For ANet to do it they would have to charge something for it. Storage space = server resources and these have to be payed for somehow. I would happily pay £2.50 GBP for more storage space if it was an option, not least because I tend to act as the guild vault for my guild, so more storage would make this easier for me, as it stands I have 1 mule already and I am starting to need to create a second 1. Characters should be for playing, not storage unless you want to use them for this.

I can still remember the nagging for more storage when we only had 1 tab and the materials tab.
Back then the nagging was justified because 1 tab of 20 items over 8 characters was a bit shabby.
Now we got 4 + materials and still you're whining for more storage.
I've got a good tip you can use. Hang on to less junk and you won't have storage problems

imo extra storage should be free. (as it is)

If this was done, I would think ppl will want "add more item slots in bags" next. (which I would think would be better than buying extra storage w/ real money) (ie WoW has almost endless space for items, but even there it's never enough. lol)

You should write a hatemail to Anet then because more storage already exists in the form of extra char slots. The OP is merely suggesting an alternate method which would cause less space to be used up on Anet's servers since they wouldn't have to store all the mule character information as well.

Are you against the GW servers running more effectively?

Implemented in this way:

Instead of buying a 'character slot' you buy a 'slot'. In next option you can choose to OR add a character slot OR increase your storage box with the same amount of storage that one character with all/full bags has.

This makes it much easier to manage storage than when you buy characters for storage 'mules' because you don't have to log in/out all the time.

I absolutely support this. With the addition of available character slots to buy, there should also be storage to correspond. Personally I think it ought to be proportional as to how many characters you have, as was mentoined earlier, but it's more realistic I think to say that I would support it if storage were offered for a price on the online store.

I'd be willing to pay $5 or even as much as $10 for additional storage pages just for their ease of use over the hassle of mule characters. I mean, the idea of having to make mule characters in itself annoys me greatly -- especially when I'll mostly be using them to store armor for other characters. Please ANet, take our damn money for something we really want here.

I think we can have a total of 26 or 34 slots...
I only need 10 slots.
Each character counts with 20+5+10+10+equipment slots+hero equipment slots.
That makes over 100 slots per character.

So, instead f filling one of those 26 extra slots with a character that I'm not going to use, I'd rather fill it with a real mule which storage can be accessed from the Xunlai Storage panel.

Anyways, I will always thing that is better to add a way to prevent the need of storage (armor, weapon and miniature unlock instead of saving it) than adding more storage.

I am tired of these E-games trying to milks players of every penny we have, I think we should get more storage space for free, at most, requiring a quest or mission, Not money. They don't even give an additional storage slot for gwen. So no way would i pay for more space.

/notsigned. sorry. good idea but Enough is enough, fight the greed.

Creating new accounts works, but I personally would rather add on extra storage units to have a nice reserve for all my accounts because it makes it easier to find a particular item. For example, I currently use one of the pages for additional salvaged items (like tanned hide etc) so all my characters have access to it.

And to JRK247, a new character has much more than 20 because of additional bags and such, that gives you 45. But still, you're paying for being able to have another character so 10 would be too high, perhaps 3 but no more than that.

If you go through your storage/ mule characters you will find so much rubbish you don't need or ever used so deleted some of it

IMO, we should be able to buy it with in-game gold. Maybe 10k-20k gold per new storage box. Max it out at 10 pages (as opposed to current 4 pages)... Also add more runes of holdings... 5->10 for belts and 10->20 for bags.

/not signed to buying more storage with real life money because:

if I can buy extra characters to use as storage, why would I want to buy just the storage? it does not make sense, since when I get an extra character I get the character slots and the storage, so, why would anyonw want to buy just the storage without the character? Logically, when a new character slot is purchase, it will increase the use of storage, it is good to give extra storage to characters slots purchased because, it will increase the use of the online store. and encourages players to buys more slots and play more.

/signed for extra storage whenever a player purchase a new character slots, and implement it to people who have already bought extra characters slots.

or

/signed for getting extra storage from doing elite dungeon.

or

/signed for buying with in-game gold

maybe you should earn extra storage per character birthdays. Rewards people that way.
