how do i create a trial account??

how do i create a trial account? i looked all over the website and i can't find out how >.<

Get a trial key. Anyone know from where? Calor 03:13, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

Was fileupload until the bots took it over. So there is no keys :(, unless you get one from a user who players guild wars. Or from the retailer's that sell the triology DvD Dominator Matrix 03:14, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

I think I still have my trial key I got with Nightfall actually. I was going to give it to a group of friends unitl they found out their computer didn't have enough space due to WoW. --Master Fast 19:07, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

Password

I really need to change my password. I think it's old and kind of obvious if anyone knows my characters. The problem is that now I have to get into my PlayNC account, which I know I made back when the in-game store was new, and I can't remember what the account name or the password to my PlayNC account was. Is there any way I can just get the whole thing reset so I can make a new account with all my keys and everything so I can change my password? I know there is a way involving emailing all your access keys and account info to support, but at the time I made the account I was at the stage where I had to lie on everything just to make an account ANYWHERE.

By the way, I think it's really stupid that you have to login to PlayNC to change your password. You should be able to change it from the game client, like before. After all, I can't be the only one to made the stupid account just to get into the store and forget everything about the account. --Master Fast 01:17, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

Did you just confess to making to the account illegally (when you said you had to lie)? Regardless, have you tried resetting your password and see if you can change it after that? -- ab.er.rant 01:28, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

My game account is legal, my PlayNC account probably is, considering the fact that they wouldn't let me make one at the time with my real info. And yes, I have tried to reset my password by the login screen, but after I submit my email it just pops "Please click on the link below to make any changes to your account" --> www.PlayNC.com --Master Fast 01:56, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

But you do have a PlayNC account? Have you tried resetting the password there instead of the game client? If that doesn't work, your last resort would have to be support to help you with the password reset. -- ab.er.rant 02:21, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

Yes, I'm sure I have one. Isn't your PlayNC account the one you have to make when you first go into the in-game store? And I don't want to contact support there with this, they'd just give me the same answers to the typical questions. --Master Fast 19:14, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

Problem with Guild Wars launcher,please help!

→ moved from Talk:Main Page

Can someone email me? Because I haven't played Guild Wars for two weeks,and the last time I was online the Guild Wars launcher on my desktop worked fine,but now,the only thing it does is bring up the window that says,"Connecting to ArenaNet..." but it stays at 0 percent. I didn't do anything wrong did I? My account was <removed> and that's my mom's email,she gave her account to me. My email is <removed> What happened?Why won't the Guild Wars launcher on my desktop work? The area in the game I was at the last time I played was the outpost with the mission right after the Tahnnakai Temple(however you spell that temple in factions) mission,I was in the Kurzick place in Factions. The character I played was Sheena Of The Wind. Should I wait for the GW launcher? I didn't do anything wrong on the account,I didn't bot,spam,cyber,nothing! And my mom dosen't play GW anymore. Would one of you GW staff or crew or whatever or one of the 5,000,000 players please tell me what happened? I will check daily,or every other day so you can tell me here. I couldn't get to my email today because windows live hotmail was under maintenance. My guild in GW was Anime Fantasy[AnFa] in case you need to know that,or something.

• Never, ever give out your password.
• If your account was already linked to a PlayNC account, you may be able to recover the password from the plaync website.
• If not, or if that doesn't work, you need to contact support
• No, just having your email should not be enough to hack into your personal system. The full answer to "are you vulnerable?" depends on how good he is and how much other info you gave him, and is thus unanswerable in this forum.

Assuming you mean a GW account (vs wiki accounts) you could try contacting support, but the likely answer is you can't. You can either give the account to a friend, use it for storage, or save it for some other reason, but that's all I can think of to do with it. ~Scion~ (talk | contribs) 19:11, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

if you mean access key once you use it for one account you can't use it again.--話す priestess donut 寄付14:30, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

What do you mean by "character code" and "access code"? Maybe the Access key article could help... Biscuits 23:17, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

im talking about the character activation code and the access code, my question is can i use both codes, one to make a character and one to add the access code to another character --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:203.26.16.66 (talk).

Yes if you are talking about acess key and charactor slot key...Dominator Matrix 01:03, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, extra character slots stack with the character slots for multiple campaigns. -- Gordon Ecker 21:22, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

I don't know what you mean by "character activation code" and "access code". There is no such thing as a character activation code. There are access key codes that you add to your account. These unlock various things like campaigns, expansions, etc. You never have to enter a code to create a character, you just click on a free character slot in your account. You can't "add the access code to another character", since access codes apply only to accounts and not characters. I think you need to explain exactly what codes you have, and exactly what your are expecting to do with them. Once people understand what you are talking about better, they will be able to help you.

