right, so as we all know, the chars per account are limited to 5.

Is it server sided or actually a hard coded barrier?

Because, if it was server-sided, I'd question the sense since everybody uses multiple accounts anyway =/

It is coded like the player limit was. Very hard to change, and would cause untold bug's. Easier to make more account's.

actually in my limited playing around with Ironcross I found a box that was checked and said "limit each player account to 5 characters" or something like that. I can only assume that the admins left it checked in order to control the character database.

I was under the impression that the 5 character limit listed in Ioncross is because someone found a bug with more than 5 characters per account. But this is just speculation on my part. I can also see it being set that way for the same reasons mwerte said. It does make you wonder, though.

Also, sorry for bringing this back from two weeks ago.

More than 5 can cause issues. Bad issues.

There is nothing bad about it, with FLAM you can just have a shortcut for each account, and I like that. It lets me keep characters organized in nice little groupings. :)

yeh, you can get more than 5 chars per account, but its buggy and i would rather keep it unbugged and having 5 chars per account, it lets me organise my chars easier:D
