I have 2 Steam Accounts and 1 Dayz SA purchase for each. When I log out of account "A" and into account "B" my character remains the same as account "A". This has been reported MANY times within the last week and after several hours of searching I've not found a single fix/answer to this. I'd like to get what I paid for. What do I have to do in order to play on my other account?

It is because the files are stored in your documents folder, rather than in the accounts' steam applications folder. If you'd use a second computer, with your second Steam account, you will be able to play another char.
I'm not sure if its possible to move the DayZ files away from */user/documents folder

you could play on one pc with both.
The char you see when you loaded the game and the name right button is the same. But at the moment you connect to a server DayZ load the right char from the steam cloud (only the name remains the same).
The char in the screen by loading the game is on your pc in one folder and is ONLY to show you how you looked like as you disconnected the last time. For nothink else

Hi,
this has been reported several times, yes. And if you actually read the reports you would see why there is no fix.
There is no fix, because there is no bug. The character that is loaded on the main menu screen is that last character that has been played. Upon connecting to a server the character corresponding to the active Steam account is loaded.
No save files are stored locally on your computer. They are stored in our database. Every time you log into the game, the client downloads the character based on which Steam account is active.
