Bank Space - what's the problem?

#0 - Nov. 24, 2008, 9:59 a.m.

I have run out of space in my bank again and it's causing my stress. Would someone please care to explain the reasoning behind the fact that we can't have a bit more space?

I've played since release and have 79 epic quality items of various levels that took me a very long time to accumulate, plus other items from quests, one time world events and holiday events. Take some of the BWL and AQ40 tier items, we spent weeks and weeks learning those encounters just as a lot of people did.

I have fond memories of outbidding other party members for some of that gear and being passed the items from raid leaders. Some of those people are no longer with us and only exist in memories. I look around my bank with great fondness and sometimes put on the old gear for nostalgia.

There items from epic quests that can't be done again. I don't want to sell these items for 2g, they're worth a lot more that that to me in sentimental value.

I spent a lot of time in TBC making 20 slot bags for a bit more space, so that option is out the question. Why should it even have to be an option?

Why can't I keep my old gear? Why must I be forced to sell it?

I have alts with banks full of materials and other things, and then also I have some alts with absolutely empty banks. But my main's bank is completely full. There's 20 slot bags in every bank slot, yet still I have to make some kind of sacrifice each time I want to move something out of my bags and into my bank.

It definitely can be hard to lose old gear, especially when you worked so hard to achieve it -- or if you love the way you look wearing it. I have this cool shoulder item that I had wanted for so long (can't tell you which because that'd reveal my class and you'd think me biased from that point on...) -- I love the shoulders so much, even though I have nicer ones now I still don't want to lose the old ones. So they, and a load of other things I want to keep, are keeping my bank full to the brim.

I guess I really need to go through all that stuff and decide whether I really need it. Who really needs to get to the Inner part of Maraudon these days? :) Who really needs to summon Archmage Vargoth again? It's always the same response I get too, "You never know. Keep it for now and decide later." ;-)
