Thank you for your very detailed response! It has helped me a lot in my search for my old account. For anyone else having a similar problem, try logging into Light's Hope by changing your realmlist and log in with your old details there. My password wasn't my most recent one for the account it was the one before that. Hopefully, like me, all your old characters should be there to hop straight back on to :D But yes, Light's Hope has a very low population and the auction house isn't well stocked at all. So, if you want a lively realm, it is probably best to reroll with Elysium on Nighthaven. Or you can wait (possibly years) for wow classic to be released haha! If you just wanted to make sure you have access to your old characters again like me, then hopefully this has helped. Thank you again Zancon! You have helped massively in solving my mystery and my mind is at rest finally after months of worry! Happy gaming everyone!

Hey, I played on the Elysium realm when it first opened in January 2017. Around the time the realms moved over to Light's Hope, I hadn't played for a month or two. When I found out about all the news that had happened, I tried restoring my account onto Light's Hope which didn't work. The reason I don't think it worked was because I think there was two different occasions you had to restore your account over a couple of weeks and I had missed the first occasion which meant when I came back and tried on the second occasion, there was no account to restore? I'm not sure the problem but at the time I sent a tweet to Elysium's twitter for help with no response. Since then I think everyone's account have been moved back from Lights Hope to Elysium? I'm not really sure of the situation at the moment but would really love to play vanilla again with my old account as I had a level 60 character and don't quite have the time to commit to starting a fresh one. Thank you for any help possible!
