Private servers and exportable characters, I'd be pissed if all the work I put into a character was gone.
At the very least, a save game editor wouldn't be too hard to create when running your own server.
Though that got me thinking if there's some kind of GDPR shenanigans one could already utilize to get all your account data. I kind of doubt it, but it would be hilarious.
GDPR protects user data, not virtual data associated with an avatar you control. We might get there someday, but as of now, you'd only be able to request copies of stuff directly associated with yourself.
That would definitely be nice, but if you control the server you can (re)build whatever character you want.
