Moo.

I hope someone out there gets a little free fun out of this.

I just unsubscribed, uninstalled, and deleted the directory, and then THIS comes along! I'd love to revisit some of my old, long abandoned accounts...

And they are doing something similar for EQ2 also... Gawd, I am such a sucker for FREE play time.

Good luck out there.

"I play MMORPGs to feel FREE, yet I am always in chains."

I just checked one of my inactive accounts and it is not active....


Checked another inactive account:  Worked.

 

 

Weird.  Is this for just old "station pass" subscribers?  I literally have like 10 inactive accounts and even more of friends whose info I could get.

No way!  Anytime someone asks, "what's your favorite mmo you ever played?" and i'll always say, "EQ."  I am so excited.  I started out on Test and played an enchanter all up to 56 or so (on test, so aka soloed haha).  I can't wait to come back.

One of my inactive accounts, with my Cleric, is in great standing.  The account is like 6 years old.

 

 

It is not active!  One of my other accounts is, and I have not tested others.
