Talk:CharacterLimits

Is it safe to assume that when these limits come into effect if we already have 3 active nobles that one will not be taken away from us. Currently I have 5 available characters, can have 3 active, 2 of wish can be noble. Also currently I have 3 active nobles. I hope to be allowed to keep them when the code change comes into effect. Overall I think that this is a great idea. It will allow for players to play more characters and not give up ones they hold dear. Also allow them to try something different for a while without having to give up on a well loved character. Doddjh

A limit to the amount of characters? I don't know. I once socially destroyed a char, giving me two options. Emigrate or start a new char. I chose the second, also giving me new role-play possibilities, as now I had a 17 year old son. And another one died, so I would have already used 5 of my 8 possible characters. I probable won't reach the limit, but shouldn't we be free to decide to delete a char and start a new one? (Maybe adding a role-play feature, giving you the option when deleting your char to retire, commit suicide, or if older to die from diseases or have a natural death.) On the other hand, a noble limit would be nice to stop multi-cheaters, but for new players it might not be that fun. If you happen to join a peaceful realm with not that many discussion, it might be good to have additional nobles as well. As what is the prize of your safety if it's at the cost of your privacy? The same can be applied here as well, do you wish to add features to prevent cheating at the cost of the fun (mostly for new players I suppose)? --Roy 15:24, 15 September 2010 (UTC)

Roy, I think you may be misunderstanding. If you retire a character, it will be gone—no longer counting against your character limit. It's a limit to the number of characters you can have in active play or paused at one time, not a limit to the number of characters you can create ever. The change is that you can pause one character and have it no longer count against your active character limit, then create another: both characters count against your total character limit, but only the new one counts against your active limit. --Anaris 17:43, 15 September 2010 (UTC)
