Is there a free trial available? Or some way to go about getting one? My friend is interested in trying the game out but we couldn't find anything of the sort on the main page.

    IMO, no offense to you, but MMO's biggest downfall is having free trials.

    It is the FREE gateway for Gold farmers to spam, spam and more spam without their original accounts being found out and banned.

    I know that free trials are a way to promote the game and get people enticed to play, but as the gold farming spam community is on the continual up rise MMO's are better without them

    if there is a free trial make sure you devs remove the ability to send tells ingame and restrict how much Free Trial members can use the chatbox.. anyone wh wants to really communicate ingame uses Vent or TS

    Sick of getting 70+ Gold Spam every 2 days all in DIFF ACCOUNTS!

    None taken. I agree, free trials are a doorway for gold farmers and personally I hate it. I just wanted to know one way or the other. If there is none then so be it.

    Thanks for the info.
