Hey,
Just wondering if I'm doing something wrong. I'm trying to run a fully paid for account and a trial account at the same time to see if my PC can handle it with the new Revelations update. I used to be able to do that no problem, but now i cant seem to log in the trial account. It comes up with the message: "While we appreciate your enthusiasm to try EVE, we would also appreciate if you could limit yourself to using a single trial account at a time." As far as i know technically speaking I'm NOT running two trial accounts... I don't really know, thats why I'm asking, so thanks in advance

It is no longer possible to log into a trial account if there is already an active client running on the same computer (subscription or other trial).
Was added in Revelations.

maybe try running TRANQ and SISI at the same time? Maybe that's allowed..

To be fair EVE isn't as hungry in resources as a lot of games. If you have a semi-decent (ie: not bottome of the range) PC you should be able to run 2 clients withno problem.
Sorry, but the restrictions on trial accounts are there for a reason.

You already know whether your PC can handle two accounts at the same time, by your own declaration. Revelations did not increase system specs to any appreciable degree - what you could do before, you can still do now.
Part of the reason they did this is to limit how much multi-boxing with free alts was going on - something that's much more important, now that a starting character is actually competent.
If you want to run two characters on the same computer, pay the money. It's not as though it's such a huge expense.
