Characters

[MrJace]

I made an error with my characters. The one that is now #5 is supposed to be #4, and I have a core that I need to register for #5 slot. The site would not allow me to delete one of the two even though I had just made them. The ability to edit our characters better than just editing information would be very helpful.

Can this also get forwarded to whoever can fix it please?

Character #5 Vagnen Icehelm should be #4 then I can input the others correctly.

Thank You

Having the ability to edit our own more would be a great benefit as well as less of a work load for those that maintain the site.

If you are not approaching it through the My Pathfinder Society page you should try going that way. I have been able to delete any of my characters until they have a session registered to them, but only through the My Pathfinder Society page

But once you delete them, you may not be able to recreate that number.

You can rename them until you've posted under that alias too many times.
If you have one name in the wrong spot, rename it "some random guy" or somesuch temporarily while you switch them around and then rename them in the order you want correctly.

I know I've had to do it a few times as the numbering convention on my spreadsheet was off from what I had registered on Paizo at one point.

Deleting, as GinoA metioned, is a last-resort sort of thing. You don't get the #'s back.

The issue is then the GM has to re-report all the games because numbers had to change. It makes it to where I do not want to register my characters. It doesn't make sense to not be able to fix things that I can fix on paper. It's a bad design.

Nothing anywhere says you do not get the number back if you delete that number. It's bad practice.

The GM accidentally put the wrong character number so it isn't allowing a delete once I created it. When you deleted, were you able to re-use that number?
