#889145 Gift Code FAQ

Posted by Zorg on 11 September 2014 - 06:47

Just a brief run down of some of the many questions I've been asked about Gift Codes.

 

How do I buy one?

Go place an order for the items you want in our shop, but before you click that big payment button at the end check the box that says "Convert purchase in to Gift Codes I can give to other people"

 

I don't see the check box on the payment page?

You're either using a gift / discount code and trying to make it a new gift, sneaky! Or you already own the Fallen Sword Starter Pack (or other limited per account item) in your order and as such can't purchase a second, so your order is being forced in to gift mode!

 

What if I buy a gift code during a bonus sale?

The bonus depends purely on when you claim the code and not at all on when you purchase it. So if you buy a gift code during a bonus FSP sale and use it after the sale ends, no bonus. If you buy a gift code outside a sale and then use it during one, bonus!

 

Can we trade in game currencies for gift codes with other players?

Of course, as long as you're not scamming people we don't mind. If someone wants to farm a million gold and trade it for a starter pack / subscription gift code then go for it!

 

Can I use the gift code on myself?

Yes! If you purchase a gift code for your spouse then get a divorce you can totally use that gift code yourself (unless your spouse gets it in the divorce settlement...)




#283 Guide to Account Merging and FAQ

Posted by Zorg on 29 September 2012 - 14:00

All our games have now been added to the Hunted Cow portal and you may now merge your old game accounts in to new Hunted Cow global accounts.

When you go to the game from this site, using one of the links here you'll arrive with a token that identifies who you are. You'll then be given the option to either create a new account (usually just by filling out a game character name) or merge an old account.

If you merge an old account in to your Hunted Cow account future visits will simply log you in to that account on arrival.

What about my character name?
Names on our various games are unique to that site, the display name you pick here is just for the forums. So you'll get to keep your old name on any game we merge in to.

I made a new account instead of merging my old account!
Oops, you'll have to contact support using the bar at the top of our pages and ask them to remove your new accidentally created account so you can go back and merge your already existing account.

What if I have more than one account on a game?
Well, that's not allowed! Except on Gothador and Solar Fleet, when you arrive there you'll be asked which character you wish to login with and given the option to add more characters to your Hunted Cow account if you wish.

But my name on a game is different to my name here!
We know this can be confusing, but if you're in a games forum you'll see posters game details below their avatar to the left. We'll be adding more detailed profiles soon as well so you can see all the characters a player has.

But I don't want to merge my accounts! :(
Well aren't you grumpy, we'll be giving various incentives and rewards for doing so along the way and we think this new system is a vast improvement over the old segregated accounts, forums and support systems.

Feel free to post any other questions you have regarding merges here and I'll do my best to answer them!
