"Alts" primary purpose in the old times was to have characters of multiple jobs. In games with a single class per character that allowed people to play more than one class. In here you can have all the classes on any character so there is no practical point to alts.

And by the way, exploiting the game to add alts to friend list can get you banned. If for no other reason then because that more than doubles your inventory space. This game doesn't allow trading items to alts for a reason. Whether we agree with it or not is not the point. The point is that these people have practical advantage over those that do not exploit it.

Also, adding yourself to a friend list is anything but "a given". The tone in which you wrote that suggests otherwise. Quite frankly...it's a ridiculous notion. And exploiting the inventory space is literally the only reason for that...so there's the malicious intent.
I'm punished by paying more money for alts.

"But but you can just do everything on one character"

But I like having alts for a variety of reasons. Before you go on, I'm not complaining, it is what it is.

Old times are just that. Old. Modern games let you do all the above.

If everyone could trade between alts *poof* no more "advantage".

Everything else you said has nothing to do with the topic at hand. I don't condone exploits and never have.

My point was that folks went through extreme measures for a feature that other games have had for years.

Keep your passive aggressive tone to yourself
