Transferring characters to other forum accounts was created and allowed simply to have 10 characters per account instead of 5... to lower the amount of forum accounts needed.

The rule has been here forever...   

I personally will not get involved in a "character purchase"   no way would I put myself in the middle of what  95% of the time ends in the original owner taking the account back.. and the buyer acting shocked, and wanting us to get him "his" account and items back.

I'm being honest here when I ask... if everything about this game is so wrong..... just why bother??  For the drama?

It just makes no sense to me that you can share accounts, transfer characters from forum to forum but you can't sell them for GP. Honestly I think people will just do it anyway

You shouldn't have to get involved as I suggested, don't offer middleman support, don't offer support if someone gets scammed. Only offer to transfer an account if the person asking for transfer or who's sold/selling the character is the confirmed original owner of the account. I am aware of multiple situations of people giving away their characters then coming back months/years later and taking back the account causing major drama, I'm fully aware but I can't understand how that would be at all relevant if before you transfer the character you confirm that the person doing the transfer is the original owner of the account. See where I'm coming from?

''I'm being honest here when I ask... if everything about this game is so wrong..... just why bother??  For the drama?''

Guessing that's directed at me because when I'm around I make suggestions? Is that not healthy for a server lol, nothing I suggest is for totally personal gain, it's just using my experience and basic logic to come up with ideas that would hopefully boost the player count and make the server more appealing to people who are still sat playing other servers. If it's wrong of me to disagree with certain rules or bits of content and voice my opinion then remove the forums lol I thought that was what they are here for

All I'm saying is I can't begin to really explain how stupid it seems from a player point of view that: You may share your characters and not be punished. You may give away your characters and not be punished. You may transfer characters you own to any forum account. But you can't take money, where and how does that fit in with the other rules lol

Well I don't think we got any further after that post to be honest. You said it's been against the rules since you've been here - me too, and I've been here 3 and a half years almost now. Does that mean it's logical though? When we consider that when the rule originally was implemented you literally couldn't even share characters, that was against the rules at the time if memory servers me correctly, times have changed, now not only can you share your characters but you can give them away to people or you can have a moderator transfer them to any forum account of your choosing so it honestly baffles me as to why people couldn't accept GP for them too, still not really heard a logical/reasonable explanation from any member of staff regarding the matter

In regards to rest of the post, I understand where you're coming from. some people do make self centered demands that generally only benefit them or an extremely small group of people and yes there's a million different opinions from a million different people which can cause arguments/flaming, I personally think it's a good thing. It shows people are still passionate about this game and the more people that get involved with these discussions whether they be skillers, PKers, PVMers, edgesitters, every opinion and every **** you IMO is important in the end, without these debates and conflicts of interested the game is never going to improve, is it?

This isn't just what I want I'm not the only person questioning why this rule is still a rule, just clearly the only idiot currently with the time, patience or motivation to write posts like this. The subject matter at hand has been causing extreme confusion in Discord and In-game, and rightly so, because the rule stopping them doing what they want to do is outdated considering all the recent changes about giving away characters etc that I mentioned in beginning of my post. I want the game and community to thrive but it's really no surprise to me that it's the same old faces when there's so much stubbornness within the staff team about change and moving forward and when there's stupid rules that contradict themselves

Sure sounds self-intersted to me as do most posts by "veterans" here.  If you've got your flats (I'm sure you've got about a dozen), then what do you care other than you want to pad your bank account? 

@maddog, are you serious?  You've  bank standed long enough to make twenty flats lol why not just make one for each of your friends and share them?  You've obviously got the free time m8.

Should never have been allowed to share accounts. Problem solved earn your keep or dont play. Simple concept and not hard to do even playing 14 hours a week thats 2 hours day u can get things done if your life does not permit enough time well maybe thats telling you something? Some ppl have more time then others for whatever reasons you just find Were you fit in.

I did everything the fastest way possible. The community can easly grow faster if THE RIGHT PEOPLE WERE RUNNING THINGS. if i had a server id offer TRANSFERS why u ask because i wanna steal ppl from other servers so they would only play mine. I know how to excute it and make it work. I tried helping this server once then a queer took over. Now a b sanders freak is in place. I aint helping if this server dies i could careless ill play until its no more.
NOTHING LAST FOREVER try and understand that.

I did this. I did that, I could do this if, I could do that if. A lot of talking there mate. So you applied 6 times for mod, didn't get accepted - you threw countless idea's at n0m that got ignored, Billy and Kleio got put in the drivers seat and you don't like that and this is your little way of throwing your toys out the pram right? Defacing threads with valid points and ideas saying you don't care if the game dies while we're all here discussing how it can grow. Totally unnecessary, you are cancer. And in both your posts I didn't see anything to do with character selling, your posts were totally out of context to original and other posts, just drunk dope sick self centered type rambling

Enjoyed the fake numbers statistics etc too btw, because that's definitely 100 unique people etc. Lots of skilling wooo, what happens if there's no PKing to use up the supplies though? Without more people on the scene this slowly starts to happen, your poor bank Jedi it will be worth nothing all those super pots mate what you gonna do with them? Kill KBD? Sounds fun.

Offer transfers and legitimize sale of characters and the economy will come alive like never seen before. Maddog could buy 1000 flats accounts if he really wanted to. He could supply 100 people with 10 flats each. Those accounts will need supplying, that's a lot of farming and skilling to be done, benefiting the economy. Do nothing and PKing will remain stale and so will the economy, the server isn't getting any bigger currently it's getting smaller.

jedi please don't post again unless you're going to discuss the matter at hand, nobody wants to hear your drunk ramblings about how you're sad Billy and N0m never made you an admin and dismissed most your ideas

The only reason you need flats accts is because lvl 40 gets jumped by lvl 50 etc. up to flats.  Make it harder to train accts and pking will be better at lower lvls.  Why did I get into lvl 25 str pures and baby mages back in the day?  Because I could make one in a week with 30 mins a day to play and actually support my pking with 30 mins a day. 

People don't have time to train flats because they have lives as any 25-30 year old should.  Screw all the flats and multis they aren't doing any good just preventing normal people from pking.

-1 bad idea

Hi, just to clarify, the staff can assist you with transferring any character you created, between any of your forum accounts that you created. We don't support account transferring between players, because that would be a way for players to securely enforce character selling which is against our rules.
