I have NEVER done something like that. Not once. I’ve thought about it but I’ve never done it. My personal values and morals aren’t that loose.
Speak for yourself when you speak of loose morals and poor values.
So freeloaders and exploiters are being rewarded while paying customers continue to see little value for their money in comparison - figures.

No, that is exactly what everyone else here, who calls people who didn't knew that this is a bug, a freeloader, or a exploiter. Why are they allowed to make ridiculous assertion, but I am not allowed to? I can't prove that it's a lie, so the others also can't prove what they are actually talking about.
And why people are behaving so aggressive and mad about this, I can't understand it. It will never affect them. Never. Yet they are really upset about it.

SIGH. Just come to a place of acceptance. Nothing will happen. Buy or don’t buy, there are plenty of cat-lovers out there for Zos to cover expenses.
What I want? Character is grayed out until the chapter is unlocked on account.
What I will get? Rueful chagrin and less guilt toward how I treat Zos.

Nice how your comment doesn’t get removed.
It’s not a lie, not everyone is as unscrupulous as you admitted (unprompted) to be.
Also I have no problem with the free Necromancer.
I accepted the situation on page 6, before you joined in with your “everyone takes advantage of situations all the time” bs (the first ridiculous assertion You made that I responded to, only for you to make Another ridiculous assertion.)SIGH. Just come to a place of acceptance. Nothing will happen. Buy or don’t buy, there are plenty of cat-lovers out there for Zos to cover expenses.

I haven’t accused anyone of being an exploiter or a cheater, however now that you admit to exploitation in real life it makes me wonder. I’m not going to assert that you are one, however.

On the topic of deleting unauthorized necromancers- (if deleting) Will the inventory on those necros also get deleted?
For that matter, Crown Store purchases?
I mean, players ought to know better than to expect to keep their necromancer if they didnt pay for Elsweyr.
no, @ZOS_GinaBruno already stated there will be no deletes
at this point, legitimate players are just hoping for the reasonable action of access to the characters having been locked until they are properly unlocked
Speak for yourself.
I could not possibly care less. Stop worrying so much about what other people do or don't have. It's not healthy.

They didn’t go scheming around hacking the game. They didn’t glitch into a wall to go snipe a boss. It was nothing different than usual, they were given the option to create a character, they made a character.
I’m sick and fkin tired of this community trying to lynch players for daring to benefit from something the game hands to them. Meanwhile all the *** show going on with performance and they say “have you called your ISP? Is your PC a potato?”
Well I’m sick a ‘fkin’ tired of people trying to use the excuse of ‘this game is bugged anyway’ to keep whatever they got by illegitimate means. What if I got the PTS gold? Would I want to keep it? Hell yes, but would I expect it to be removed? HELL YES.
But hey, it’s a bug and this game is bugged? But I’d bet you’d be one of the people complaining if I had a free 1000k in my inventory.
Why would I care? A million gold isn’t hard to make, on top of that, there’s nothing to use that gold on I couldn’t get myself. The same is true for anyone.
It’s funny you think I’d give crap about fake currency that has almost no use at max level. I didn’t when people got dozens of CP from IC, which is far less impactful than being able to make a new character. I don’t care that people got to make a necromancer without having to pay for a bogus chapter with less content than even Wrothgar offered. I’m happy for those players that can try out the new class without being ripped off.
Yes, 1 million gold, I didn’t word that right did I...I actually meant ‘one thousand million’ depending where you’re looking at it from its ‘one trillion’ which I bet you’d care just a little about since it would take a lot longer to make.
Now, you might not care about this game getting the support for the items it sells, but I find it interesting that you care enough that these people still get to ‘try it out’. I suspect that you’re no longer playing this game, not having paid for anything anyway, which makes me question, that if what happens to or supports this game is of no matter to you, why are you haunting the forums, little ghost?
I log in to do a daily, check if guildies need help, if they don’t I leave, because there is nothing to do in this game anymore. I’ve played every class, done every role, finished every trial, completed literally every single quest in the game.
And no, I still wouldn’t care if you had 100 million gold, I wouldn’t care if you have 100 billion gold. The amount is meaningless. I’ve bought every DLC, bought the chapters, and I regret giving ZOS a dime. They prove time and time again they have absolutely no priority on bugs unless it’s beneficial to players.
Anything else? Meh, why not make us wait another 6 months, then maybe they’ll try to fix it.
That’s how I know you’ve played the game for a while. They can fix a bug like this in less than a week but it takes a couple months to fix the stuck in combat bug right? That’s why I don’t care now that the players got a freebie from their own mistake, serves them right.
at this point, legitimate players are just hoping for the reasonable action of access to the characters having been locked until they are properly unlocked

Delete the toons and temp ban the accounts. Might seem severe but I'm not a fan of the "my exploiting is ZOS's fault" attitude.
Just to confirm, we won't be deleting the characters or banning accounts for this.
You are technically correct.In my opinion people should be held to higher standards. Even if you did not know it was a bug when creating the necro, by ZOS hotfixing it, you do now. I agree with what some have posted here, and locking the necro untill purchase, maybe even add it as on-sale dlc so they do not have to buy entire Elsweyr. Just move the items and currencies on the locked characters to the bank or the highest toon on the account.
If ZOS does not uphold these standards I can only imagine what happens next time if they accidently sell an entire expansion or a year long ESO+ sub for free.... exploit as much as you want guys?... doubt it. Not locking the exploited characters or giving away the necro to everyone for free will send that message.
People should really have higher standards for themselves and others. If I were to create one of these necro's during a bug, I wouldn't be surprised if it got locked. In fact I would even expect it to be. Even if I did not know it was a bug.
It is not about monetary value, it is about moral standards. And about future exploits.
