Yeah, I do even though I know I shouldn't.

Many get attached to their charactes  I believe

certainly do, not much but enough to feel a bit sad when dying

Yes, always. I encourage it! Like characters in a book, you're telling a story. Authors get attached to their characters as do readers of the book. When you pour so more history and potential into a character, give them depth and lore, it's expected that you get a even a little fond of them. 

You can give a character a path to follow, let them be molded by those who they encounter or just free-ball it and see where you end up. 

A good character makes you care about them, which is why books like Game of Thrones and Harry Potter are so successful.

This place is no different, we're telling a story.

Not for a long time, with how quick it can be ripped away from you sometimes i have found over the years more and more my senses have become dulled and desensitized with a level of expectation of what the game offers.   Certain people i would say i have become attached to over the years, and suffered a level of frustration due to what could of been done, but not so much an attachment to characters anymore.

I've gotten attached to a few characters, normally it's the ones that last over a month. Or if they are just having a really good run (even if it's a "young run"). It really just depends on what kind of people I'm around. A lot goes into what can be considered a "good" Run.

All the time  some times I'm at work or in the car and someone calls my name and i don't here them, or notice , i even told some people to call me my name on here.

I do, but only if they have lasted a little I guess

No I don't unfortunately. 

Not generally more so to the people I've met over time.

My best character was just a noob, so not really. But when I did lose my first character I did feel a little bad for losing him because even though he was a noob.
