Quote:I agree that 10 is somewhat arbitrary at this point. If a significant number of players felt the way you do, I'm sure they could take the database hit and expand it. However with respec costs down to basically being a speed bump, I dispute the need from a game play perspective to have more then one character of a class. In fact it would probably be a detriment - it would be far far easier to delete your fire mage and respec your frost one if you wanted to try out fire for a while. Especially for mages, where your frost gear would pretty much transfer over comepletly. I'm not sure leveling to 46 counts as large amounts of time.

I like alts as much as the next guy. I've played every class to 30. I can't see many people having the motivation to make more then 9 (soon 10).

I see you also have a bank toon. I'd much rather see Bliz spend their time working out a rational means of account wide storage then spending it expanding the character slots for the few edge cases such as yourself.
Edge case? Hardly. I did not say I had spent the same amount of time on my alts as if they were all 70's. It doesn't matter. I spent time on them. I do not want to delete them. I do not want to respec them. I have also spent gold on recipes and patterns and designs. I have spent time fishing and cooking and mining. All of my toons are intertwined. They provide for each other. The level number attached to a toon is only a relative indication of time spent. It is not for you to declare them insignificant to my game play. As I said, if Blizzard had a valid technical reason for doing so (there has to be a bigger database hit to maintain accounts across servers than there is for the toons on a single server), there would be no argument. Also remember that, if you stop paying for your account, they promise that they will keep any toons you have at the time you stop paying so they will be there if you do come back and start paying them again. If this is a database problem, shouldn't they trim those toons out so they don't have that hit? There is no valid reason for the way they have it set up. I would really love to see a survey of how many of their customers would appreciate more than 10 slots, preferably equal to the account limit. I believe it would be a large portion of their current user base.
