    Yes, you will have more than 8 slots after the server merge if you're a subscriber.

    confirmed: devs would rather give out free account slots than gouge more monies out of the community

    After the merge all characters will be 'disabled' and you will have the opportunity to pick which ones you wish to enable.

    After consuming all available slots, the remainder of the characters will remain disabled until you either free up a slot (by deleting a character) or by purchasing additional slots.
    Doesn't sound too bad. Would you make sure to have a thread up with specific instructions for players to learn how to back up their characters pref folders and how to restore such prefs on an "activated" toon? (since the old CharID may be different from the original after the migration)

    Also, would you consider (for a limited time ofc) allowing the move of characters between accounts (under a master account) so this would give players with more than one account a chance to organize their toons better?

    Yes, please ... full instructions in advance regarding saving pref-folders, etc. and the opportunity to "activate" a toon from any of our merged/linked accounts to a given account. If we must pick and choose which toons survive the server migration it would be nice to have this flexibility.

    That would be fabulous, I'd like to get my everyday toons on one monthly subscription and my once a month toons on a seperate subscription.

    Any further information on this? Or, do we have to wait until 18.6 makes it to the Live server because of the chacter slot number impacting our billing info? Or, decisions are still pending?

    Any consideration being given to a few free "account transfers" so we can balance out our accounts? This has been asked in a number of threads by multiple people, not just me ...

    So we had 24 slots 8 on each server overtime. One shutdown we got 16 another down now we have 8. I assume a few extra free means 24 + a few?

    Plz plz Vhab , if you read this , make the Veteran Point being a possible way to acquire those slot !!
    Veteran Point have no use, this is an issue. im paying since 2002 this game and it's really annoying to not have something valuable due to my loyalty.
    VP transfer to FC point by example..
    "Telemak" : 215 Soldier // "Anogineer" : 210 Engineer // "Abdominaux" : 199 Enforcer // "Doctordre" : 182 Doctor // "Zzzzzioon" : 174 Fixer // "Pandantatete" : 170 Agent // "Kickndie" : 150 Martial Artist // "Notoriouss" : 149 Martial Artist // "Xzibeat" : 150 Nano Technician // "Ilovefarming" : 128 Agent // "Rabijuice" : 75 Keeper // "Zzzengy" : 60 Engineer // "Shanasha" : 55 Soldier // "Abdominus" : 46 Enforcer

    It is "after the server merge" now (for almost a month), I'm (still) a subscriber and I don't have more than eight slots. Why, Funcom, why ?
    No further significant work is expected to be done on this project going forward.
