Does Diablo 2 still delete characters?

No, Diablo 2: Resurrected does not delete characters due to inactivity, unlike the original Diablo II game, where multiplayer characters would expire if they were inactive for too long. In Diablo 2: Resurrected, characters will remain in the game in perpetuity, as long as the game is still active, and the only way they can be deleted is if the player manually chooses to do so.
