I have 5 vanilla accounts.

How do people use RAF to their benefit?

I note with RAF, you get the EXP bonus and the 'friend' doesn't even have to subscribe at this point they can be using the starter, but I guess starter's are limited be level 20? So I guess you can't level a bunch of characters on the new and old accounts then abandon the new ones.

Do people level a lot of chars then abandon their old accounts in favour of the new ones with all the 80s they've levelled? Transferring all those characters to the original accounts would cost a lot.

It seems like such a nice thing that I can't think how to use without incurring excessive monetary expense.
