I tried to enter my account key for the first time to start up beta, and it is TAKEN. This sucks cause i was looking forward to this moment for a while now and it seems like ill have to wait a bit longer. I emailed sony though, maybe they will help me out.

Anyone have any idea though?

Did you get the key from a friend or off your CD?

it was from the exclusive beta email. Its not like someone hacked my mail or something, it just looks like it was a mix up. This is not from being reffered either. I just wanted to get a head start on the download so i could play later tonite or tomorow, but thats not happening now.

Have you tried it with caps or with no caps? Might be case specific.... I'm just guessing though. I remember similar problems that folks had with other games concerning the CD Keys.

If that doesn't work, definitely contact SOE.

did you just now get into beta?

b/c that doesn't make much sense, seeing as how they dont send out exclusive keys anymore (not counting the "refer a friend" thing)

I just got it, and it says exclusive. Ive tried it caps, no caps, everything. I made sure the 0s (zeroes) werent o's, this is really getting me down, i guess i shouldnt get my hopes up for anything ever again.

its from [email protected]
It is real, i was told that other people have had this problem by a friend who is in beta, but i have yet to hear anything. I could really use some help seeing that i really want to play this game.

Email Sony

I already did. Maybe they will actually respond, but it usually takes a long time (knowing from EQ experiences) even though i directly emailed the beta people

Hmm, seems like a weird address for sony to be using. Most all of SOE's email address are [email protected]

One of my outfit mates got an exclusive email today too. I think it could have been a mixup. No one is supposed to still be getting exclusive mails. His works tho :D

Send more e-mails. The one things 100 days /played has taught me is that in order to get Sont to do anything you have to harass them.
