Yes.

There is a post about it on the tech help official forum.

You have to pm 2 specific CSRs and they set you up a forum handle manually.

Only they are on holiday until tuesday.

And if you don't have a forum handle you can't pm them.

Yes you did read that right.

Try "fizzledshite".  It always seems to work for me.

No it wouldn't.

Apparently you need to create a different handle for EQ2 from the one you have for your other station boards.

Because... well... oh fuck knows. But you do.

I'm using a station account which has a perfectly acceptable handle on SWG, Planetside, and EQ. But is that any help getting into EQ2? Is it bollocks.

Man, this is right up there with sending an email request to have your network card replaced.

"I workaround I found is to use a preexisting forum name from the EQ1 forums.

If you have one, log in there to see it, then use it on the EQ2 forums.  This only works if you already have been an EQ1 subscriber."

Can anyone PM an old forum account for EQ1 that I might at least get patched up and playing.

Or will changing the forum account later on fuck that too?


EDIT: fixed it.  Just manually subbed for a forum account linked to my station ID.  But now I can't post on the forums, but I have a subscription!  Will catch up Wed/Thur.

The best part of SWG was the easy account cancellation process.

Ummm... I used the same station account for EQ, SWG, and EQ2.  I was able to read and post to the boards for all 3.

That stuff above is either very recent, or nonsense.

The problem only seems to have arisen as of last Friday.
