Show me your alt-itis!

I'm wondering how bad other people have the need to make alternate characters..

Right now (off the top of my head) I've got two level 55's, a level 40, two level 25's, and about 3 chars whom are 8-12. Yes, I purchased extra char slots.

The worst thing is that two of my chars are the same class. I found I like the look and feel of Asura Guardians over Human ones, so I made an asura guardian (lvl 25, human guard was 40). I found I heavily dislike the female charr voice, so my warrior whom was a lvl 55 female charr, I've rerolled to a huuge Norn male warrior, whom is about lvl 11 right now.

I got my sylvari Ele from lvl 13 to 55 in just a couple days.. I lover her to death, but once I got there, I felt the need to explore more classes so I just started a ranger last night whom I think is lvl 8.

Despite having like 9 char slots, not even one of them is a Mesmer.

TL;DR:
How many alts do you have, what levels are they, and was there a reason to your alt?

Not that this is a content, but I think I have you beat. lol I have fifteen character slots, spread over 2 accounts.

My highest level character is a 74 level human engineer, followed by a 30th level Asuran necromancer. Then I have a 12 level Sylvari ranger and a 9th level Sylvari mesmer. My other characters are very low level mostly 2-4th level, though, but I have a charr ranger, a charr thief, and Asuran Elementalist, a human necro and a I don't know 13 characters all up, with two slots unused.

I have 4(5) characters.

Level 80 Charr Warrior
Level 9 Human Ranger
Level 2 Asura Guardian
Level 2 Norn Thief
Level 4/5 Norn Necromancer(my friends "try-out" character)

I currently have 5 characters, but I keep deleting 3 of them over and over to remake new alts and start over again.

The one benefit I can think of is that I'll know all of the classes inside-out by the time I get to lvl 80 =D.

Except for the mesmer, anyways. eww.

I have 5 characters right now.

a lvl 55 Elementalist
lvl 15 Thief
lvl 19 warrior
lvl 11 guardian
lvl 11 engineer

I'm currently considering buying additional slots, but am still hesitant; I've never bought anything on an otherwise subscription free game and can't really bring myself to breaking with this tradition. :)
I guess I could just delete the thief, as I don't really like this class, but on the other hand he has his own personality by now and deleting him would be murder...
But I need the space to give every one of the three remaining classes a try; I guess I just have to spend 30 €. And maybe I can even bring myself to playing an asura... *shivers*

80 Guardian 'Malcolm Phoss'
52 Warrior 'Vorric Sproul'
28 Thief 'Jackie Chan'
13 Engi 'Mal Ferguson'
6 Necro 'Sinclair Phoss'

Nice Malcom. Do you find that you prefer the guardian or warrior more?

80 norn Guard
61 norn warrior (who really is my main, but got caught up on my guard and maxed out her crafting)
26 Human Ele (hasn't left the human city since level 13. Maxed out jeweler)
1 Human thief (poor guy hasn't even left starter zone)

How on earth do you guys level so fast? What takes you a few days to get to level 55 take me 1.5 months lol.
