I just read a thread stating that there are 2 many items for your storage etc.
People stated that a 2nd account was the answer, now for my question. If you're going to buy Chapter 2, will that be your 2nd account? Or will it connect to your CD Key from Chapter 1?

And what do you guys think about it? Should it be a seperate account or what?

I wounder why you would start a 2nd just for the storage when you can make up to 4 other characters and buy bags with holding runes and keep stuff on them. Thats what I do and I play 2 toons all the time so my other 2 are just storage.
But I think if you did buy a 2nd account then you would have to buy 2 2nd chapters.. IMO... LMD

lots of possibilities there.

i have 2 accounts

collectors and regular.

as soon as i get my netwotk up i can trade between them (also info on site on running 2 accounts on same pc at same time on this site as well)

they may have chapter 2 as an add on key to an existing account they may provide it as an option to install separately.

nobody knows yet.

the only thing confirmed is that for every chapter 1 account that you wish to upgrade to chapter 2 will be a separate purchase.

2 accounts owned and upgraded to chapter 2 equals 2 purchases of chapter 2.

4 words: Halloween and Wintersday items.

They take up like half to whole of your storage.

True, but if you're an active PVP'er with PvP chars. Storage gets kinda hard.

well i really hope that when they make the 2.chapter they add more character spots to the old account so that u could have like 6 characters instead of 4 then you don't need to delete any old character to make place for the new professions too

that has already been confirmed by Gaile when she said

*you will not have to delete a beloved character with hundreds of hours on it to try a new profession*

I don't care how many new slots there will be. I'd prefer the option to merge accounts together to a larger one. This means merging two Guild Wars account to one (i.e. 8 slots) or 2 Factions accounts (4 slots) or one Guild Wars and one Factions account (6 slots). If this could be done repeatedly we'd have endless slots! In this way ANet could sell more accounts and we could merge our valuable characters from other accounts.

This has been answered long ago, no need to post in it.

You will have the choice of combining them or using them seporate.

However, using as second means you're starting over with the 2nd (no unlocks), and you'll need to make a whole other account (2nd email, etc).
