So that is a hell of a lot of alt characters. Technically however it is against the EULA to have more than one person using the same account. Well regardless enjoy... I love WoW and don't let the haters get ya down. DM: From the deepest crypts crawls the undead thread, it's death rattle shakes you to your core.

But if your starting a new character you won't need macros for ages |

Edit: also, multiple people on an account can be a nightmare for guilds too. We've had a few people say 'but I didn't take that from the guild bank, my brother must have been playing'. We tend to give a warning and explain to them they need to get their bro an account or change their password, as if it happens again we can't afford to leave ourselves open to abuse, even if the original guild member is innocent (knowing that it could all just be an excuse anyway). |

I'd get to level 15 with a warrior, then decide I wanted a paladin, get to level 16, decide I want a priest... We're nothing like God. Not only do we have limited powers, but sometimes we're driven to become the devil himself.-Nicholas D. Wolfwood, Trigun |

can you have multiple characters on one account? and if you can, does it add to the monthly fee? i dont actually own WoW but my sis' boyfriend does and i want to create a character on his account instead of messing with his...you know the whole "why did you do that? i dont want that spell wtf?" situations? i'd like to avoid that.
