Re: Free level 85 characters from Oct 1st - Oct 15 !!!!!
- One free level 85 character can be made ONCE per account. If you delete your free level 85 and try to make a new one, you have to pay.
- SOE uses your current IP address to determine what accounts are allowed to create a free level 85.
- Changing your IP address allows an account that has not yet created or did not previously qualify for a free level 85 character to create a free level 85 character.
- SOE checks for accounts creating free level 85 characters that are using linked email accounts (ex. account 1 and account 2 both use iplayEQ@gmail.com)
- SOE checks for accounts using similar or patterned account logins that are creating multiple free level 85 characters. (Ex. ISBOXPaladin and ISBOXWarden as account names)
- SOE bans accounts using multiple IP addresses but same email accounts when multiple level 85 chars are created (ex. I create a free level 85 at home and a free level 85 at work. Both share the same email)
What I have yet to determine...
- Does SOE ban separate accounts with separate email addresses that are created on separate IP addresses that are then all played and logged in from a single IP address (ex. I make account A with email address A from home. I then make account B using email address B from work. I then login at home on both account A and account B from home.
- Is there a limit to the amount of free level 85 characters than can be used on a single IP address before SOE gets involved and either Temp or Perma-bans.
I will likely have my answer in the coming days as I created 24 new accounts after the Nov 22 deadline and all 24 accounts have a free level 85 character on them. For my own security sake, I will not explain how I did this (but if you are smart, the above paints a very good picture). Note that nothing I did was illegal to achieve this; Eula violating perhaps but not illegal.
