Extra character slot?

Just wondering if we can get confirmation on the character slot allowing 5th characters?

If so, there will be another 2m coming out of the economy from yours truely.

i think in old topics on the old forums, i remember hearing some staff say they dont plan on letting people have more than a maximum of 8 chars on two accounts. it helps diversify the economy to where people farm or pvp or craft, and are not easily able to do everything in the game.

with 10 chars per person, everything in the game is possible. this is to prevent someone from owning a thief, 5 tailors, a full crafter, a tamer, a bard, a fisherman, a lockpicker, and several pvp chars. 4 per account is PLENTY.

as it stands, i have all of the above on 6 chars. you have to make sacrifices. thats why i havnt bought any extra char slots yet.

The character limit also prevents people from doing the old char pvp switch. If you can have four accounts, you can die on a pvp char and leave him there to come on another char and fight and die... and continue the cycle. You could also have multiple factioners in multiple factions. It also makes dungeon crawling harder because when you go to help your old char out when they die and the second account char also dies... your stuck running out if you cant get out by other means ( help stuck if it works on this server in dungeons).

no gm response??

reason im asking, is my guildmates (a whole 2) think we can get 5 chars (supposedly one gm said you can on irc??).

I don't want to waste $1m without being certain...

I doubt GMs have time to read each and every post on forums. If you want to draw GM's attention, try PM'ing one of them or asking them on IRC, but as far as I know, it's 2 accounts x 4 characters = 8 toons total, maximum.

Here are the only relevant threads searching the forums for "extra character" yielded.

max is 4 chars per account, that is what is intended anyways. Can it be 5 and 3? gonna go with a big shiny no to that one, since i cant see how it could even be coded since the two accounts arent really linked in any coded way. I also wouldnt wanna screw up my account somehow by messing around with anything that seemed like it could corrupt the account data. But could you get 5 chars on an account?? beats me
