Got a friend that has a inactive account. He wants to find out how much isk, aura he has in hopes to have enough to buy a plex to get back in the game.

Basically you can activate an inactive account for 5hrs to do stuff like checking your wallet and buying/activating PLEX. No idea if this is changed in the meantime though as that thread is from 2011.

You can certainly use the hours for PLEX to check it, but CCP frowns on that. It may come back to bite your friend on the ass when he needs that option in the future.

Not that it really matters since the change to allow gifting time from an active acct, but worth mentioning anyway.

Note that once you used the Hours-option and you let it run out again, you will not be able to use it again so the next time you wish to do something with the account you will need to activate it. Eg sub it.

So I'd suggest not "abusing" the Hours-option.

Thanks guy. Did not know about the hours for plex. That's a great idea ccp. Will tell my friend what you both said. Have a great day and fly safe.

I have used Evemon for this with some success if you have an API registered.

you can just use the api, it will work for expired accounts.

Can you still register an API after game time has elapsed?
