The mentality that I believe Sweet Lew comes from is that if one truly wishes to leave something behind, as OP is clearly expressing a desire to with destiny, they don't keep it's remnants. Again, I don't agree with the basic principle, I don't think anyone should be forced to delete a character just to prove they want to quit the game, but I think it is far from insanity. Also the reason I mentioned whether or not he deleted his characters is because I previously pointed out that OP deleted his characters, and I was wrong, so whether or not it was relevant, I do not want to leave a clearly false statement that I made uncorrected.
