In other forms of rp, I'm all for character death, even if I'm totaly happy with the character. If the story calls for it, if it seems like it'll make a strong contribution to the overall tale, then sure. In mmo, its a bit trickier, as there are countless pve hours to factor in. Do I *really* want to start from scratch again in leveling?
If I'm fantasiaing a character (I'm one of those people who think this should definitely be an ooc mechanic) I ask myself: 'would it be completely arbitrary to kill my character off to make room for this new one, or would it make more sense to simply retire them'
Then I act accordingly.
