Get two RAF accounts together in group before they are upgraded from trial

[XGamerX]

So lately blizzard has been taking 3-4 days to upgrade accounts from "trial" status even when entering the keys directly from the box

this sucks for trying to create 2 new RAF accounts that are both bran new because you cant invite eachother to group

here is a little trick we used (might be obvious to some but I didnt think of it right away so maybe not)

Log onto an account that is already full active and add both RAF accounts on realid

invite them both to group, and then leave group and the 2 "trial" accounts will remain in group together and can even summon eachother even though they still cant speak in chat or trade etc.

So far we are nearly level 40 and running dungeons but both of us are still "trial" status (even though both of us are MoP upgraded all the way)

enjoy!

REPOST!!! Jk.... lol
or am i?


not a bad idea, never thought of it

This is beyond common sense. Nothing here is an exploit, and I have no idea what made you think it was.
Post this in guides.

So your telling me that a method of getting around a system in which blizzard clearly implimented for a reason isnt an exploit?

I am sorry but you sir need to look up the word exploit
this is certainly not intended to be done and therefor is an exploit


it may be a simple exploit but it is still an exploit--- and it is people like you who cause people to be afraid to post
GTFO

How did you get to level 40 if they are both trial locked still perhaps your sitting on a bigger exploit than you think hehe

Wow I wish I could minus rep people for being douches. Anyway, if he is seriously breaking the lvl 20 barrier this would be amazing. I would like to see some confirmation on this first though. If so, this is a massive exploit, and a really cool one at that. I still would like to see some type of confirmation or proof plz?

I dunno about you but I've done this for ages.. tho you can't trade items with eachother but it's really just common sense to me

Did you even read the post?

He upgraded to battle chest but the account still has starter restrictions on it, which means he can't invite the other new account he just RAFed with.

to circumvent this he just had a full account make the party and invite them both.

I don't see why Dev is getting so much sh*t. He's right, you know. This is more of a guide, and is basically common sense.

Really? I make people not want to post? I'm helping you avoid an infraction by asking you to make the thread in an appropriate section; and on top of that pointing out why, which can only make people more wise about the meaning of an exploit. The more offensive language such as:

GTFO

douche

dick

Is why people are afraid of posting.

So let's look at why this isn't an exploit, but rather a guide:

An exploit is something that allows you to do something that is not intended.
Now we have that established, let's look at what the intended and unintended features in play here are:

Inviting someone to a group is an intended feature of WoW.

Inviting someone to a group before buying the game is not intended.

Leaving a group after doing so is intended.

So, now we can look at how this "exploit' actually works.
Player A has a paid account, players B and C are flagged as trials (though they could be paid, it makes no difference).
Player A invites player B. This is an intended feature.
Player A invites player C. This is an intended feature.
Player A leaves the group. This is an intended feature.
Everything that happened above is intended by those who created the game. Therefore, there is no exploit happening at any point.

What this does allow you to do is have two trial accounts in the same group, getting around the block created in case anyone with a trial account decides to spam invite people as a method of harassment. Not being able to invite a trial is a side effect of this, and you have circumvented this using a perfectly legitimate method. Therefore, this should be posted in guides.

I hope you understand now, and thank you for reading!

Blizzard didn't implement the "stuck on trial status" for a reason its a problem with digitally paying for the games if you bought a hard copy you would upgrade instantly goes in guides and its not actually "trial status" you can go past the level cap its just blizzard finalizing your payment i have done this you should also be able to join a guild even though you are "trial status"

[empty_skillz]

i THOUGHT level cap was 20?

[seakwell]

While i do disagree with the "exploit" of this, i see what you're getting at and feel it is posted in the right thread.
Then again, thats just my opinion. Cant control other people.
Nevertheless keep it up xgamerx ( thanks again for that engineering lvl :3 )

Limitation from trial accounts are getting lifted one after the other.

For instance :
Immediatly after the payment you can level your char. past the level 20.
[12h-72h] later you can wisp & invite people

Him being able to put his char level 40 isn't a bug.

And for the "method" to be able to group 2 people who don't have the right to invite, seems like common sense to me ... but heh, don't wanna "GTFO / be a dick & douche" :- )
