1. How many free trials can I make from the one CC? Assuming you have to enter CC details to sign up.

2. Will the characters on the free trial accounts be deleted if it becomes inactive? For example, if I were to swear under my characters, would I lose the free followers I gained in the future?

Emerald Lightning Broad Sword, 0 tinks, work 7, dmg 32.4-54, +10 atk/+12 MeleeD, Sword 400+ to wield, Major Blood Thirst, Infected Caress, Strength Self VI, Elysa's Sight, Lore 19, Rank 10, Sword 343, Value 14703, 323 BU"

1) Unfortunately not sure. But I personally have 13 accounts on one credit card, PLUS a free trial (I wanted to see what the restrictions were).

2) I doubt that Turbine would delete the characters after the free trial. That would make a lot of new player upset, I'm sure.

Ok does anyone see the problem with this. People doing things to see if they can get away with it. Where is your honor. Is the game that important that you are willing to screw up a good thing. We want poeple to come back to the game but if you make it hard for Turbine to allow this to happen because you want to get away with something then maybe they should ban you.

I just would like to see some people do the right thing for once. Your greed will be your downfall and removal from AC. DO you really need 6 more vassals attached to your character for the rank or something else to cheat the game. Please explain why you need to do this.

Not sure if you realize Turbine will now have to spend time looking for people like you and take them away from working on the game. This has been the bigest problem with all the TPA's added to the game by other people. Turbine has had to spend extra time on issues brought about by the addition of this programs that modified the way people play. You can say you don't effect other people with this but you do. You effect Turbine most of all and them the rest of us who have to wait to get new content and updates.

Just ticks me off when someone writes about doing something to see the reation from Turbine. Well I think they are a little bit busy with the game to worry about you adding 500 more accounts to your name so you can cheat the system. Honor folks. Do the right thing and enjoy the game. Nothing is gained by you trying to get away with something. Those free trials are for new and returning players to see how the game is now. Not your own personal abuse system to gain.

Mate, getting rank 10 legit is impossible seeing as the population is so low.

I see nothing wrong with making rank from free trial accounts.

Turbine sees a problem with it. They have now stated they'd ban for abusing trial acounts.

You make a good point about rank 10 with such low server pops....maybe they need to adjust rank on some things, but really, all you need for rank is 6 to get a mansion. Most other rank can be tinked off.

Plus there is no benefit for being rank 10, other than items that require it. And, if I saw someone that was rank 10 and it was all from THEMSELVES cheating turbine by using the free trial accounts I would in no way join that allegiance.

Like I said, I just made the free trial to see if there was anything special about it. I haven't even sworn into an allegiance. Just curious :)

Yep, when I get an OVERMAX sword, 1 point from being the best possible damage you could ever find, and it requires an impossible rank to activate it, it annoys me..

It's the first rank 10 item I've seen in years too.. whats the go there :(

Now with a rank tink on it, it'll just be on par with a minor bloodthirst max sword.. :(

I guess I'll be equipping the Circlet of Supremacy every time I put my sword on I guess :p
