Dead serious question: Does Test count as a server, or do vet rewards repeat on it?

Saber Maid (BS/Regen)
and others...
Thanks for the slots and character re-organization!
But please as Amazing Moo said in the other thread, lose the green dollar sign, please...
I REALLY don't want to see that every time I log in, it gives the game a free-to-play feel, ugh. Please find something other than the dollar sign for the purchase options.
Other than that , it's all good stuff.

That...is awesome.
Next question...for those of us with two accounts right now be able to pull characters from one to the other if we can verify all the details on the accounts? That would make it perfect

While I find that thoroughly amusing, I am mostly waiting to hear the cries about how new customers are getting screwed over by vet rewards.

Itsy Bitsy Slicer - Lvl 50 Kat/Reg Scrapper on Guardian
Flying-Tiger - Lvl 32 Sonic/Energy Blaster on Guardian
This announcement is composed of 90% win and 10% awesome.
That is all.
That blue thing running around saying "Cookies are sometimes food" is Praetorian Cookie Monster!
Shoot on sight, please.
Honestly I think the two free slots are actually overkill on the fairness meter..but I'll take them! All the easier to get 36 slots with
Classic Dungeon Crawl Arc ID: 2232-"A satirical look at your average dungeon"
Down the Rabbit Hole Arc IDs: 24346 24397-"Rescue a little girl from an insidious dream invader."

My hope is that like character transfer and rename, that slot purchase will be free for a time on test.

That is an interesting question. How do extra slots work on Test in general?

Posi, any thoughts for the serious altoholics among us, how about a bigger package of new slots.
I play on all servers, and have about 10-15 free slots period. I play in strong SG/VGs on Freedom, Infinity, Protector, Pinnacle, Virtue, Victory and Triumph and would love to get more slots on all of these.
A package of say 30 slots for $70, or 6 slots on every server for $? would attract me more. 5 at a time it gets seriously expensive quite quickly.
It's true. This game is NOT rocket surgery. - BillZBubba
Thank you for the balanced approach of doing this.

omg...best news i've heard today!!!
now if i could just move characters from my first account to the second, life would be really sweet .
Trust me you don't want the pony, he bites. Not to mention the giant amounts of dung that you have to clean up! Dang why did I ask for a Pony! All I wanted was free slots! 
Flippin fantastic! AND we get to rearrange our character order now? This is the awesomesauce.
Edit: I said awesomesauce in my 1500th post. Sweet.
@Bengal Fist - Freedom - Authority SG
Bengal Fist (SS/EA) - Thirt3en (Time/Elec) - Aussi (Elec/Shield) - Potamoi (Water/Time) - Parkr (Staff/Ela)
Very cool on the freebies!!!!
Be well, people of CoH.
Ooooh, I feel lightheaded and giddy. I12 and additional character slots together? This is too much goodness for one release but I'll be brave and handle this much lovely sticky sweet update excellence like a man (or maybe at least like a hamster on 'roids ).
Wow. Way to go. Thanks Positron and NCNC.

We're sorry. Due to the lack of adequate marketing, user patience has died 90+ days ago. Please try again sans "Soon."

Amazing. Just for that, I can't wait for I12.

Nice job NCNC. Everyone gets a little something for free, the vets get retroactive goodness (between my vet rewards and the 2 free slots I just saved $20), very reasonable pricing for addn'l slots for those that need them, we actually get the slots with I12 (when we need them the most) and a top-limit on slots that should make anyone happy... for a few months. 
You'll be getting my $20 on day one. 6 new slots on my 2 main servers should hold me for a lil bit.
Well, that sounds pretty good to me. I'm glad we get a few freebies, and I think extra slots are the sort of thing the Veteran's Rewards should give. [EDIT: And I should add I'm glad they're retroactive; no one would want to wait 4 years for a free slot!] The price points for buying additional slots seem a bit too high for my taste, but then I doubt I'm the primary demographic for this system anyway.
I am very happy to see the ability to reorganize our characters. I've wanted that for ages. One question, though: is it possible to move a character from one "page" of characters to a different page? I cannot test this myself, but it doesn't seem like the drag and drop system will allow that.
Anyway, my concerns are minor. Good work on this!