Wiki account

Is it possible to deactivate a Wikipedia account?

this is guild wars wiki, not wikipedia, so technically it's the wrong place to ask this question XD aside from that, you can't deactivate or delete your account yourself (or i just haven't found out how to yet). Inactive accounts are usually deleted automatically after a set time. - Y0_ich_halt 15:24, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

"Inactive accounts are usually deleted automatically after a set time." - that is not true. Inactive accounts that made contributions have to be kept to retain the information about the contributor. And no, it is not possible to deactivate accounts, just go inactive yourself ;) poke | talk 15:27, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

lol, won't the server overload sometime then? - Y0_ich_halt 15:49, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

While that's theoretically possible, on every wiki I've run or participated in the volume of content massively outweighed the number of users. MediaWiki is designed to handle all that mass, so I'd say it's not really likely. ~Scion~ [GRIPE] 16:47, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

Two Accounts

Hello. I have 2 legal gw accounts and I have a question. Can I run 2 accounts on my computer on the same time? I know that in wow I can run 2 accounts on one computer at the same time and they don't ban for this. Does arenanet can ban me for this? Is it legal?

You cannot run the Guild Wars client twice on a single computer Asuka 09:58, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

It's also not illegal to have two accounts, I know some people who have 5 (don't ask me WHY... o_O) and they do fine.- Vanguard 11:50, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

@Asuka, it is possible to run 2 copies of the GW client one on PC and thereby run two accounts side by side. I use a small program called GWMI for this purpose to transfer gold, drops, presents etc. between my two (legit) accounts. That said it's a horrendous burden on the CPU, I'd sooner use 2 PCs if I had them :) --BramStoker (talk, contribs) 11:59, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

No, I highly doubt it's against the rules. — ク Eloc 貢 15:59, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

if you use a program i think they allow that but if you change line of code in the dat file or any file relating to gw i think hey can ban you.if the program is using emulation of another computer thats technically another computer. i think not sure.--話す priestess donut 寄付23:23, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

useless guild wars

hi i have had my account banned for 3 days because guild wars think i have gone and got gold with real money when in acctuall fact my guild member gave me all his money and all his items to look after until he got a new account today but now i cant give him any of it back because i cant go online which is a major pain in the ass because now he is going to think i robbed him. if anyone has any advise on my situation please tell me but please do not tell me to go on the guild wars website and get support from there because there is no support its just a page of crap thats it so if u have a way i can get real support please let me know thanks --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:217.42.71.46 (talk).

Support. It's the only thing that can help you. -- Mini Me 11:39, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

This seems suspicious. Why did your friend need you to hold the items until he got a new account? Why couldn't he transfer them over himself? Did he sell his old account? Did he do something he know was going to get him banned? In other words, were you helping him do something or get away with doing something that he shouldn't have been doing? -- Gordon Ecker 04:27, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

You're probably over-thinking, Gordon. He could simply be giving the account to a friend or sibling, and he wants to be 100% sure he gets the items back. I mean, I wouldn't trust my brother... Calor 15:19, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

Storage tabs

I just created a Nightfall only account and discovered much to my dismay the storage only has 2 tabs beside crafting tab instead of 4 like my other 2 accounts. Can someone explain why please??? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Zacheas (talk • contribs) at 16:51, May 11, 2008 (UTC).

Because you don't have Factions and Prophecies on that account. You have one tab, then an additional one for each campaign. Calor 16:57, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

(Edit conflict) Each account you have will only have storage tabs for the games associated with it. The first game added; Nightfall in this case; adds two tabs then if you add Factions or Prophecies you will get another tab. Other accounts you have don't affect any other accounts you have or the amount of storage. --Kakarot 16:59, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Offline Friendslist

I'll post it here since nobody answers me in Talk:Friends List:

I'm looking for an application in which you can chat and see players in a guild and in your friends list, but without having to start Guild Wars. Something like Windows Live Messenger, but without having them to have an account. Does anyone know something like this, or, if not, who should I ask for something like this? << horsedrowner | talk | guild >> 09:16, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

