Sponsor for plat trial? 01/28/2012 05:33 PM CST
Hello, I'm thinking about making Platinum my new home, but I'd like to give it a try before I make any commitments. Would anyone be willing to sponsor me for a trial?

I'd be happy to lend my name. Account is Vawn, character: Talo. I totally forget how to do this though, so if someone wants to post and remind me, I'll get on it lickeyt split. If not, I'll look it up tomorrow morning.

Okay so I found this link. The link itself still works (at least it did for me), but I have no idea if this is the process to use any more, since I also found old posts saying shoot X GM an email with the account and character names of both the referrer and the referree. Someone let us know if we should email please?

It acts as if I've upgraded with that link, thanks a tonne. Hopefully I'll get a chance to log in tonight since I'm out on the road. See you in game, hopefully!

Very welcome. If you want to keep the secret, cool. If not, let us know who you are. I forget if trials have access to the Plat boards though.

trial accts do have access to plat boards. at least they did when i've been on as trial <summer> at various times thru the years. I'm ususually around somewhere on some character or other if you need beginner-type gear and stuff. :-)

type chatter /on when you get there.

chatter is OOC.

gweths are usually available in a box by NE gate, and are world-wide.most people use Jadeite. Thats for IC communication.
Alb crystal rings have sometimes been put in the donation bin as well for 1 to 1 private conversations.

Hrm, it said that my trial was beginning, but when I go to make a character it acts as if I need to subscribe. I'll try again, but I dunno what to do if that doesn't work.

I emailed tech support for good measure, hopefully it works out.

I also emailed Lyneya. They'll get us straightened out sooner or later.

Kudos to Mike in billing, he fixed it in less than 5 minutes! Apparently, the application glitched, but everything is working great now! See you all in game
