What do you mean? It's there, there's a little arrow that you press and you see a 6th character slot... they never said it'd actually do anything though!

Re: 6th Character Slot from beta Test - ummm where is it? O.o
Yes I've been wondering about this 6th char slot for a while now. The functionality to view a sixth char is there, and I know that at least one person has 6 chars from some point. So, put simplistically, having little idea of how the game works in the back end, it seems someone just needs to put a script together to compare the account names from the beta and the current server, check if a character on the beta got over level 100 and then increment the number of characters for that account on live.

What remains is for the Admins/Devs to write a script so that everyone that played during beta (and reached level 100) and has the exact same username now as they did then, will receive the option to make a 6th character on that account.
But as long as new content is made to keep players happy, then Jey and HAL will still be busy with killing bugs, and I am far from sure if anyone else is able to write this code.

Then we should make it simple for Jeffie.
Stop all player feedback until the promised slots are added to the game.

Admins should've saved themselves some trouble and offered imp chests instead of another char.

The ball was completely dropped on this and there is no one to blame but me. I stopped hounding them a while back, and other more pressing bugs took priority. I will do everything I can to get these 6th char slots out to those who played.

Re: 6th Character Slot from beta Test - ummm where is it? O.o
Last time I talked to Jey, then he told me it takes him about an hour to write down a description of how to write the script for this - then Jeff/HAL can write the script. I understand that it is hard at times with the constant overlooking of the server, but we are talking about one hour - maybe half a day or a day of the Admin/Dev panel getting together and getting it done swiftly. Would be a nice compensation for the current issues lately.

Re: 6th Character Slot from beta Test - ummm where is it? O.o
Actually, I'm pretty sure jey said that because he'd need to tell Jeff/HAL what to do, it would probably just be easier for him to write the script himself, and that it would only take an hour or so for him to do so. Jey understandably has a long list of things to do, but yeah, for the sake of an hours work, he can save himself being asked again and again for weeks on end by, ahem, random players.
