Small things, like a separate aggregate bank for gems and mats would go a long way. Similar to how Guild Wars 1 did their materials storage, separate from your gear stash and each different type of mat was represented with an icon, next to it a tally of your total amount.
We'll get more stash with a new xpac. Not much, but we'll see more room. To my knowledge, Wyatt Chang NEVER said in such terms that we'll never get more stash.
He said, and I'm not paraphrasing "If we give you more, you'll just ask for more". A snide way of saying that people can never have enough stash in a game like this, and there are technical limitations to what can be provided.

Kanai's cube isn't out yet. And it may very well change how we use the space that is given to us. Many of us tend to keep different kinds of the same item depending on what we intend to do (ie T6 gear vs greater rift gear). That uses up the space very quickly especially if you are playing more than 1 toon.
I agree with fstr21 concerning paying for more stash space or character slots. It's certainly something I'd consider doing. I resent your condescending tone.

I know that this subject comes up all the time, and that people are probably tired of hearing about it. I'm wondering if any ideas are in the works in terms of addressing this.
I propose a system that has 5 tabs of shared space, and 5 tabs of non-shared space for each character on top of that. Would this seem reasonable? How hard would this be to implement?
