seems like that would take a bit of work, but could be worth it
Quote : | " Can I transfer characters from one account to another?
Yes, you can transfer characters not just between realms but also between accounts where you are the subscriber. Please note that any attempt to transfer a character to or from an account where you are not the subscriber could be considered a violation of the World of Warcraft Terms of Use and could lead to Blizzard taking disciplinary action against your subscription account(s), including but not limited to warnings, temporary account suspension, or permanent account suspension, as determined by Blizzard.
To initiate a transfer between two accounts where you are the subscriber, you will need to specify the account name associated with the account you wish to transfer a character to, and answer the 'secret question' for the destination account. Without this information an account to account transfer will not be possible.
Who is eligible for account-to-account transfers?
Characters may be eligible for transfer between accounts which are registered to the same user. To conduct an account-to-account transfer, you will have to answer the 'secret question' for the destination account, and the last name on both accounts must match. We do not support the transfer of characters between friends, guild mates, or family members.
Why is it set up that way?
Blizzard takes the integrity of its game and the matter of account ownership very seriously. For this reason, the sale of characters and accounts is expressly against the World of Warcraft Terms of Use, and the transfer of characters from one account owner to another is prohibited." |

some people want to have an opposing faction account on the same server...note I don't think its worth it. But its kept me from getting ganked when guildies hopped on their horde guy and told them to quit being douchebags or knows people. 5/4/2008 4:10:52 PM |

CapnObvious All American 5057 Posts user info edit post |
^It is only set up that way on PvP servers. There are SO many reasons not to allow it anyways.
Imagine if there was a same faction guy that annoyed you so you stalked him on your other character.
Or you were ganked by some person and you log onto a lvl 1 alt of the opposite faction so that you could /who him to figure out where he was so you could forever camp him. 5/4/2008 5:56:55 PM |

Some people are either addicted enough or enjoy playing by themselves enough that it's worth it to them. Generally it's because they want to play multiple characters at once, so having two accounts lets them solo that much more, or pvp on two or more characters at once.
There are some people who take it to extremes. For instance, one guy plays five accounts at once--four mages and a healer--and does pvp that way. He has macro controllers set up so that the mages all target the same person and load up the same nuke, so he can basically focus fire and one-shot people.5/5/2008 12:50:26 AM |

I have two accounts because one was supposed to be for my girlfriend. She got a priest to level 10 and called it quits. I started leveling alts there and running myself through things. It is very nice when transferring items horde <--> alliance. 5/5/2008 2:27:25 PM |

I'm a total noob. I've been playing about two weeks now and I have a lvl 26 belf warlock and a lvl 8 undead priest that I rolled yesterday. I'm really digging my warlock but unfortunately I rolled on a low pop rp server, which seemed like a good idea for learning how to play, but I'm frustrated that there are hardly any people available for PuGs. Still not frustrated enough to pay for a transfer yet, though. It'll probably be better if I join a guild or something. 5/10/2008 8:13:41 AM |
Grandmaster All American 10829 Posts user info edit post |
the first time i played it was on an RP server by recommendation of my coworker and his wife. I ended up having a pretty decked out rogue stuck in the realm of PvE. Luckily, on Kirin Tor a large percentage of the alliance side never RP'd , but it was still frustrating to be 'confined' like that. 5/10/2008 8:30:52 AM |
ThePeter TWW CHAMPION 37709 Posts user info edit post |
If you joined a guild, they would make you go through a really strange initiation ceremony...people on RP servers are weird . You're still low, so you can easily just reroll on a new server and get back to 26 in no time now that you have a better idea what's going on. 5/10/2008 12:21:32 PM |

I had(have) a level 40-something warlock. I get the urge to play every now and again, but then I realize that I'd rather watch porn/not pay for an account. Also, all of my friends who have accounts are level 70's, therefore, no fun leveling by myself (they all leveled together). 5/10/2008 1:48:39 PM |

Crazy how quickly that server went from hardcore progression to a giant steaming pile of shit (although it was hardly surprising). I can attest to the fact that RP wasn't very prevalent on the Alliance side during the heyday of KT...and the segment of the population that *did* RP seemed to do a pretty good job of keeping all of the chatshitters and their Chuck Norris jokes out of the trade channel (although their *RP* posts on the realm forums were usually pretty fucking atrocious). Who knows what the fuck goes on there anymore though...the bits and pieces of info that I hear don't speak very highly of the realm (although it's usually a pretty fucking amusing anecdote or two). I don't miss that server at all...but the stories and memories are priceless. I'm sure that a collection of tales from KT could make for a pretty fucking entertaining read.
I think that the lesson here isn't so much a blight against RP realms, as it is a testament to the fact that being stuck on a PVE realm of any kind -- particularly with a geared out toon -- really, really sucks.5/12/2008 10:03:01 PM |
