Trading Characters for multiplayer games

I am working on a site to trade characters with others online to play in multiplayer games. In otherwords, you send them to me, I'll post them and others will be able to play your characters in multiplayer games online.

My question does anyone agree with me that this is a good idea? If so, why?

Does anyone think this is a bad idea? If so, why?

Would really appreciate the feedback to know if I'm wastin time here?

I think it would be a great idea. Why.......well to experience what others have created, as well as just the idea. Another reason is because i am your cousin (hehe) and am the website designer. So we would really apreciate your replys and comments good or bad will be suitable. No matter what enjoy your game play.........

It seems OK in theory, but aren't you going to run into problems with uneven charaters generated either through solo playing (so they have received all of the stat boosts and all of the good "stuff") and also characters altered with software like Black Adder or POREdit? I guess people can just not borrow super tanks if they don't want to. As an aside, I doubt that I would take advantage of it, because the coolest thing about this game in my opinion is crafting your character from start to finish as an evolution. There isn't enough (read, any) role playing or even intial character creation to catch my interest otherwise, so figuring out who gets what in the way of stats and items and how to develop characters by adding levels is about it for this game. (And figuring out how to avoid getting slammed into Windows every 3 minutes, but that will never happen.)

Interesting idea, I would like to know the address of this website. When will it be ready? I'm not really interested in 'super' characters, but trading...interesting.

Great idea. But you should definately designate which characters were done using generators and which were actually played through and got everything naturally. I'm running a solo game with a Half-Elf Paladin/Monk and she's lvl 8/2 and I'm in the Deep Halls. If I ever get this character maxed I'll definately give it to you, and I'd love to see what everyone else has come up with.
