[WOW] Little help with trial acct?

preachermeat

Alright, so the wow forums are completely useless, the wow customer support crew is useless AND asleep apparantly, and I've been trying to get this to work...so here's my problem. I went out and bought the 3 dollar w0w trial, installed, everything's going great until I get to the final part of verifying my trial account...I get an error 203, which seems to be completely nonspecific. I've tried everything the wow forums suggested, nothing worked. Any ideas, o great oracle of knowledge?

No answer for you, but I am curious as to why you paid $3 for a trial instead of just downloading it for free from the WoW site.

heh, basically because downloading would've meant eating all my bandwidth for like...half a week. and my girl uses this computer as well, so my luck would be "oh, look...99% downloaded..but I need to check my myspace, and your stuff's making it take forever! BZZT". So while in best buy the demo caught my eye.

Isn't the Blizzard downloader just a torrent program? I'm pretty sure you can stop and resume downloads ...

What year and/or dictatorship do you suffer in to have such restrictive bandwidth limits?

preachermeat

heh, don't laugh..but I live in a hotel right now, and the wireless network is, to say the least, a bit iffy. Other than that, I've got a request. Could one of you fine fine fancy folk try creating a trial account, see if you have better luck than me? I'm basically makin this 10 day a throwaway, to see if I actually want to buy the game, so personal info isn't necessary. PM me if you feel like it, I need to run grab smokes.
