Exclamation Character item transfer

Hello friends.As we dont have any character race change option or any type of token that does that I have a new idea.
This is character item transfer option that can be added to our account pannels.With this we can transfer all our items of one character to another character.
To prevent people doing tat again n again we can put some restrictions...

1.These items can only be transfered to the character of the same faction.
2.This can be done only once.

and blah blah..
Hope u guys like this...

Wrong place but yeah I dont think this would be a bad idea, though I don't know the technical feasibility of it...

The only difficult think is transfer of items that are souldbound.Cmon...I am also sayin that to prevent players for doin tat agn n agn we can restrict this option to a character 1 time only.I mean tat he can transfer on 1nce in hiz life.

Soulbound wouldn't matter the way I see it. All you would REALLY have to do is mark all of the item IDs and their quantities that are in the characters inventory, equipped, held in their bank, the bags they have on and the bags in their bank also perhaps the mounts/pets they have if possible. Then it would delete all of them off of the first character and have the server mail them to the second character. Thats how I would see the process working if at all possible.

There wouldn't be a need to limit it either as I don't see a way to abuse this given 2 restrictions as follows;

Both characters are on the same account because if it wasn't they could easily transfer donor items to another character and say "my donor items disappeared I want them back!" and then whamo cheap friend with donor clones... not good.

Both Characters are the same class this prevents the person from trying to change class to recustomize donor items onto a new toon which isn't supposed to be done.

It would be a lot of work for something very impractical. What purpose do yo really NEED this for? I think the dev's time could be spent much better on other things.

Also I can see this getting abused.....

I have exactly the same question. As it is same account, same faction, what can be gained to warrant a - what I think would be a huge effort - coding for this kind of operation?
Can you give examples to explain please?

To be honest, as nice as the first thought of "freely distribute your items etc. amongst your chars in your account" sounds, the more I personally think it would take out the "work for your gear" task which is one of the main aspects when you level your char up.
You can level up chars on this server so fast and with the vote shop get items almost as fast so adding extra work on our already stressed developers for something that is not really "needed" seems to be inappropriate at this stage where (I think) they have all hands full to get us 3.3 ready and fix what still needs to be fixed.
But, as I always say, these are my thoughts only

I have two warriors on one account, my main toon have 2 Voldrethars, which I bought for $ 15 each last year. Now I would love to transfer my Voldrethars to my second warrior and get custom weapons for my main warrior. I dont want to buy for my second warr as our country exchange rate is so low against the dollar. To expensive to buy for both toons. Could it be done?

certainly not the CI team, we have nothing to do with that who gets what and where it can go and all of that. We just make the custom items and make sure they conform to the rules. They'd have to PM Blackswann I think...
