Family?

[Aspect]

Hello, I been in EQ since it first launched, and heard about the Emu from some friends. I jumped at the opportunity to see the game like it was back in the day. I got it all setup, all the required changes, etc done, and logged in for my first Back to the Past experience, it reminded how much different the game was back then, but nostalgia being what it is, I talked my wife and son into tryin it out with me (they never played back at launch, and are only familiar with the current Live EQ). Well, we run into a problem that my wife and son cannot play at the same time as me due to IP restrictions. Is there some way to get all 3 of us in at the same time? They have their own accounts, computers, etc. Something about temporary IP block etc... Can someone guide me in what I need to do to let them play with me in the game? Not being able to play with them would be kind of a deal breaker for me, and would hope those in charge of this sort of thing have some kind of deal so family can play together.... Look forward to hearing from someone asap.

Hmm, over 24 hours, and no admin response to the issue... Do the admin(s) of the server frequent the forums for issues on p1999?

You have to make a petition in the petition forum and ask for exemption. The restriction exists to prevent two boxing.

Be prepared to wait awhile, unless you get lucky; devs are busy.
