Can't create a Dungeon Runners Account
#45788 - 01/30/08 12:19 PM

I saw a couple of people post on the mmorpg.com DR board that they couldn't create an account, so I tried it myself. Sure enough, after you attempt to create an account you get the following error message:

Quote:


Error

A general error has occurred.





I've recommended that they open an official support ticket, but hope somebody would see it here.

Confirmed on our end, we're looking into it.

Thanks for the heads up Ripper!

It appears that this problem occurs when players use the "quickstart" account creation page.

As a temporary workaround players can create a Dungeon Runners account via the PlayNC store:

Go to http://plaync.com
Click on the "store" tab (left hand side)
Locate Dungeon Runners and click on "Get Now"
Log in using your PlayNC Account (or on the right hand side click "Create Account" for a new PlayNC Account)

Sorry for the trouble!

The web team that manages account creation is working on it.

They've reported (and a quick test verified) that creating an account by starting at the PlayNC Store still works (it will require going through a moderately more painful PlayNC account creation process, if you don't already have a PlayNC account). They're working on fixing the problem for the QuickStart process, as well.

Cool, thanks Dooms and Crickette. I've copied your responses on the mmorpg.com board.

...and visiting https://secure.plaync.com/cgi-bin/quickStart.pl should be working again now.

Tested and good to go. Rock on! Thanks guys.

On a side note, is this thread a record breaker for the most number of dev responses and different red names? Woot!
