Something is wrong with that picture. I am paying for the game and the game consists of 7 schools, not 6. I should be able top have 7 wizards then...And not cause me to have to create a new membership or delete one of my wizards to put in the 7th.
Re: Why is there 7 Schools and I can only create 6?
I heard this from someone but I don't remember from where and who and that is: Originally KI thought 6 would be enough and didn't expect people to want to play through 7 schools but don't quote me on that. It had nothing to do with money. As time went by and more MMO games are coming around with more than 6 characters to choose from, I think it's time for Kingsisle to take a step further and add 1 or 2 more character slots to stay ahead of the competition.
Re: Why is there 7 Schools and I can only create 6?
There is nothing wrong with asking for a 7th (or more) wizard slots but it is not helpful to demand it or see ourselves as somehow entitled to it.
We do pay for the game, but that does not mean we are entitled to 7 slots. There were never 7 slots and nothing has been taken from us. They could have made it so accounts could only hold 3 or 4 wizards and I'd hazard a guess that most if not all of us would still have paid to play.
If it was a financial decision it could have been partly to entice players to create a second account but it could also have been to do with the additional costs of data storage and keeping the membership price low, while suitably profitable.
I don't know why there are enough slots for all but one school but I do know a lot of people who have made second accounts to experience their missing school because they want a full set.
Before we say we are paying for this therefore we are entitled to more than the initial agreement we should first ask ourselves if we would be willing to pay double for everything for that entitlement?
There is nothing wrong with asking for more, but demanding or arguing that we are rightfully entitled to it when we are not is counter-productive to what we would like to be GIVEN.
That said, I'd love to see more wizard slots open up on our accounts and I think it would make a lot of wizards very happy

Who is demanding a 7th character slot? Demanding is when someone say the word such as. I demand you or I order you etc... and no one is doing that here. Suggesting your interest or encouraging is not demanding. Ki never said not adding more slots was about money. Money was never a big enough issue to limit 6 character slots. and no one can possibly know it was a financial decision and allow to share that information except Kingsisle. If I'm wrong, where did they specifically say that?

The original post reads:
"Why is there 7 schools and I can only create 6? Something is wrong with that picture. I am paying for the game and the game consists of 7 schools, not 6. I should be able top have 7 wizards then...And not cause me to have to create a new membership or delete one of my wizards to put in the 7th."
Perhaps that does not read a little entitled to you, but to me it does.

Yes I read Cooler1179's postI understand what that player is trying to say and I see nothing wrong with it according to how life in the real world can really demand . Maybe it's his or her way expressing by saying: I would like a 7th character slot without spending more money than I need to? If you feel that's too demanding for your taste, How do you feel Cooler1179 should have said it and perhaps personally tell that player that? As you said, perhaps you and I have different meaning what demanding is and so does everyone else

Perhaps it is the curse of us having to interpret tone when reading text. My post was in response to the tone I heard when reading the post and I accept that I may have misheard the tone intended. I don't think we have the right to a 7th character slot but I agree it would be cool if KI decided to expand our accounts to accommodate it
In response to your question 'How do you feel Cooler1179 should have said it...?' I accept we can all say things how we want to but if I were asking for a 7th character slot I wouldn't say I have paid for it when there have only ever been 6 slots. I wouldn't suggest KI is giving us a raw deal by only allowing us 6 characters per account. I'd choose to focus on what a great deal it would be and how much it would be appreciated if they chose to extend the accounts to accommodate playing all 7 schools
Just to clarify, my opinion that the post could come across as entitled was firmly about the post and not the poster! Everything I have said has been about the wording of the post and I hold no negative opinion about Cooler1179
Re: Why is there 7 Schools and I can only create 6?
I think it is because you don’t really need all 7. Also they made a whole amazing game with amazing graphics and everything and here you are asking for a seventh slot. If you want an idea on how to get all 7 finish the game with at least one of your wizards and then delete it. Just giving advice
