Reactivating an account?

Unread post by Gumballs »

Okay, so my ex boyfriend no longer plays WoW. I ended up talking to him for the first time in a few months last night, and when I said I'm still playing he told me that if I somehow get the account active, I can have all his gold and stuff. This would be really awesome since that's 7k straight gold, nearly all the mats to the vial of the sands, as well as a bunch of other stuff.

I was just wondering if there is any sort of reactivation trial that will not cost me any money. Something like a 10 day free trial for already existing accounts (he's upgraded to Cata already). If there is it would be perfect for me to temporarily revive his account and trade everything over.

If there is not I was thinking about the scroll of resurrection. With that I can send him an invite, he can accept it & I can pay for a month + get a month free, which means in reality I'm just paying for another month on my account and getting all his goodies.

Any thoughts or ideas?

I think Scroll of Resurrection is your best bet. Looks to me like you won't need to pay anything on his account - sending him the scroll gets his account 10 days, that should be plenty to send things over. After that, you just don't resub on his account and nobody's the worse off.

Oh it gets it 10 days? I couldn't find anything that said that but I had a feeling there was something like that. Awesome :)

Yeah, in that regard it's a great little tool. :)

You can send a friend an invitation to try WoW again for 10 Days FREE, and if that trial leads to your friend re-subscribing for at least one full month, then you'll receive a month FREE as a result.
