			Im just wondering what happens when a signature account goes F2P.  Do all the joined circles disappear except one? What about alts, are they deleted except for two?

The answer will vary based on when you activated your account, and whether or not you paid anything for the game before the F2P launch.  If you bought a copy of the client before June 2015 (can't recall the day,) you keep all your character slots.  Also, if you've bought additional ones off the cash store, you keep those.
 
There's also your Cosmic Rewards progress to consider, because social perks get unlocked as you move along that track.  It is confuse.  So confuse!

			unlocking character slots can be done with omni bits or Ncoin and signature membership is not required to do so therefor if your signature membership expires your characters should remain. As for the circles that's a little less defined because it says f2p can only join 1 circle while signature can join 5 but also create/join circles. My guess is that you'll stay in the circles that you belong to but should you leave them you won't be able to join others or create new ones unless you reactivate your signature membership.

			characters will not be deleted but you will not be able to create any new ones until you get below your character limit.  if you purchased a box copy, the character slots remain as it is grand fathered in.  I would assume circles would be handled the same way.  you keep the ones your in, but cannot join any new ones until you are below the threshold.

			Thank you all, I totally forgot about the Cosmic reward circle unlocks.

Not quite. You had to buy your boxed copy before a certain date (9/29/15 iirc). Box copies bought and applied after the launch of F2P don't get the bonus slots.
