    Is the 14 Day Trial still available?

    I just tried setting up my eve account tonight and was unable to obtain a trial CD key by which to begin the trial. Was the 14 Day trial a temporary program that has now expired? The only way I found my way to a trial CD Key dispencer was by searching for it from Google (it linked be back to a secure page on eveonline.com). The page SEEMED to work, but I never got a code via email. And I tried it several times. Nor did it say "You can only request one CD code" or anything like that. I suppose it may have been given when I DLd the Eve client, but I missed it if that is the case.

    If the trial is no longer available, I don't mind shelling out the dough for one month. But it would be nice to try it for free instead.

    Never mind!

    The server must have been partially down or something... I just tried again and got my key. (other functions of the website didn't work before either, such as the online store).

    In anycase, disregard the above. And mods, feel free to delete this thread.

    Thanks Strike! I look forward to playing with you and the rest of the 42nd. I just hope I this isn't somehow a REALLY, REALLY bad decision I have just made as far as my real-world social life and productivity as a human being in the next few months is concerned.

    I've heard horror stories about Eve... stories about 48 hour mining binges... interventions by family and friends... rehab programs and support groups... the list goes on and on.

    Hmmmm... maybe starting a Heroine habit would have been a better choice.

    Heh, looking forward to having you, Fuzzy! And heroin is far less fun than this - and probably far healthier

    anyone else that runs into this problem just ask for a buddy email from someone that already has an account. It's the other way to get a trial.

    Lol Munchkin.. the sad thing about this thread is that I am not sure if you made a mistake just now in saying that Heroine is FAR HEALTHIER then EVE, or you were just making a joke. Eve blurs the lines... makes everything so....

    You were once like the newbie who needed a hand from above and TacticalGamer gave you it.

    You owe the newbie who comes after you that same outstretched hand from above on your honor as a Tactical Gamer.
