Check your emails; the latest newsletter went out, and mine had a beta key attached. I already had one and now I've got a spare, so if anyone didn't get one PM me and I'll hook you up.
Edit: Key gone.

http://www.curse.com/ is giving away keys right now. You need to sign up for a free account on their site but you don't need to pay anything or do anything strange. Having said that, these beta keys apparently "increase your chances" of being invited into the beta, so they're not like the beta keys I'm used to. On the Telara site they show up as a "Curse_RIFT_Beta_Invite", if that means anything to anyone.

Hmmm, I checked my account today and there's a community beta key that was added over a month ago (must be from here). Suweeeet.
Went ahead and added all the other keys too though.
edit: nvm, that community key was the one Trion automatically added a long time ago eh?

Yes.
The Curse key sounds like it is of the same nature, although I don't know if it doubles your chances to have both.
|
Hahahaha! I'm really good at this!

If you mean the ability to make/be in a guild in game, I can't see why they wouldn't have that in there. |

Anyone else having registration problems? I have registered 3 different accounts/emails including 1 hotmail and none got the confirmation email back so I cant fully activate my account. Apparently this problem is happening to a lot of people. Many are also simply being redirected back to their main webpage when they click the activation link if they did get an email. This sucks since I have a beta key and cant even get an account to play...guess Ill try gmail :P

Sounds like a problem with their fancy new "email as your username" login system (which was a bad security move IMO).

Ok folks, I've got a VIP Beta Key to give away and I'm going to give it away to one of you guys.
What you don't need to win: Facebook or Twitter
What you do need to win: An F13 account older than one year.
How to automatically lose: Send me a PM about it.
How to win: I will pick someone totally not at random.
I'll give it to whoever before the beta event starts this weekend (Dec 3rd).

I don't have any great ideas, but I do think you should give it to somebody that actually still loves MMOs. If you can find somebody like that on these forums. |

You should require a 500 word essay describing why tanks are better than mechs (or vice versa).
Then have WUA judge them.

I'm not sure if that would be painful or amusing. |

You should make interested parties write poetry about why they want to play.  |

I've got community beta...that doesn't sound like VIP, does it? If not, you should probably give it to me. That way, I can call a GM in the game and ask Scott to turn on the heat in the poolhouse, it was cold out here last night. And he's got it padlocked.
I don't love mmo, though. Witness my half-hour jaunt into WoW. I probably wouldn't even log in! Or worse, download the 89GB client, log in, they ask me to kill ten rats and I end up in the newspaper. Thanks alot, Drae. Look what you did. I hope you can live with yourself.
Anyway.
There once was a man from Telara
Who wore copious amounts of mascara
Gave Regulos a fright
To the defiant's delight
He left, saying "I'll be back tomorrow"

Maybe I shouldn't have suggested poetry, even though I was specifically thinking of Sky's Ode to Hartsman.

Trade you for a t-shirt from the social media contest that I still need to email you my address for. It would save you s&h  Other than that, possibly hold an MSpaint contest of some sort. It's never a bad idea to hold an MSpaint contest. |

Heh, I'm not running a guild this time. You should require a 500 word essay describing why tanks are better than mechs (or vice versa).
Then have WUA judge them. I am totally down with this. Now I'm actually tempted. Would anyone second and third this idea? |

While I'm not a fan because I couldn't give two shits about mechs vs tanks, I do like the potential entertainment value of the idea.
