Ip Exemption, question, maybe?

Ragain · #1 06-12-2016, 01:13 PM

My mother has seen me playing and she played when Kunark first came out as in interested in playing. However we don't have normal internet due to our location and we use the internet on our phones. We are both 2 separate plans, but are both verizon wireless. What's my IP says we have 2 different addresses, but are similar I assume due to the same provider. Now I have put in a IP exemption request to be safe, since we are in the same household, but really do I need it? There are so many scenarios where we are not even close to each other/household what not, but would still have the same IP addresses we have now.

Honestly don't know what the point of this is. 2 people want to play together, and sometimes are in the same house and not, but are technically on different, but similar Internet connections.

No you would not need it. Each of your phones has their own IP address.

You are playing EQ with your mother?

Does she like to play a priest class by any chance?

If you can both log in at the same time I don't think you need to worry about it. Just don't 2 box and nothing bad will happen. This includes just loggin on both accounts for a second to transfer items, rez yourself, buff yourself, and other stuff.

Its always interesting to see EQ span generations in families.

I remember many ppl on live esp early on in classic and velious era where entire families played together, sometimes husband/wife other times parent or parents and one kid or more.

Stepdad brought EQ home in August of 99. Him, My mom, Me(16) and my little brother(8) all played together taking turns on 2 accounts and 2 pc's.

My wife and I used to play together. We are just waiting for an IP Exemption to play together again. I also got my son and daughter into EQ. Now with a new baby boy on the way due late July I intend to get him involved in EQ as well. Just a nice family of gaming nerds. :P
