Used to subscribe and had all 8 slots full. Came back today to try the Silver Account out and expected to be able to create up to 2 Silver characters, because all Q&As assured us that our Gold characters would remain intact.
What I found is that this wasn't the case. I had no desire to convert the old characters, in case I decided to come back to Gold (not likely, now). I ended up having to delete all but 2 of my Gold characters before I had the option appear to create a new Silver one.
Any idea what's going on there?

You not getting any "extra" silver slots is working as intended. Otherwise people would subscribe for a month, let their subscription end, go silver for a few days to get two silver slots and then go gold again and have gained two char slots for free. You having to delete that many characters was not how it was intended. Dev Explanation to how the slots work

Sure, I saw that one on the forums. But that means I should've only had to remove 1 character to get a silver slot open. Doesn't explain why the "Create" option didn't show up until I had deleted 6 of them. :/

Yeah Have you tried contacting a GM? I haven't. Guess I'll try that now. Not that it'll help at this point. I don't think they can restore deleted characters, can they?

Sorry this happened Phoenix. To anyone reading, remember you can create as many free accounts as you want, so instead of deleting a character you might want to play again just create a new free account and you'll get more slots to play.

They might try to give you a hard time about it but they can restore deleted characters. There are limitations to a restore although I'm not absolutely sure what they are.

Unfortunately the slots were not working like they should until the Jan 31st Patch and during the six days in between the launch of f2p and the fix a lot of people deleted or converted old gold characters they wouldn't have otherwise. Silver Players can now create a Silver Character if they have Seven or less characters on the account. If you have more then seven characters on your previously Gold account you will need to reduce the number down to seven in order to create your Silver Character. www.champions-online.com/release-notes
