I have 2 accounts.

Mostly bought the second because a character slot is 10 bucks the trilogy was selling for 30.

Also helped to transfer hunter gifts, dye and event goodies out of pre so my permapre can stay there.

But mostly for extra storage, 30 bucks for 5 storage slots and I think 8 character slots, which would be like 120 bucks otherwise. May still buy the 4 addition storage slots on my main.

If wealth actually mattered ingame I'd care. But it doesn't, so meh.

I dont remember anywere saying about 1 account per person. in the "old" factions or prof case.. when i get home il open up the boxes and see.. but im pretty sure it satted somethging else.. not what you are saying most likely just wishfull thinking on your part -_-

more money for anet = more money for GW2 = happy me

more seriously, if in game money matters that much to you, I think there's definitely something weird with you

incredibly rich people used other tricks to get that much money, I don't see multiple accounts as a real problem

nearly nothing is out of reach for a somewhat dedicated player nowadays, in game money is no big deal imo

I didnt read it in the box, it was the one when i signed up for beta in game online.... they prob changed it since then.

two things, 1st does it really matter, you cant buy skill, not skills but skill, so it really doesn't matter if they are wealthier than you. and second the huge benefit from multiple accounts was tournament house and its been down for a while now.

Ghost Omel · Jul 13, 2009, 10:07 PM // 22:07

You are going back 4 years back ?...

If its not in factions then Money has nothign to do wiht this....

See how you kinda triped on your own steps there.. XTH wasnt introduced in Factions so if its in Factions EULA then well Anet does not promote it.

Of course the beta would be one account/person. What's the purpose of a beta test if they're not getting the most people testing?

Mireles · Jul 13, 2009, 10:10 PM // 22:10

that was my point, the EULA been revised 4 times since then... they prob took that part out so they could sell more accounts... that rule used to be in place so when they banned a person they couldn't return to guild wars on another account. and XTH wasn't a issue until z-keys came out little over a year ago.

Obama style justice would be taking away everyones money, dividing it by the amount of players, and redistributing it.

Normally, I would agree with you. But, in Guild Wars you can get 2 sets of max armor, all the weapon sets you need, and a good number of skills for under 50k. Everything else is just epeen. So i just think your jelous.

Gift3d · Jul 13, 2009, 10:17 PM // 22:17

more accounts = more money for players and more money for anet

the majority of players and anet profit from this in one way or another
the poor jealous players are the only ones who qq and their opinions will continue to have no impact

SORREH.

Ceifador · Jul 13, 2009, 10:20 PM // 22:20

People use their money like they want. If they wanna spend hundreds of dollars to buy lots of accounts it is their problem, I see no problem if they can get more money this way, they paid for that so they have the rights to have this "advantage" over the other players.

BTW this is a great source of money to Anet, so don't think they will change this, it is easier for them to create more beneffits for people with multiple accounts.

Mireles · Jul 13, 2009, 10:21 PM // 22:21

jealous of what, people's ability to throw there money into a game... anyone can swipe a credit card... its just most of us choose not too becasue games are for playing not wasting money. people just might as well post there bank account balances. I am just asking for a level playing field for all. That used to be what this game was about... skill.. not how much time you spend playing or how much your willing to spend

upier · Jul 13, 2009, 10:23 PM // 22:23

Well, the XTH gives me free money each month. That means that armour, skills and most importantly, festival tickets are actually CHEAPER these days than they used to be.

Agree , even when there were no optional char slots to buy lol , hardcore gamers on non monthly fee game .... tsk tsk.

HawkofStorms · Jul 13, 2009, 10:35 PM // 22:35

I have one account.
I have more money then 90% of those idiots buying ten accounts (who are also out several hundred dollars in real life for no reason after the XTH has been suspended, /point /laugh).

It is our fault for buying z-keys at such overly inflated prices anyways. The supply has already started to outstrip demand, as key prices were dropping a lot before they got rid of the XTH. It won't last, same with people selling Nicholas gifts at high prices.

Kuroshi · Jul 13, 2009, 10:38 PM // 22:38

Content like this sells more games/account keys...A corporation in it for the money would never remove things that make them money, regardless how people feel about it.

slowerpoke · Jul 13, 2009, 10:38 PM // 22:38

why buy accounts when you can 'borrow' them from friends who quit playing long ago

Highlander Of Alba · Jul 13, 2009, 10:45 PM // 22:45

I have 3 only

the first 2 was when travel / favor/friends I had 1 on US ad 1 on Euro

This in turn lead me have all campaigns on each .then latley when the 4 was selling at 24.99 I purchased another..

When slots became available I made a Male and a Female of each class

Over the 4 years this amounted to very litttle as no fees to play.

So 4 years very little outlay and I think in real money terms its Nil for what I have out of it.
