4+ Character Slots/House-dogs

As this website gets older and people have been here longer, it seems people have already hit their max 3 characters a while ago. How many do you think would be fair for character slots if we amended it, and how much should it cost?

Additionally, Featherpaw made the suggestion that House-dog character slots be cheaper (I was thinking around 150) and maybe we can increase the amount of slots possible so people are less conservative with that and more willing to buy a dog slot?

Does anyone have any suggestions or possible answers to the questions above?

Good idea, Shadestar.

Love the idea. I would pay for a fourth slot for a house dog.

Me too, hartford is lonely.

I would definatly pay for another character.

WOO HOO
4 characters this will be epic xD

I think it would be a good idea for the House-Dog slots to be less than for a Clan wolf, since it may encourage people to make one instead. I would buy another character slot; I think that the adding of an extra slot was a good idea as well.


For how many character slots would be allowed to be purchased, four is a good amount, I think. If there were a seperate, extra slot besides the four which could be used only to make a House-Dog, it may increase the amount of those willing to roleplay a House-Dog, though I'm not quite sure that would be a good idea (since then there could be a lot of characters).

That would make sense.
Like you can have 3 or four wolves
And 1 house-dog slot

( I don't know if you already do this but) Well, what if we could have an unlimited amount of characters, but the price would go up 200 crystals everytime you bought one. For example, lets say you bought a character that was 200 crystals. Then you bought another one, so that one would cost 400 crystals. Then 600, then 800 and so on.

But what if they bought it then they forget to use it. That would be to many accounts to take care of.

Hmm, good point, good point...

Well it is technically buyers beware if they do it, since it is their responsibility to take care of so many wolves. But also I don't know if it should be unlimited because still we need active wolves in Clans.

I think having a limit is good. I mean, if someone makes 15 characters, it would be impossible to keep up with all of them.

Even if there weren't a limit, or in other words there was an unlimited amount of characters, I don't think someone would easily be able to make several or too many characters since usually it takes time to get crystals. If they kept paying 800, 1,000, and so on, they would need to roleplay for months (most likely) before they earned 1,200 crystals, etc. Though, if they did have a lot of characters, they might be inactive on some; for example, if they had 8 characters, a few might not get roleplayed quite as often than had they had two or three characters. It is their own choice to make a lot of characters, like Shadestar said; since they would need to have responsibility to roleplay so many. I still don't think someone could easily get a large amount of characters though, even if they roleplayed a lot.


I don't think that having the amount of characters one can make being unlimited is necessarily a bad thing, since it is someone's choice to have a lot of characters, and it would take a lot of crystals and roleplaying to get to a point where they could have plenty of characters. Having a limit is good as well, though; such as what Featherpaw said with someone having too many characters, which might happen eventually had there been no limit. It's probably true that there would be more active wolves with a limit also, since then people couldn't have too many or so characters and not be able to roleplay them all.

Limit is good,but people with a good responsibility should be able to have more than one. If someone isn't then,maybe....i forgot -.-

I mean, I have four characters, one won from the Raffle, and I'm having trouble keeping up with all of them. So think if someone who didn't know what they we're getting into had a nice stack of crystals and decided to buy a bunch of new characters. That would cause some pretty bad inactivity.

I know this topic is a bit old, though I think it would still be alright to post on it.

I think that it would be good to have a limit at the moment, even though I don't think an unlimited amount of characters would be a problem. For the limit, though, I think it may be better for it to be five characters? It may encourage members to adopt more characters or make a House-Dog, since they would still be able to have four other characters. It's not that high of a number that one would have too many characters, and would take a while to get to for those with only their main character. I think that the current limit is good also, though five may be better when it comes to adopting more characters/pups, or house-dogs; it wouldn't be good if there were an entire litter with only a few pups chosen rather than most pups.

Ture Gray. But I think maybe we should have at least a week limit before purchasing or adopting another character, just so people don't go over their heads and make two or three characters in a day and get overloaded.

I think that could be a good idea, Feather. It would be really hard to roleplay two or three new characters in just one day; it's easier if that happens over time. Perhaps for making characters there could be a week limit, and less for adopting a character to encourage that?

I think we should have a limit,but i want more characters.
But the day limit is smart.
So i agree with gray

I do too. It would be nice, but 1,000 crystals for a 5th character slot in another clan? No!

True,maybe... Umm just.
800? Or less.
Oo i know,make it 200 so you can just climb up again.
Or if people are really active :/

I think that could be a problem with having to pay 1,000 crystals for a fifth character slot for another Clan, and if there were ever a chance that more character slots were added, it would be a really large amount. It could be 650 or 700 for the actual slot, or 850 or 900 for a character slot in a different Clan.

For it restarting at 200, while that could work I'm not sure if that would work well if someone already had several characters, since then they could have plenty of extra crystals and easily buy a new slot.

Basing it on activity like Hawkpool said, or perhaps even on post count could be another idea, though I don't think my post count idea would work well really.

Oh wait,i have an idea (lightbulb)
So,how many posts depends on how many characters they may have
How's that?
If they have a thousand,umm 5 i guess(just throwing ideas out there)
And umm,just add up all the posts on all accounts for one person
So you can still maintain a pretty active character co
Um with that rule
Unless they've been here a long time...

That could work, though I think it would work more if used for an additional character slot (a 5th one if it were added) rather then the for the second, third, or fourth character slot; since to get crystals would usually mean they'd need to post more, and that way it would be easier to earn another character if the next character slot were based on post count.
