Edited by: aquontium on 10/05/2007 06:49:35 Today I sent my wife a trial account signup and she tried to try eve from her PC. Somewhat skeptical that it would be worth her time, she nonetheless gave her details and submitted an account.

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.
Common CCP, what is going on here? I'm paying for two accounts, giving you approximately $360 a year or thereabouts, and cannot give my wife a trial subscription so she can try it for two weeks before probably giving you another $180 a year..
Think you might look into this, before I give you $0 a year instead?
kind regards,
Aquontium/Aquo
PS. To make it clearer, I do not have another trial account running.

This was done to prevent people to use 14 day trials in conjunction with their real characters. Using a proxy might help.

There is a "security measure" that prevents people from running a full account and a trial account on the same machine at the same time. It might have something to do with it. However, I was able to run a trial and full account from a different machine but same IP address successfully.

Could be an issue with data in your config for standard eve.
Try a fresh install/copy of your existing install with config blatted. I only ever had this issue when running a standard account and trying to use the trial on the same computer at the same time. AFAIK there is no issue running the trial by itself.

Edited by: MellaRinn on 10/05/2007 08:23:07 It only concerns accounts created on the same email address afaik. My main + my brotehr's trial = no-go; my alt with different email address + my brother's trial = ok :)

you are running a normal acc at the same time. thats why she cant start it up. - buy a 30day time code for isk - around 150-160mill and you can extend a trial acc whit that time code then she have 44days to try it out in and you have only used ingame money

But of course you never would let her use your alt slot since it is against the EULA :D ________________________________ I can't stand lazy forum posters. They should be banned. |

ROFLMAO, you think your $180 a year will make or break CCP's wallet...
oh and in reference to your post, why not let her just hop on your account and let her see what the games all about? ________________________________ High Sec PvP

Its not IP based, I've had people playing a trial beside me on a lan at work & the IP is fixed.
Eve would be so much better than the soccer team.
All I can ask is, was it a clean install ? ___
