Trying to open a 3rd account and PLEX it, but when I try to login and create a toon it says "please use only 1 trial or sub account".

How the hell am I supposed to open a new account using my PLEX that I took from freighter gank?

So looks like you got more that two trials.... or normal account + trial account... Well Sell plex on main - sent isk to alt trial acccount - log off normal account - login on trial - buy plex on trial, activiate it, enjoy, form now you can run multi box at same time.

You dont need plex to open - create new account, client and trail are for free... all what you need, read above.

EvE isn't game, its style of living.

I have 2 paid and trying to open a 3rd. Closed 1 window and just to login to trial one again, wtf.

How are they doing this, by email address or somthing?

If I can't figure it out within the next 5 mins, screw it. 1 less account for CCP, this is ********. Why make it hard to open accounts???

lol, put the PLEX in a can at a planet in some quiet system then pick it up with your alt
OR just sell the PLEX to market, then send your new alt ISK, buy it off market, apply it.

One way's safe, the other is free.

you can run one client in a VM then it can't detect the other.

they do it because they don't want people creating trial accounts to use for scouts or whatever but anyone with half a brain can get around it.

If you want to run a trial account you can not have any other accounts running. Hence the methods I suggested that don't require having both online simultanously. Once you activate with the PLEX the restriction is lifted of course.
