Interesting, I have that exact situation coming up in a few years if my stepson is still playing then to transfer it to him, thanks for the tip.

I'm going to disagree with you on giving away an account but what you do is your business...it's about identity and interaction with other players...If I had made friends with you and one day you log on and it's not really you it would be kinda awkward... I wish Blizzard would let you properly transfer ownership of your toon like SOE does then it wouldn't matter and you'd get a name change in the process, in that regard it wouldn't be a problem but I believe the identity thing is the biggest issue.
