Title: Character Purge

I Dont know if this still happens in the background, but if not might be worth a thought

I'm sure there are hundreds if not thousands of unused toons clogging up the DB

The server is running real sweet now with all the code updates, but every bit helps i guess =)

Anyways, just a thought

Because of a massive overhaul that I wrote back in the September of 2014, the way character data is loaded and saved was completely redone, this is no longer an issue because with old system there was a massive amount of whitespace.
