The Cataclysm Classic Pre-Expansion Patch Arrives 1 May
Mount Up for the Northrend Cup!
Developer Thoughts - Plunderstorm Game Mode and Feedback

For us who have multiple 90 classes which we don't enjoy playing anymore, bliz should add a feature allowing us to perm-terminate a lvl 90 character. For each 90 you terminate you can get a month of free play time.
edit:
To those who were asking about the logic behind this and difference between "termination" vs deletion,
I have deleted all my characters in TBC once, after WOTLK launched I called blizzard and have them restored. All of the characters (6 70s iirc), after like half a year, free of charge. Yes, you heard it right. So character deletion means squat, they still save all the information on the server. This perm-termination will be non-reversible and thus can free up bliz server space in exchange we get some free play time.
I understand one month free play time is a little too much, how about 10 days? And it has a once every months cooldown per account.

Buying 90s are OK, how about killing 90s for monthly subscription fee?

Why not? It's not like they could come up with an even more idiotic idea at this point.

That was my face hitting the keyboard.
It takes 2 - 4 played days max with Full Heirlooms to reach level 90, Faster being boosted buy guild members.
/rolls tank, Uses full looms, powers to 90. deletes character get's free month.
rinse repeat as needed.
No, Will not happen.

I would like an eve type system where you can trade tons of isk for game time, not only would it encourage people to play more consistently, it would make players happier...

Sell 1 month of game time for 100k gold.
You can make 100k in a month if you try hard for it. It also works as a fat gold sink. Originally Posted by Shalcker

What is the logic behind that? What does Blizzard gain from you deleting a character?

What you're saying is that Blizz is a corporation and not a charity work? Originally Posted by Hysteria

Um, I meant Blizzard do it. As the OP of the thread was suggesting ways to obtain game time via alternative means than just paying for it. Rather than terminate a 90, sell game time at £8.99 a month or 100k a month. Originally Posted by vindicatorx

The idea is blizzard sells the game time to help remove gold from the economy. Obviously wont happen. Originally Posted by vindicatorx
