double IP request processing time

DevGrousis · #1 02-04-2011, 05:59 PM

wow really?

that seems ridiculously long lol

Are they actually BLOCKED from both logging in at the same time without them being approved? or is it more just a nod that its ok from the staff?

because one is playing an erudite SK and the other a wood elf ranger. they wont even be on the same side of the world as each other until later on. what i'm asking is, can they both play for now and then by the time the dev's approve it, they'll probably be more closer to the level where they can start grouping together.

No. You physically cannot log in from the same IP domain unless you use some workaround program. They actually place an exemption to normally existing IP blocking rules.

It takes a while. Deal with it. They're also not very tolerant of people complaining about the wait time - and although you certainly don't have the attitude of some of the guys i've seen complain about it, complaining at all doesn't help the process. I wouldn't be surprised if they delayed processing it specifically because someone complained.

thanks for answering the question

no thanks for your bullshit. i had zero attitude and i was definitely not complaining. i was stating a fact that for something so simple, it sure takes a long time for them to process. i'm sure there is a reason why it takes so long, and i wasnt even inquiring about why.

hit the x botton on your browser and go back to newbing in the game.

He was trying to help and implied that you have a better attitude than the usual people complaining about the duration. Good job proving him wrong.

Haha...I've just seen them come down pretty hard on people for just "asking," albeit multiple times, why their IP exemption was taking so long.

I'll go back to "Newbing it up in game" now [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

You get a message saying that you can not log on, until the request clears.

Yea my friend and I also requested one for both of us last week because on the weekends 2 or 3 of us get together at each others houses and play EQ. Since none of us have got the IP Exemption yet we have to resort to playing the EZ server when we hang out. Its fun but it would be nice for us all to lvl together and drinking at the same time =). Anyone know if you can have 3-4 on the same IP with the exemption or is it a limit of 2?
