Claims belonging to inactive players expire automatically after a period of 60 days (Locks on chests, however, are indefinite). After this period, users may ask an admin to overtake an abandoned claim. Claims that are left abandoned for prolonged periods of time may be rolled-back and deleted to ensure the world has space for everyone. If you are concerned about losing your claim, you may create a ticket or alert an admin to your situation. Any structures that are subject to deletion will be backed-up first and later able to be restored should the owner become active later.
