Yes and no. Any account that had been inactive since the last week April was wiped in order to free up some names and empty out the clutter.
You can hit 25 easily.

Read me

Besides, timeline for that charwipe was more, than a month. Any account, not logged in since 26th April was wiped. So aroundish 4 months.

Considering it's only if you had not logged in prior to April 26 and that is 4 months ago, sounds like you took longer than 1 month. Additionally since you only have one post and joined in February of this year it seems you were not really active on here in contradiction to your post.

If all your characters were gone after 1 month sounds like you had an account wipe for an offence rather than being caught in the account wipe.

He has probably created more than one account; many people seem to prefer to write on the forum with sockpuppet accounts.

Btw, if someone has more than one account and thinks his chars are gone when he comes back after a while, i suggest to double check all accounts; GMs had "issues" in the past that people thought their chars have been wiped, but they simply logged the wrong account...

That was just a general hint to everyone. :)

Only GMs can check other accounts, but it would be advisable to check all the accounts you have by yourself, to be sure you log the right one(s).
