How many accounts do you have?

[Trollhide]

Being a raging altoholic, I want to have at least one of each class, but I have a mental block.

It just feels inexplicably wrong or weird to me to have characters I invest time and effort into split across multiple accounts, especially on a no boxing server like this one. I wanna make a single account as badass as possible, but of course that doesn't leave room for one of each class. Maybe I'm just being neurotic [You must be logged in to view images.

One.

If you put all your characters on one account:

you risk losing all of them to a single suspension/ban;

you risk losing all your characters/gear/plat to a hack;

you risk losing all your characters/gear/plat to a "friend" abusing your password/trust;

you won't have your druid to let your "mom/gf/brother" play in 3 minute increments; and

you only have to pay one subscription fee.

Valid points, I did not consider this

I have altitis too but how does one have multiple accounts without getting Ip issues anyway. Not saying I want to, I would rather have some new servers to play on.

You can create a million accounts, you just can't play more than one at a time. It's just to get more available character slots.

I've never had to worry about that.

I wouldn't even trust my wife or daughter with the password.

Indeed. I speak from experience. My wife "stole" my original EQ account back in 1999, forcing me to make a new one.

You also risk losing raiding privileges when you get raid suspended... <looks at awakened>
