Transferring costumes between one's OWN characters

Hiya.

I'd like the ability to transfer my Authentic Spookat Mask from an inactive character to my currently active one. Now, I understand the reasoning behind not letting you unbind & sell unique stuff like that off to anyone, but I think one should have such freedom as long as the change adheres to your own account.

Yay or nay? I don't see what they have to lose on implementing such a feature. But then again, I suppose I don't see what they stand to gain, either.

Any particular reason for changing your primary knight? Are you secretly transferring robot drugs?

If it binds upon aquiration, meaning as soon as it goes in your inventory it binds, then no. That would go against the point of having individual and separate knights. You could have worked on getting it on your other knight but since you got it on your now unused knight that is where it is. At least it was just a costume, imagine having built a full 5* set with a walrusload of UVs and wanting to transfer them over to your new knight.

@Luguiru

"aquiration"

Acquisition.

@Vyreon
One thing to think about is the fact that siblings sometimes share one account, but each has their own character on that account. Surely OOO can make more money off of people in that situation by making items nontransferable.

The problem itself is weird, why did you make a second charater, why did you get a mask on the one you dont use.

@Luguiri, Little-Juances:

@Luguiri, Little-Juances:

I'm one of those bastages who need to be pleased with how my characters look... Thus, partly out of laziness, I made a new character because of the additional character customization options that had been added. The result is something I'll probably keep as costume even when I have 5* gear (probably wouldn't even use the Spookat mask a lot if I did transfer it). I am that pleased. And yes, Luguiru, it could have been a LOT worse.

I wish I stayed on Spiral Knights yesterday instead of watching a movie (horror, naturally). Probably had time to get a hold of enough candy.

@Manalicious-Knight:

That's probably right.

Thanks for the input, guys.

But

Why did you make other knights and got the mask on it when you know one of them is active? Juances said it well

No, no no no! I know I didn't

No, no no no! I didn't explain this, but my now-inactive character got this Spookat mask last Halloween. I made my new character a few days ago.

Robot drugs?

@Luguiru: Have you watched the movie Surrogates? They used little tazer things to hypercharge themselves and real nice feeling (also known as getting high), since it is the humans controlling them who get the feels.
