Do you ever roll two of the same class?

Every once in a while I'll hear from a friend that he or she has rolled a new character in an MMO. This by itself is not strange nor unusual, but what is weird is that the new character is of the exact same class as another one that the player regularly uses.

To me, this is a hard concept to wrap my head around. MMO characters take so much time to develop as it is, and part of the joy of rolling a new alt is trying a different experience. Why would someone want to play the same class again if there are others that haven't been touched yet?

I'm sure they have their reasons, and I'm curious if you've done this. Do you ever roll two of the same class, and if so, why? Explain yourself!

So I did...the first MMO I have played is called Metin 2. I have played it together with some miraculous friends for more than 5 years. My main character was  a dragon-shaman (in other MMOs you can call them wizard). This class is suited really good for PVE, but they suck in PVP -.- After I made most of my chars to the highlevel I was bored and decided to create the best PVP-shaman at the server. This was a hard work, however, together with my husband and our guild I was able to win a server-PVP-tournament as the first dragon-shaman =)

well haven't really rolled the same classes on the same server anyway.

I actually have. I rolled a second paladin in wow once. So I had one on alliance and one on horde. I dont even care that I had two they are so fun to play and to level up.
