WoW accounts are the starting point for any World of Warcraft game. It is possible to start a new account or to buy an existing account.
Can you have more than one account?
Some playesr have been playing Horde on a particular server for awhile and would like to paly Alliance but do not want to delete all my hard workon their Horde character. Can they have another WoW account without having to delete their characters?
Yes, you can as it is not against the Terms of Service (TOS) or the End User License Agreement. Before you create a new account you will want tosee if you are on a PvE server and if you have enough character slots open to create a new account.
If you are playing on a PvE server and you have enough room to create another character you can have an Alliance character as well as a Hordecharacter on the same account. That really can come in handy and will probably help you get a total feeling of what it is like to play World ofWarcraft.
On the other hand, if you don't have enough room to create a new character on your PvE server or if you play on a PvP server you will have to geta new account in order to play the other faction.
Buying an Existing WoW Account
This is the way for players who want to get past the lower levels which they find tedious and boring or players who want to play with theirfriends who are at higher levels.
An existing account allows a player to start at whatever point the account is at. An existing account have established a lot of the game andtherefore allow a player to get right to the heart of playing.
World of Warcraft accounts can be bought from a player who no longer wishes to play the game or through a professional. Some professionals willcreate an account for the sole purpose of selling them.
A word of caution, When buying an existing account a player should check to make sure that it is what he wants and that he should have all theinformation on the account. The purchase should be taking seriously since the whole idea is to buy a usable account.
World of Warcraft accounts allow a player to get right into game play. They allow a player to avoid having to build up their own game and allowthem to really get into the game and have fun playing without having to fool around with all the lower levels.
