Hello all,
For the most part, the questions have been answered. For clarity, I don't have the facility to re-instate deleted guilds. It isn't a log we have access to, no. The likelihood is yes, this data is stored on a server backup, but I don't know personally what it would take to restore the guild. I suspect that the process would require restoring the data back to a point prior to the dissolving of the guild, and then manually recreating the guild. This isn't something that is going to happen, I'm afraid. Dedicating dev resources to correcting something which was for all intents and purposes, an intentional act, and not a fault in the game's code, isn't going to happen. As a few have said, this has happened countless times over the years, and making an exception would be unfair to all who have had the request rejected in the past.
If this was a bug, or similar, we'd be having a completely different conversation, but it isn't, so we aren't. This is both a case of technical feasibility, and policy at stake. I'd be lying if I said this wasn't technically feasible (at least, I would suspect so, I don't know precisely how our data backups work and what options would be technically open to us). I'd also be lying if I said it was something that is going to be considered.
Thanks
Richard
