I recently signed up for a trial but then upgraded to subscription now i wanted an alt so i thought recruit a friend from my main account but when i try to log in to alt account it says we appreciate your enthusiasm but please limit yourself to 1 trial or paid subscriptions

Do I have to upgrade this trial before i use it ? am i missing something? is it just that both cant be logged in at same time?

You can't log in to a trial account and a paid account at the same time.

So, yes, if you want to use both accounts at the same time you must upgrade your trial.

EVE's policy on multiple client on the SAME machine:

You can run as many clients as you want on your machine (up till your machines limit of course) as long as they are paying accounts.

This is to prevent people from making free throw away alts for duties like scouting.

So you have basically 2 options:

1.) Make both accounts a paid account so you can log them in at the same time on the same machine.

2.) Get a 2nd machine. It doesn't matter if those things are sitting next to each other, as long as they are seperate you can log both in (1 on each).

You can. It's probably against the rules for me to say how, but it's possible and it's not even that hard to figure out. I don't recommend doing it though.

You can run a sub account and a trail account on the same computer at the same time. When you log into the trial account you will get a pop-up asking you to limit the accounts. You just click okay and you can log right in.

I recently upgraded my alt to a sub but for the 21 day trial I had both my main and alt running all the time.

Start the day off slow and taper off from there.
