It Is Said that all silvers got hteir extra slot, however i have read plenty posts to that contrary are they bring ignored simply becuase they are silver?
will the fix that helps golds possably help the silvers who didn't recieve theirs? or arer these silvers guys who forgot they used to be gold?
Probably most of them were silvers who forgot they were gold. Remember, if they used an old boxed copy to start, that counted as gold time, even if they never directly paid for a monthly membership. Or if they say added something like the Amazon Collector's Edition to their account. Or the Digital Deluxe Edition.

One more than what they had before, but because of a bug, won't show up until after maintenance. As long as maintenance fixes it as it's supposed to.
Thanks much. SO I had 3 before so should expect 4. Nice.
No just wait for the switch to get flipped back on...
I'm a little confused by this thread. I was a former gold, and I had used all my three original slots back then. After my sub lapsed, I eventually bought four character slots, but found that I only had six total. I assumed this was because the third slot counted as one of the four since I didn't have a sub at the time I purchased the slots. When I re-subbed for a few months, I found that I had gained a seventh slot. I was under the impression that in my circumstances, I would not be getting another slot. Is this incorrect?
...
I was a subscriber from the time the game launched. I did buy slots (4 I think it was). Thus, I had the original number (four?) of slots, one for a Klingon, the 4 I purchased and one for the Foundry. Does that sound right?
If so, I expect I'm supposed to get a slot for a Romulan. However, I have not. It tells me all my slots are filled..
As a Subscriber, ('Gold' Status), you were entitled for 3 original Character slots, 4 if you count the new Romulan character slot.
If you let your Subscription lapse, and revert to 'Silver' status, you are entitled to 2 original Slots, 3 if you count the new Romulan slot.
The Extra Slot for 'Gold' is a property of the Subscription status, and not a property of the Account. If your subscription status changes, so does the number of Character slots you are entitled too...
So how is it I have 10 characters? I only purchased 4 extra slots, so I should have 8 slots by your assessment, 9 including one for Foundry use. This is why I'm confused. Every time I've asked, I've been told different things, and I've never heard anything from Cryptic, even when I filed a ticket about it.
I suppose I'll have to wait a little to see if a slot opens up.
Then what happened makes sense now... Cryptic will not delete a character slot (even if you owe them one) if it is occupied by a Character... (As Character data is never deleted...) A empty slot on the other hand is fair game. The moment a empty slot shows up in your account, Cryptic will take it to make up for the Slot you owed them... So take a guess where that empty slot came from...
my account has 6 slots, 3 fed, 1 kdf and 2 rom, and I am a former sub but now a silver player, I did pay for 2 more slots and they gave me one for the lor. it I snice that they didn't take away slots you unlocked as a former sub
when you lapse you keep the extra slot but if you delete it you lose it. If you buy extra slots then one of those new slots is filled by the extra character that they were kind enough not to delete or lock when you lapsed. For the new Romulan slot Branflakes was saying yesterday that lapsed gold gets a new empty slot making the total 4 characters. the extra character will remain extra having the same limitations.

But now, i have to decide which faction to choose, Klingon or Federation!
If we had 1 more, i could play both sides, perhaps i should buy extra an slot, if i like to play as Romulan.
I took the initiave expecting to not get the slot and deleted a few low level never played alts.