If his friends don't have MSN, I'm thinking they probably won't have XFire either :D Anyway, even if you find something like that, I'm not sure whether it's even legal to use it, since it is a third-party program. -- ab.er.rant 02:36, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

anet does neither encourage using mods nor any other tools that modify guild wars, but they accept that players customize their game layout, as long as they don't bother anet with it and as long as it doesn't affect their gameplay. see anet's statements on the mod page. - Y0_ich_halt 16:01, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

Make sure your credit card information is correct. ¬ Wizårdbõÿ777(talk) 05:18, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

Awhile ago (back when you could only get the Bonus Mission Pack by buying US$30 worth of (non-Bonus Mission Pack) stuff in the online store), people were complaining about this sort of thing a lot. Apparently, the general consensus was that several credit card companies have blocked the GuildWars store as some sort of fraudolent thing (apparently they had "information" that the store was some sort of scam or not secured properly or something to that effect, which is obviously not true). I believe some people were able to call their credit card companies up personally and say that they are buying something from the GuildWars online store and if the company could please approve the transaction. Not sure if this worked with all the credit card companies that had this problem, though. I personally have been lucky that my credit card company doesn't seem to care. :op (although "lucky" may or may not be the appropriate word here...) --Dragon nataku 20:47, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

As the Guild Wars client checks if there is already an instance running, you would need to make indirect changes to the client; and exactly that is disallowed per EULA. The easiest solution is simply using a second computer. poke | talk 19:24, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

error 045

i have been suspended for 71 hours cuz ive been spamming or excessive messaging and all i was tryin to do was buy some dye all i said was buys some blue dyes for 50 each then i said buying all blue and yellow dyes 100 each. why would i be suspended for 71 hours for saying that. i think my suspension should be lifted sooner. just email me at <edit> --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:76.84.69.78 (talk).

I suggest you contact support. We are not Anet and have no control over those types of issues.-- Wynthyst 23:56, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

first of all, spamming chat in any way shape or form is unacceptable. 2nd, speak in proper english, PLEASE (if u arent english, well........at least dont make ur sentences run on). 3rd, your suspension is just, you spammed chat, apparently to bot exteremes, and thus you are banned for a few days, there are also things called dye traders, theres one in kamadan, and maybe your guild hall.--Raph Talky 00:35, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

Seriously. Following up "speak in proper english" with "u arent". Backsword 12:50, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

I don't think your suspension should be lifted sooner. Don't spam and use trade chat next time. -- ab.er.rant 01:47, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

Factions Dilemma

I own Prophecies and Nightfall and want to buy Factions. However, I was wondering if I bought the Collector's Edition (Prophecies and Factions), if I would get 2 extra character slots even though I have already purchased the Prophecies campaign. If not, does the original just go to waste? Or should I just buy Factions(Standard Edition)?

Moopy --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:68.95.122.50 (talk).

If you purchase AND merge all 3 campaigns under the same account, you should have a grand total of 8 character slots, it doesn't matter if you buy Standard or Collector's editions. Factions CE will give you these additional items. --BramStoker (talk, contribs) 12:10, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

If you merge a Collector's Edition with a Standard Edition, you'll still only get the bonus slots just once. -- ab.er.rant 15:10, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Lost Game Activation Card

I've played guild wars factions before, but i unistalled it , and now I want to play it again but I've lost my Game Activation Card.

What can I do ?

Thanks —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 85.139.128.47 (talk • contribs) at 19:29, June 11, 2008 (UTC).

simply download the game client from the official website (guildwars.com), install the client and log in with your old login data. if you don't remember either password or e-mail address, contact support - Y0_ich_halt 19:36, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Or if you still have the discs you can install from them. The key that you entered from the Game Activation card is only used to add the game to your account, so if you uninstall all you need to do is reinstall the client and can then log in to the account you created before to continue with your character(s). --Kakarot 19:42, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

CE and Minipet

I purchased Guild Wars Factions - Collectors Editon. After installing and starting the game, I was asked for a key. I tipped in the one on the back of a plastic card (like a credit card) and the account was granted, additional to some "spezial dances" - but no minipet - why? Where do I get it?

do /bonus thats how you get the mini.--話す priestess donut 寄付19:55, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

Need Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello thank you for helping me with my problem I tried to get on to my account to play guild wars plantem addition but it said my account has been blocked for account issues then somthing like (code25) i think it was that code but i would like help on this issue please:) or at least tell me whats going on thank you for your time:)my account is NwonknuUnknown@Live.Com i would be really happy if my account was open again for i spent all my savings for that game pleaase help me...

