Yeah, we've talked about the shared bank pages thing a bunch in the past too, and it seems that a lot of people have been slowly coming around on the idea. We've now been given 2 additional bank pages for members in the next heave, and it makes some sense that since we're going to be able to keep more stuff in general that we should be able to move it around more easily.

I don't really think there is any harm in having shared bank pages between toons anymore, as it is very limited in the amount of actual "damage" it can really cause. I know the issue before in part was about the rarity of items and such, but who DOESNT have a mule now and/or switch stuff between chars - it's silly not to.

As it stands already, settings are carried over when you switch to alts, so whats the big deal with carrying over say, bank page 3 to all your chars.

A LOT of noobs ask about how to move items between chars all the time and say they can do it in the other games they play. I can't say I wouldn't mind not having to drop, log out, log in, then run and pick up my stuff to trade between chars on the same account.

I agree that there should be some sort of same-account bank page sharing of a sort.

Well how about giving free players the 2nd page for all the characters and the 1st for the character were laying only?

That makes free players less likely to become members. DR staff wants more members, because more mems = more $$$.

Well maybe they could add 2 more pages for members so members have 5 bank pages and non-m,embers 2 bank pages

They are already adding pages for members. As for transfering items, I think it should be a member only function

My thinking about the extra bank space is we will need it when crafting comes out. There is a reason for everything and this just seems logical.

Depends on the Crafting system a bit, but I think it would be cool, if the case is that we have to gather Crafting Materials, that a bank special for crafting materials only would be a cool idea. With the 2 bank pages we get in this heave, and my only lvl 50+ is LegendRunner, I already got 2 bank pages specially for LR, and can use the other 3 on any other char, which solves a fair bit of my storage problem.

it's actually quite easy... main account logged in, then i generally minimize it so i can log onto my second account, window both of them, group and trade what i need to move to my secondary account, log off the main and relog with who's getting the stuff, invite to group with secondary, trade and done:)...

which that's fairly simple actions:) running an instance while logged to both accounts....whole nother story:)

Its not anything special. A lot of people including myself dont have mule accounts so we do "self-trading" the old, pre-trading system way that Ive explained a few times here in spotty fashion, lol.

Only reason I said it was silly not to is because when youre running two chars, your chances of getting items you want for either/or has just doubled as long as you trade in between the two. Honestly, I try to find a "fence" friend, trade and switch toons and have them give it to my other one. But, I do consistently go to another Townston (T2, 3, whatever) and go to a chosen, off the path spot, drop the item(s) I want to trade between my chars, log out, log in, and go run and pick it up. Takes me about 10-15 secs, and Ive done it a hundred times at least (not exxagerating) and never gotten ninja'd. That's all, no big deal. Now my "secret" is out!
