Is it safe to afk at character select?
 
If say I don't have any corpses to decay? This is something I avoided out of general fear & irrational reasons, I am curious what other people have experienced with this.

Not sure I understand the question. I interpret "at character select" as you haven't picked a character to enter Norrath with. Maybe you mean something else, as at character select you aren't in game and nothing can happen to your character.

I am afraid someone will come into my room and delete it while I am stretching lol. Or my cat will.

You could tab out to another app so EQ doesn't receive inputs from your keyboard or mouse.

The only thing that happens at char select is that your rez timer if any is running and the GMs can tell you're there.

Are you actually asking us if you can trust yourself, the people you live with and your pets???

You could just go back one page with the exit / back button and you're totally safe from everquest character deleting cats

However if you've got family which wants to delete your characters, can't help you, they'll possibly pour woucestershire sauce on your graphics card to fuck with you, you never can tell :D

Family, people in my head. Evil spirits. It's a mess. I love them all very much though, that's why I play EQ and work out so I can stay with them on the earth.

I'd suggest to never leave the character on the select screen, if for anything just for your own piece of mind when you leave the room.
