Is there any way to turn off automatically making a profile every time I roll a character? I have a LOT of PvE alts on other servers that I don't need/want profiles for and it just makes it hard to find the profile I DO want to switch to when there's such a huge list for characters I am never going to need a profile on. I'd rather have an 'opt in' to save a profile when I roll characters. This is a great add on and I love it and you clearly put a lot of time and effort into it. Thanks for all you do, and no big deal if this isn't possible.

We would want a way for Total RP 3 to use only one profile by default, instead of creating new ones for each character. This option would be opt-in (to avoid confusion for new players switching characters) and would be reset if the profile is deleted.

What if instead of making a single profile by default, we prevent profiles from showing up in the list until they've been changed away from containing nothing but the toon name/class?

I don't think hiding existing profile to users based on if they have valid content or not is a good idea. It can lead to confusion, you would see your new character using a profile that is not currently listed. Also, you will never be able to delete those profiles, so they will pile up silently.

Somewhere in the settings, we should have a dropdown to choose between creating a new profile or using a default one, something like:

New characters uses: [New profile        V]
					 [Ellypse-KirinTor    ]
					 [Marybell            ]
					 [Baa'l               ]

Taking a stab at this issue. Having an existing profile set as the default one was easy enough to do but I find it awkward in practice: every new character is getting a profile showing a name/class/race which might not match the current ones at all.

Before committing to that solution, I would like to suggest an alternative that would take more time to put into place and test properly: If opting in, a non-editable profile named "Default profile" (or your regional equivalent) will be added to the profile list and automatically selected for every new character (and can be manually selected if the user wants to for whatever reason). This profile would always return the current character username/class/race/default icon, and nothing for all other fields. Instead of profile tabs, you would see a single message indicating that you need to create a new profile to be able to edit it.

This way, you would retain the visibility of a regular profile in the list, not build up invisible tables, while avoiding the awkwardness of your blood elf mage appearing as a mechagnome monk for everyone else.

Additionally, we could include the information that the profile is a default one when sending it, as to handle it differently in other players' directory (or the default would be replaced every time, but it could be confusing?)

Instead of profile tabs, you would see a single message indicating that you need to create a new profile to be able to edit it.

As long as this single message has a button or link right there on the page that'd allow users to perform that action, instead of saying "go to the X page and do Y". Optionally this could prompt for a profile name and, if so, should default to the current profile naming scheme ("character - server").
