Hey… I am HAPPY about the move by arena net and appreciate it , I just don’t think its the right one…
what about the people who bought standard + character slot to have for revenant?
they spent an extra 10$ for no reason now… or people that deleted lvl 80 chars to make
space for the new class?[my case..].
Not mention most of the ultimate/deluxe buyers probably have nothing to do with an additional slot…
I think this gesture should of been in Gems instead of a character slot.

The problem with that is, it could be damaging to the game’s economy if suddenly that many gems got turned into gold by too many players who decided that the gold was worth more than the character slot.

That was your choice to buy the character slot. You can use it later in the future if you choose. I personally see no reason to kitten about an extra free slot. As for deleting the characters, ArenaNet can and more than likely will be able to do rollbacks on characters. As I am also certain they can do rollbacks on gems if you really wanted.

That is a pretty stupid argument to be quite honest. People buy gems all the time it would hardly do anything granted i don’t think 800 gems would be the right way to go. Just more or less telling you your argument is bad.

Sorry but it’s not anyone’s fault but your own if you deleted your character to make room for a profession that is not yet released, heck, does not even have a set release date.

It’s like me expecting flood in next 10 years, moving all the stuff to the roof, and then complaining my life sucks cause all my stuff’s on the roof and there’s no flood today…

just to clarify I didn’t buy an extra slot… i deleted my lvl 80 2nd warrior..
and you are right it was people choice to buy an extra slot BUT the conditions changed… [bad example incoming just couldn’t think about anything else]
but its like buying a phone and pay for a case and then find out you get another case free.. you’d want to return that case wouldn’t you ?…

anyway since that’s not my case i don’t really care.. but you really think a rollback is possible?

I’m surprised anyone would delete a character to make room for one that can’t even be created for 3-5 months… but, whatever.

‘Elite’ in all 9 professions. I take mediocrity seriously!

Yep. Granted I am sure ArenaNet has their hands full at the moment but they probably would given you be patient about it.

I bought a new slot the moment HoT was announced and made a place holder character just to reserve the name for my revenant, it was my choice and mine alone…..

I will be getting the ultimate edition of HoT at the end of the week as well, I already have 9 slots, HoT will give me 2 more…..

You don’t hear me whining about having to many character slots !

Entitled much ?

Seriously now, you people just whine and whine and no matter what a.net does there is always some [censored] that feels what they did it’s not good enough.

Ugh, disgusting utterly disgusting.

A character slot doesn’t disrupt the gem exchange with wild gem to gold conversion releasing all that gold that’s been sequestered back into the economy.

We are heroes. This is what we do!

You made a very poor decision in deleting one of your chars way beforehand. Heck ,we don’t even have a release date!
But really you shouldn’t complain on the forum, this is stuff for a support ticket. Just don’t expect to have your character restored as it was your fault to begin with.

I pre-purchased GW2 Deluxe edition hoping for the best. It’s not GW and never will be, alas. I would like to see Guild Halls, but I’m not paying 44.99 for a guild hall. I don’t want another character slot. My husband has three unused character slots. Gems could swing it, maybe. It’s still 34.99 for a Guild Hall. Is it enough to bring me back playing regularly, if at all?

And this thing about having to buy the whole game every time you want an expansion is just rubbish too. I have spent plenty of gems on things I want, not on what ArenaNet thinks I should be getting.

kitten read b4 you kitten reply.. you like the word kitten i see
not an impatient decision.. just a decision made based on the FACTS OF THE TIME, which i still don’t regret… i just don’t think its Ethic to CHANGE A DEAL, for better or worse… AGAIN refer to my Phone purchase example in the post.. would you or would you not want a refund for that “case”… ?

also not being greedy.. i just said i don’t see how this is fair for people who bought deluxe/ultimate… for the fact they have 1 slot.. or for those who already bought a character slot + standard

geez…
Fill the character slot with a character, level him to ~23 and park him in a jumping puzzle.
The character slot will generate gold in the form of silver doubloons, which can then be exchanged for gems.
There is no such thing as having “too many character slots”…
