There will be some sort of contest for the extra tab. It hasn't been explained yet.

As for the character equipment packs, that should be coming Thursday, if I read it correctly.

Lastly, to celebrate our anniversary, we have a limited-time offer where you can get a FREE pane of Xunlai Storage. Our upcoming promotion will be the ONLY way to get this special pane
Limited time offer doesn't really read like contest. Sounds a lot more like, buy one, get one free.

But they cay you can't buy the extra pane, only get one through their "promotion." So how could it be buy-one, get-one?

because if its a promotion in the ingame store (like the BMP), then more than likely if you buy a pane, or anything else for a certain amount then you'l get it

You can't buy it, it's free, as long as you buy another one during the limited time promotion.

I agree, It sounds like a "spend and get" promotion, something like buy 3 and get 1 free. Buy 1 and get1 free would be nice, but won't be economically viable on ANets part.

It being a "contest" is a laugh. What would they do? have you bring 6 Char Carvings to the Agent in game and get a storage tab? I don't think so. Perhaps a new Quest reward from a limited time NPC during the BDay Event? maybe but if they don't have time to balance skills I doubt they have time to invent new quests.

LMAO, that would be a little more than $9.99 ;-) "wts divine aura, imited time offer of $99.99" <-- more like it ;-) would u buy it? =D

the limited time offer, whatever it may be, has not been announced yet, so we do not know what day it will come out on. more than likely it will pop up on the 23 when the update ges live. and like everyone else in this thread has mentioned, it is prolly a "buy this, u can have a pane of storage" i'll laugh if it's buy three panes, get a single free pane ;-)

I agree, the way Anet has written between the lines on this one screams buy 3 get one free or if it is truely a one time offer thing it will be buy 4 get and exclusive 5th tab free. That way Anet can get the $40 USD max out of this situation. It is a great marketing way of insuring people spend the most on this promotion. People love free and exclusive in the same sentance.

Everyone should take notice that the $40 would roughly be the ammount we would be paying for a new expansion around this time.

So, with that said I am in full support of paying the $40 just so Anet can get there dang servers running better, I AM TIRED OF LAG!

I figured it would be a limited time ingame thing, like buying the materials tab but disabled after a few days.

If there isn't a free way to get an extra tab there are gonna be RIOTS. Everyone was so excited to hear about the storage expansion then pissed when they found out you have to pay. So everyone get your riot gear on and be prepared if it is a buy 1 get 1 free deal.

Who wants to bet that this promotion somehow involves purchasing Guild Wars via steam?

If not that, its going to be somethiing that requires you making a purchase. sigh

Its better to loose little money than loose a lot of money.

does that extra tab that cannot be obtain later means those who bought the promotion thingy gets 9 tabs instead of 8 tabs ? and other players will only always have 8 tabs?

Well Anet will be able to tell one thing out of this for sure.
People will only buy this addition for their MAIN account. It will give them a better count of active accounts out there, and maybe a better look as to how many may travel over to GW2.

As for the speculation of how many Tabs we will have total when this is all done, no one knows, stay tuned for tomorrow.

/agree

I don't have acces to credit cards, though if I could I'm sure I'd spend like 30$ on additional character slots.. they made it possible to buy the bonus mission pack with PayPal, how come it can be so $#%#%@ hard to make it a universal payment method..
