Look buddy, you can't keep everything. It's a fact of life. Deal with it. If Anet gives us twice as much storage space, we'll be hoarding twice as much stuff, and still have the same problem. Life's all about making decisions and management... surely you can call upon some of those skills?
It's like trying to get rid of debt by borrowing more money. It's only a temporary solution. If you don't get rid of your bad habits, you'll just be making the problem worse.

Boy are you wrong.
The key situation is getting out of hand. On any given character I can have up to half a dozen different key sets.
Canthan Keys. Kurzick Keys. Phantom Keys. Obsidian Keys. Miner Keys. Shiverpeak Keys. Keys for the "elite missions" (forgot what they were called, too lazy to go check).
And what are we going to do a year from now with 2 more expansion (cough standalone cough) chapters, each with about 6-8 new key sets?
The problem is, you don't know how many keys you'll need in a mission. I also don't know day to day where I will be playing. I could be doing THK one day, the next I'll be doing an elite mission. The next day maybe some skill capping in Arborstone. Or making a UW run. I always like to keep at least 2-3 keys on my character just in case I'm doing something unexpected and don't think about buying a key.
It wouldn't be nearly as bad if the traders didn't make a 50% profit if you were to sell the keys back. And keys aren't like cfrating material, you're not gonna stand around in LA advertising "WTS Shiverpeak Keys".
It's a valid problem. At the very least, changing the key system to just a generic key would certainly help, or allow players to buy a "skeleton key" that unlocks all chests - perhaps having to spend 50K-100K for the key, but then never having to buy another key again.
Also, some folks don't appreciate being told "deal with it" - they have every right to complain. If you don't like their complaints, don't read them. At the very least, bring something more constructive to the table than a subtle "STFU".
