The following was written by one of our new teammates, who are currently undergoing training and do not yet possess forum accounts of their own; as a result, they shall be posting via proxy through me. Q u o t e:
ok, just now getting around to making my 2nd account, and ran into snags....
1) wondering if going thru the recruit-a-freind section will actually get me the 1 free month on my main account when I buy the game 2morrow for this 2nd account? OR am I violating something somewhere by not being my own friend?
You're not your own friend? Do you make bad relationship choices? Are you bad with money? /comfort
On a serious note, you can certainly use 'Recruit-A-Friend' with your second account =).
Q u o t e:
2) I don't want to use a CCard - i like buying the game cards, and have a few still unused on hand, but when I went to make new account - it will not let me use the game card, or a NO payment option yet. I find this odd, since a) game card is paying, i would think it should work & b) being a 'TRIAL' account you would think it wouldn't need a payment option at this time.... ???
Unfortunately, use of a credit card is absolutely necessary to establish an account, though you can of course use game cards to pay for the account once it is established.
Q u o t e:
3) also I was wondering if there's any discrepancies between my 2 accounts information that would prevent me from transferring toons, is there a way to test for it while it's still in 'Trial' mode before I assign my authorization number to it, and finding out later down the road it was done wrong, and I'm SoL...?
Actually, your best bet is to visit the Character Transfer FAQ at:
