If you're hitting the cap and want more alts, you can bypass it by buying another account. I myself have 3 although my brother uses 1 so I have the other two. I'm also on a connected realm (2 realms connected right now). Normally I'd have 32 characters as a result (soon 36), but I can have 64 (72) instead due to having multiple accounts.If you're after gold production with an alt army, buying a second account and maintaining it with tokens would be a minor task.Due to the ability to buy multiple accounts, Blizzard's not likely to raise the character cap unless we get to the point where we have so many allied races and can have 50 characters per realm. At that point Blizzard might consider raising the overall cap. But if there's money to be had by selling additional accounts to altoholics, Blizzard's less likely to do it.
Yes they did, I watched the Q& A when the question was posed, they will be increasing the account limit because they said, "We don't want people to have to delete characters to make allied race ones!" The point I was trying to make earlier but forgot to mention in my earlier reply is this, can we just stop bickering and just get along? It is only a game. This was also after they already increased the per realm limit from 12 to 16.
Hey look, a PTR update on the same day. Better go check on those Xorothian Cultists...
Maybe I'll have room for all the new druids I have to have.

At the rate they are going it will not be long before 50% of the total can be on one server. At some point soon when the server total increases the overall total should increase by the same amount.Interesting to see were this is going as at the moment it looks like this expansion will be mainly about new playable races, which I suspect will be to try and compensate for what may well be a weak expansion story .Alliance v Horde is always lame as an expansion story as whatever happens there ends up being balance plus these days I believe more people play both sides of the story. I certainly used to be all Alliance and while that is still my main allegiance I play plenty of horde characters as well.
Why not 50?
I hpoe we get warcraft version of Davi'Zhaar in pre-patch, but also doubt on that. Its makes me sad, couse i feel bored with class/race combinations we have already
With even more chars per realm I would love to see some work put into the character selection.Why do I only see 11 chars at once with a lot of space wasted between the entries of the list?Just change the display to only use two lines and half the space in between please.And before they added the option to have more than 12 chars I even had them displayed all at once without the need to scroll down.Unfortunately the character-selection screen can not be changed thru addons.And has not seen any changes since when? WotLK?
I just put a forum chat up on the WoW forums about the limit and how people are complaining here on WoWHead. Hope people will be willing to chat it up and hopefully get a blue tag on it.
Sell me a 50-slot-character-upgrade Blizz!
Before these 'changes', they already included a lot of kinds of pets hunters could tame, but never the stable limit, which is 'unbelievably' still at 50, when there are hundreds of families+colours and the like. And I don't see too much people concerned about this to the point Blizz would 'LISTEN' and make that simple change too. Now we're getting extended slots per realm, and we see all this complaining (not without reasons, but ). Make them know, please, that 50 character limit right now is foolish, as is the 50 slot limit for hunter stables -.-
plus its 14 year past every 2 expansişon they add raceswas 6-8 around old dayswith panda monk add so 11with dh turn 12keep adding new races and keep addinf new classes keep adding bla bla lvl if u want x achi or mounts.(like scret achi legdary campain) for mounts etc they add class mounts so class added toys or pet.so if u pet collector and not have dk that mean u wont have 3 pet some people did ton of time payed trasfer but 1-3 caracter they move .some raider like change 5-6 server at less then 10 year.didnt delete rest toons banks other alts.gold limit at past was so silly amount u didnt able move or delete even u want rest toons.like u had 900k gold u moved that server for raid played 1 year but guild disbaded u recuited another server guild.even u had single cracter thr people open bank alt so able hold gold becouse of cant trasfer gold that much not even closeeeeesome people didnt like pay rare or never pay serverwhen they wana play new server they start thereanyway bla bla u playing 50 caracter valid questison for 5 year gamebut when u play almost non stop 14 year 40+ caracter pretty much posible.and add 50 to 55 or 60 limit wont change anything .chaning on server limit no goodif someone abuse system etc yes they have multple account much easier 2-3 account at do 1 quest get 3 rewarded etc xp and gold wise.but some causal players even without much playing gir 40-50 around 3 type player at wowa)so rare play only single caracter over 10 year i know some people they not even open alts or banks play with single too pretty rare some sitck the main people even open some bank or 1-2 alt toonb)playing lot of caracter they play few month some then change it not have %100 main specially after account wide colections and achis.moslty collector farmers etc they moslty stick 1 server like right now had 12 class 110.this kind player small amount gos diffrent server and play those places too for colecting items or play with pals or oppside fraction.they not have limit problem they moslty around 20-30 caracter arroundc) another rare case but not as much single caracter guys like player several server have ton of time.used lot of alts for farm some holiday events like love at air boss rocket for(took me 5-6 year drop at wod)they have ton of bank caracter with 4-5 tab full guild banks.some bank caracter even 90-110 high lvl they are around 40-50 caracterall argument agaist to raide at least 5-10 slot is invalid.no server issue no problem at alllot of people around i talk give ton of break start around cata or panda they have less caracter they not play mucheven at vannilla i had 3-4 lvl 60 wihch was hard becouse of at the time mounts was expsniver and didnt decide will play or not one of my toon didnt even had horse %100 mount that time cost if u exalted 900g wihch is huge.so kind who polayed since vannila for its easy task like at vannila didnt play much lvl 10-15 bank toon at cata turn 30 at panda 70-80 at wod 100just do some holiday even play yearly 2-3 day still u lvl up max llvl overall 10+ year6-8 new race add but not give any slotand probably at next expansion we will get another new class maybeso what 10 year later will have 50 limit.we paying per month 13 euro this isnt expeisve invesment like 10 year agos all server payed even with tecnician and gm.and we still contiou paying they keep adding new classes new races but account limit still same.this isnt right.