Three things - First, I don't know if it's a good idea to post your account name here; Second, you might want to try this page to identify what kind of code you have. Since I dont see Error 25 there, try again logging in to see what error you got to look it up on the list; Third, I highly reccomend contacting Support and failing that, try the Support Liason. Good luck! – Barinthus 08:27, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

Two players on one account at the same time

Is it possible for two players to play at one account at the same time? --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:Kal191 (talk).

No, it's not. It's also against the EULA to share your account with another person, although many people disregard that rule and it's almost non-enforceable. Biscuits 17:54, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

yup, odly enough, many people, who who never dare violate the EULA in any serious way, may share their accounts with family, children, etc.--Raph Talky 00:59, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

PlayNC game accounts

Alright i dont know if you can help me out on this but why not i logged in to a new playNC account and i wanted to edit my guildwars account so it asked me to enter my registration key i think so they can locate my account. anyways i do so and it says my account key is invalid and i retyped around 5 times and checked for wrong letters or numbers and nothing and yes i am sure this is my Registraton key not of a nother game or a trial account.--24.91.141.180 08:31, 21 June 2008 (UTC)

Are you sure you're not clicking on something to add a new account? You shouldn't have to enter any registration keys when you simply log into your account. (I didn't have to) It may be that you're trying to add a new account key, and the site is saying it's invalid because it's already been used. (ala when you created your original account) When you go to PlayNC.com, click "Accounts" -> Log in with your username and password -> click "Game Accounts" -> click on your Guild Wars account -> click one of the three links on the right to edit your account information. -- TERO talk 14:31, 21 June 2008 (UTC)

Will I loose my PlayNC games?

I'm having troubles on Guild Wars, where my computer keeps randomly re-booting. It's only when I play this game and I think there might be a problem with it. I want to re-install Guild Wars, but I'm afraid I might loose the Factions game I bought when I bought it off PlayNC and will have to re-buy it. If you know either what's wrong with my computer or if I'll loose this game, please let me know. --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:72.228.35.162 (talk).

No, campaign ownership is tracked by account. As long as you log in with the same user name and password, you can play Factions on any computer. -- Gordon Ecker 05:47, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

Try reinstalling guildwars, see if that fixes it. Beware you will have a long download though, probably many hours. If your computer is still randomly rebooting, then it's probably either overheating, or you have a graphics driver issue. Do you play any other games? If so, are they older that GW? If GW is your newest game, it could be placing too many demands on your computer. If you PC meets the system requirements to play the game, try downloading and installing the latest drivers for your graphics card (which you might want to get help from a computer person to do). Biscuits 11:43, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

Could be weak power supply, overheating, or virus. If it continues on, send it to a local repair shop. Dominator Matrix 01:09, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

Storage account

My storage and mules have been filling up with goldies and other usefull items so i got a 2nd account as a storage. But is it ok if i give the goldies to a friend of mine to hold while switch accounts, or can this be picked up as a "ebay gold" transfer???

greets,Hala 16:01, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

In the past some accounts were accidentally blocked because of that but if something like this happens, you should immediately report to the support, so that the accounts will be unblocked. In general this is not a violation of the EULA so it should not be an issue. poke | talk 16:07, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

I think it warrants mentioning that you should make sure this person is actually a friend...don't want to see another scam victim. -- TERO talk 20:27, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

Also, the account blocks were placed more for people trading gold for nothing in large amounts (100k) rather than items. Trading items between accounts has not to my knowledge ever triggered the account block.-- Wynthyst 20:33, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

Character slots

I have the prophecies campaign which has 6 professions and 4 character slots, I'm thinking about buying one of the other campaigns (probably nightfall) and i was wondering how many extra character slots that would give my account? --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:190.136.222.165 (talk).

If you only want to buy Nightfall for the extra character slots, it would be a lot easier (and cheaper!) to just buy some slots in the GuildWars online store. But if you want NF for the campaign, then nevermind. :op --Dragon nataku 21:48, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

how do i get another access key with out bying another game? --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:70.232.81.122 (talk).

You can't. Access keys are designed to be proof you have bought the game. If there is a problem with your current access key, contact support. Biscuits 12:39, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

The thing is... you're not supposed to get another key without buying another campaign/expansion/product... -- ab.er.rant 16:39, 29 June 2008 (UTC)
