Re: Merging my two accounts?

I agree with Admin on this one. They have a hard enough time with modders, sammers, and general cheating this would slow them down with support issues. I really doubt that one is going to spend more cash just because they have split their toons into more accounts. If someone needs plat and has $100 to spend they will jus do a little on each acct. I doubt that one would buy $100 in plat and then spend more money than they planned just so they could put money on a second acct. Doesn't make much sense to me considering most people have a predeterminled amount of money they have to spend on this game.
I for one would purchase the max plat bundle for both accounts, as i am sure many high level players would.

Every solution is scamable.

There are two primary issues as I see it.

1. many people are using multiple devices and would like to have options with which of their toons are grouped.
Solution - splitting up accounts or allowing the same acount to be logged into multiple times from diferent devices works.

2. Plat sharing
Combining accounts would work but works against problem 1. The abilty to trade plat or having all plat items tradeable would be a better fix.

There is really no reason for OTM not to split (or merge) account if they have a good security infrastructure in place.

The problem is anyone can change the registered e-mail if they know the account password. And this is the primary issue - OTM is not able to verify if the account is truly the yours when the e-mail changes.

I believe it should be okay if the registered e-mail has never changed. This guarantees there has been only one owner - splitting the account should not be a concern.

Hey it's not currently possible, and my main concern with this is that it would make it much harder to deal with things like recovering accounts being stolen after someone shares their password. What do you think?
Honestly, anyone that gets their account stolen has given out their username and password - isn't that against the rules of the game anyway? People have Email verification, they should use it. If they have more than 1 account - they should have more than 1 email.. I mean, an Email address isn't exactly hard to set up, and I don't think that is any reason for NOT allowing toons to be moved from 1 account to another.

I personally would love to be able to move all of my toons to different accounts. I am looking to get an iPhone to duel-log.. But when I was a noob, I foolishly payed for character slots, and now have a 145Rogue, 96Ranger (Meteoric Bow), 80 Warrior, 80Druid and a 65Mage, ALL on the same account - which to me.. Gives no point in having them.

A Nice Alternative -

A nice alternative, in which OTM would gain from it too - would be to have Accounts able to be logged into by 2 Devices at once. I'm sure this isn't possible right now, but it would be great if it was. OTM would still make money off character slots, and players would still be able to duel-log.

This is how it would work -

1st Device logs in.. Clicks on the toon (Rogue) they are going to play.
2nd Device logs in.. The rogue now has a Padlock in the top corner of the picture (Where the red X usually is).
The rogue is Inaccessible on the 2nd Device as the 1st Device is already on it. So the 2nd Device will choose the class they will want to play :)

Pros
- Much faster toon switching
- OTM still make money on character slots
- Noobs (like myself) that made multiple toons on the same account, would be able to duel-log. (I'm sure will create more plat purchases as people will have a reason to make alts, therefore need inventory space, and possibly hot bar slots.

Cons
- Nothing.


(IMHO, i would much rather have all toons on the same account, but have the account accessible on multiple devices, than have all my toons on completely different accounts all together).

Admin what do you think? Would that ever be possible to have accounts accessible by 2 devices at once? An answer would be great. Also what does everyone else think of this idea?

Any feedback welcome!
This is great it would also to a lesser extent prevent hacking.
