Random Idea: Account Tradeins

[Splorf22]

Rough idea: a GM will permanently delete your character in return for:

L50+ toon: change starting stats on another character of your choice
L55+ toon: guise of the deceiver on another character of your choice
L60+ toon: change starting stats and an illusion mask of your choice
L60+ toon w/epic: 1/4 chance at a prenerf fungus staff

Notes: you'd have to require eqemu or people would be sacrificing guild trackers left and right. I think it's probably better to have it as a one time thing, but it could be a continuous policy. Potentially it could also be extended to items, i.e. a fungi tunic is equivalent to a 55+ toon or something.

The main goal would be to trim the huge arsenal of players/items that have accumulated over the 3 years since Kunark came out. Right now its not that rare to see people with entire armies of toons (Treats is in the lead with 10 I believe). Removing some of them helps the raiding scene (less camping out, fewer toons clamoring for epics etc) while also giving people something to do before Velious (releveling/gearing the army, or even making new characters for the express purpose of trying to get a fungus staff or illusion mask or whatnot).
