Deleting pirates
From YPPedia
Pirates in an account can be deleted by their owners, however there is a grace period after a character is deleted before the name becomes available for use again. This is to help in the case of a person changing his or her mind; characters can be retrieved from the dead by Ocean Masters during this time. The grace period is about 10 days.[1]
[edit]
How To
First log in to your account and click the "Delete Pirate" button located beneath the pirate you want to remove (highlighted here with a red box).
A confirmation screen will then appear asking you to confirm the pirate deletion. In order to complete the deletion, the account password needs to be typed in. This is to prevent accidental deletion.

Historical Note
- Originally, there was no grace period for deleted pirates, they were deleted immediately. This led to an occasional accidental deletion, and was changed at some point after a rather famous pirate was accidentally deleted. [2]
