code to the service account to reactivate it. Then I could delete it. Even then, you are telling me that once a character name is created, it can never be used again on the same server by a different person.
