huh??
« on: December 13, 2012, 08:30:37 PM »
ok so I am biting the bullet and trying to register for CO. I get down to the email part and I type in my primary email addy and I get an error saying I can't use that email addy because someone is already using it. Du huh??? This is the first time I have even gone to the CO website let alone tried to register. I'm a tad concerned now.

Edit: Nevermind I think I figured it out. I have an account with another of their games I think   ;D

                                       We'll begin with a spin, traveling in the world of my creation. What we'll see will defy explanation.

You actually can log into CO with the same authentication info as whatever other game (I'm assuming STO). You have to be careful if you decide to buy a month of Gold level. It will ask you which game you're buying the time for, but I believe STO is first on the choice list. Just pay attention.
I wouldn't use the word "replace," but there's no word for "take over for you and make everything better almost immediately," so we just say "replace."

I played PWI for a short time and hated it. I honestly don't even remember my log in info and wanted a new account name so it all worked out for the best.

I had already paid a month when I realized my global name is stupid. C'est la vie. :)

My global is from Neverwinter. So yeah. Drow name in super hero game. I imagine a lot of people's globals aren't quite right. My friends from CoH were like, what on earth is THAT?

I didn't realize that, in setting up a user name, I was actually setting up my global name. I used my email username, so it's "atring." I think I may have the lamest global name in the game.
