(tl;dr: merge an alt to a main to have all assets, SP and isk on one character)
Here's background info first. I have two characters in Dust my main San 27 and my alt San 91. San 91 was used regularly at the beginning of open beta due too low amounts of SP and the fact that I've always liked to go tanking every now and then. This means that San 91 has many assets aswell as BPO's of his own, which nowadays don't get too see the light of day as I don't use him very often now that I have 10 million SP on my main.
I'm sure many people have alts that are in the same situation as mine, so how about adding the ability for characters on the same account too be merged into one so that all assets, isk, SP and stats are on the same character.
So far I've thought of only one problem with such merges. That is SP, say I've got SP dedicated to the HMG operation skill on both characters, San 27 has the skill to level 5 and San 91 has level 1. What would happen to the 12 odd thousand SP that was granted to level 1, would it simply disappear into the void or would it be added onto my current unallocated SP pool. Which some may see as an exploit and/or cheat for what ever reason they choose.
One last thing, in order too prevent people creating new characters just so that they may merge with their main and gain 500 000 SP and 250 00 isk for free. I'd suggest a tax on the character that is to be merged with the least amount of SP and isk, lets say 500 000 SP and 250 000 isk ;)
If anyone has questions or further ideas please comment and lets get CCP's true attention |

I'm honestly not that bother with the sp transfer, I just thought that this would be an easy tool to implement whilst CCP figure out all the kinks for the highly complicated player trading market |

Blatent boosting with no rink to your presious proto junk or you kd ratio or whatever else you care about. Not saying you will do it but others will period, I mean .
There is a simple solution too these problems which is, the merge only adds items to one character. No sp, isk or stats merged. I only really want such a feature so that my main can have the vehicle and shinweave BPO's that are on my alt, added sp and isk would merely be a bonus for my main. But as you said people would exploit for stats and farming |
