Half of this thread... I don't even.... /facepalm.

If you really are the dramatic type who rage-deletes characters over stupid little things repeatedly, you really believe you deserve extra attention to fix your problems? That's definitely what seems to be the core idea. As for the person who found out it is account-wide, yes they should probably alter this slightly. But seriously, if you are short-sighted enough to repeatedly discard your character of your own volition, you get no sympathy.

As for hacked deletes, there should be more leeway for this, but to prevent abuse there should be measures to prove account hacking as well.
