In a pay for play system, simply providing only 1 character per 
account would do it, as long as the account is the same price 
as a current multi-character account.  I posted a pretty extensive 
rant on the topic under the subject heading,

I am fairly confident that players would understand that the
 increase in cost per character accompanies an increase in 
the quality of play, due to the many problems that a single 
character system corrects.
