Means someone else has the name pvm

Char is gone for good

Someone else created the name while your character was expired. There's no way to get it back, so whatever was on the character is lost.

My character wasn't expired...

guess people aren't looking at the screenshots provided lol

THE CHAR WAS ACTIVE. i was baaling on it all day.. i was doing a level job on it.. theres NO POSSIBLE WAY the char was expired.. belive me.

I don't have images loading right now, mobile.



Fill out the form and wait a day and see what happens. Either it'll work, or you'll still have to wait for a response from blizzard.

Pvm is a really wanted name. In fact, all of your names are. Meaning so many people are going to attempt to create that name. And if you have enemies or someone who wants the name bad enough, they will attempt to create it all day long. At least this is the error I got when a rival player did it to me. It happened to me years ago with the name Fade@useast. Of course there are other reasons player not found can occcur, but you've seemed to eliminate some of the other possbilities.

Hope it works out.

Yeah lets hope blizzard can fix this... really hope the hammerdin I just spent 10,000 forum gold on isn't " gone " randomly... Jesus how does this even happen?



I'm hoping this is a error, I did NOT delete it, and even if I did it wouldn't be on the character list... this is so stupid why would it happen to me?

I waited 8 hours, didn't work so I'll fill out the form, guess it's up to blizzard now.

This is happening more and more.

This is the first time I have seen it happen with a name that is permed (spent more than 2 hours in in-game)

Deleting the cache,restarting, etc etc isn't going to fix this.

You can try Blizzard but this is happening on a greater scale than most people are aware.

Essentially no one has a privilege to use a name more than anyone else meaning if these glitches occur Blizzard

isn't going to be able to determine the old user from the new nor who got screwed over.

This has happened to me about 5 times the most recent name was Java.

I just take it as a loss and move on.

I doubt Blizzard will do anything other than extend their apologies. I also doubt they will take the character from the new owner to give you yours back.

I think it is a can of worms they aren't going to want to open.

With that being said contacting Blizzard is your only course of action at this point. Give it a try you have nothing to lose at this point.

Ahh fuck it, called blizzard said nothing they can do, and since there servers are out of date I can't recover my character.. sigh a 11yr old game yet this shit surprises me...
