    Trial Registration Woes

    The other day, I decided to give FFXI another try (having only played a few months when the game originally released in NA for PC) and downloaded the trial and requested a registration code. After a day passed and no email, I did some searching and discovered that people weren't getting their registration codes if they used a Yahoo email address; gmail, however, seemed to work. So, I requested again, this time using a gmail address, but now I get a message that reads:

    "Registration codes cannot be sent at this moment.
    Please wait and try again."

    This message has persisted for over 8 hours now, and I can't help but wonder if it's perhaps ip blocking me, because I've already 'successfully' requested a code with another email from this ip.

    So, I was wondering if any of the fine folk here could try for themselves and see if they get the same message (obviously, not using a yahoo email address) and if by chance, it works for you, if you'd be so kind as to PM me the registration code.

    Edit: Oh, the link to request the code might be helpful: https://secure.playonline.com/freetrialus/top.html

    I'm really looking forward to trying out the game again, and was hoping to have the rest of the day to play. I apologize if this is not the board for this and/or if it's not allowed here.

    Thanks.

    My guess is that it might be an anti-RMT measure.

    It's probably more to do with the wave of maintenances we've had lately more than anything. Alternatively try using a proxy to sign up for one?

    I had that problem a while back when I tried to get a trial key. Just wait a few days and try again.
