               Same thing as was mentioned Here where they locked roughly 20,000 of us out of our accounts.

               I hope I'm not wrong but I could have sworn you didn't have to make a BioWare account at all to play NWN online.  Just make an account in-game and you're good.  At least that's what I thought was the case...(?)

               You can create a new account, and go play, but it has no connection to your old data, like cd keys etc... it is a completelly NEW account, and you end up with activation email etc... which is worthless as you end up with the lame screens that they have provided with NO ACCESS to your data.  No connection to NWN forums etc.


Not sure on whether or not the premium mods will work either... but I think they still should as long as the activation servers are still connected and running.  Hopefully, Bioware will not mess with those.

Unfortunately those of us playing on server side campaigns/PWs can't access our characters as long as we're locked out of our Bioware accounts. Server side character storage is by Bioware username. Bioware changed the passwords of compromised accounts (a good thing) but this leaves us locked out of our character folders on other servers (a sucky thing).
