Active account holders can invite three friends to play.

I still haven't played this, but I'm open to suggestion  :grin:

Ooh. Hope they'll still be doing that when the game goes live on Mac. I have a friend who's desperate to play but won't dual-boot her machine.

They have a Mac client already.

So this particular Refer a Friend program is apparently limited to just this weekend for the new patch event, not an anytime trial.

 :oh_i_see:  Ah well, would still love to try it out.  Apparently they'll be shedding some more light on the details today.

Yea I've heard this a few times lately, poeple not realizing there's been a Mac client for awhile. People shouldn't be confused by the "beta" tag. It's as stable as the PC one as far as I've found. Or, it's as much a technical beta as Gmail was for the years it had the beta tag  :grin:

System is live.  https://account.guildwars2.com/login and click refer a friend for instructions.

If someone is able, I'll PM you my email for invite.  Many thanks in advance  :grin:

Thanks for what? There appears to be no reward for inviting people?

Oh derp, you want an invite. I can send you one if you want.

Yea, so wait a sec: how does one launch a Refer a Friend program without incentifying the current players to refer a friend? Seriously, not even like an Achievement or a Black Lion Key? Nothing??

Pretty sure the message on the loading screen had something about getting a bonus chest if your trials subscribe.

Subscribe to what?

I stand corrected anyway. If the free-trial user "upgrades" to the full account they get a "bonus Booster Multipack, a handy in-game item packed with consumable boosters that will give your character an edge!". So there isn't an incentive for convincing friends to sign up.

How about playing a good game with friends?
