After my World Of Warcraft trial ends do I have to make another account?
Posted on 2005 under Game Questions | 14 Comments3 Oct
When my World of Warcraft 10 Day trial ends, and when I buy the retail version, and start paying for my WoW membership do I have to make another account? I mean, I made a account in the trial version, but will I be able to keep that account in the retail version?

No, your username is stored for a few months until you get a new subscription.

Yeah, your account is kept forever, even if you never pay for it. So yes, even years from now you can activate the account and keep all your characters.

Well, since you made an account then that’s your account. No matter how you receive game time you will always have that account to play on. So to answer your question, just get the retail version (or buy it online) and give WoW.com your payment info.

Yep, if you really want to escape this cruel world then buy the game. Prepare 6 months of food and pre pay the rent and then start playing like crazy until you’re the highest ranked guy in the game.

no, you may continue on that account after you purchase the game. yet, the account is only stored for 14 days in the server after your trial ends.
