Greetings Adventurers!

Open up new solo gameplay possibilities you've only dreamed about. Got two computers? Use the free account key provided in this email and your existing software to start a second account and play two characters together -- at the same time! How cool would it be to build a cleric or druid of your own and have them at your fingertips for buffs, healing and more? Or better yet, get a friend to join you by giving him or her this free account key. Now your friend has no excuse not to come adventure with you. Or even better still, invite a family member. Remember, the family that plays together stays together.

Whatever direction you choose to go, you can't go wrong! Below is an EverQuest Trilogy account key that will open a new EQ account for a FREE 30 DAY TRIAL. Take advantage of this opportunity to enrich your EverQuest experience before this promotion expires on June 30th, 2002. The enclosed account key is good for a free 30-day subscription (regular account charges applicable thereafter) and requires the EverQuest Trilogy software.

Your EverQuest Trilogy Account Key: XXXXXXXXXXX
(sorry i wont give out the account key that they gave me because i am letting my little cussin use it )

Internet Connection Required; players are responsible for all applicable internet fees. Valid credit card or unused EverQuest game card required for registration. For this limited promotional period (until June 30th, 2002), we hereby authorize you to use, or make one copy of, or loan your EverQuest software to one person -- together with the account key referenced above -- to open or enable another to open one new EverQuest account. All accounts, including the new account permitted herein, are subject to the EverQuest User Agreement and Software License.

cool, perhaps this will allow us to make copies of the actual eq world db and improve source codes, get things like PvP Server scripts, ect...

O6scured to me it just seems that this is promoting multiple accounts players , no mantion of giving something to the emu or even saying anything about the emu , its more like play free for a month and give us some more cash after that , verant seems to be in a need of big money those times

O6scured · #4 05-29-2002, 06:03 PM

might have read it wrong... what I took from it was u can play network... u and a friend alone. Thought it said something bout single player, thats where my thoughts came from

they just mean playing with yourself. on live servers.

They will be coming out with a single player EQ, just not sure when, can't wait till it happens though. It will be almost like Diablo 2 except hella better, and I would think they need money, they have a PS2 game, EQ2 coming soon, Planes of Power expansion right around the corner, and don't forget the EverQuest board game. Then again, do they really need more money?

Trumpcard · #7 05-30-2002, 12:02 AM

All companies need more money... Thats their purpose for existing...

and there you go!

I think they've lost some accounts from the age-old vets, and considering all their monumental projects, they're fishing for funds.

Is there really a solo version of EQ coming out? If so, then where's the info on it?

Thanks!

Baron Sprite · #11 05-30-2002, 10:48 AM

I haven't heard anything on SP eq either, what fun would that be anyways :p

Some mis-spellings, some terms not used by SoE; makes them sound unprofessional, says 30 days free from May 30, and that would be June 29th then. Pretty obvious fake.

An overall: B-

Try harder next time when trying to fake a letter from SoE

drunk_punk · #13 05-30-2002, 03:27 PM

im sorry if you think i faked it but i didnt fake it.
infact i have already used the key code they gave me to make a account for my little cussin
and if you dont believe me that its real give me your email address and i will send you the email. i will forword it to you. so you can see that its real. it has all there graphics that they put into there emails to make them look nice. and it sais right on it
the address that sent it to me
the address is
The Station@sony.com
if there is any other way that you would like me to prove to you that it is a real email then tell me and i will do so.
because i am truly hurt that someone would say i forged an email that i never did.
