It's there and it's turned on, but you will need to be very high level to play it. And you can't start it just by sailing to Somerset even at level 50.
Rev
1 in thread Multiple Login (for a Family Account) [Ask an FLS Developer!]
You can't play two characters on one account at the same time.

We have no plans to make this option available.

All codes work with all other codes. Any preorder codes you got from any source will work with any retail codes.

What about:
2.A flag with a lady on it (paint/not photo)
3.Dragons or asian symbols/letters or both
4.Can I put a name on flags?
I have to be brief, but quickly:

1. Always. It's what this whole forum is for!
2. "Painted" -- no, not unless you can visually convey how the paint would flake off from the sail being constantly furled and unfurled in the weather. Ladies are fine so long as they're decently covered and in a reasonably period style.
3. Yes.
4. If you like, but keep in mind the text will be mirrored on one side. Perfectly acceptable, but some people don't want that.

More info can be garnered from the 2D User Content Guide.

We have no prohibitions against CRT or buying multiple subscriptions. As always we'll be watching to see how the economy develops and changes over time, but no, we aren't particularly worried by these issues.

1 in thread FLS, any plans at all for the Freetrader? [Ask an FLS Developer!]
I leveled to 19 as a Freetrader in the open beta and had no problems in PvE ship combat. I disagree that the career is nerfed as regards combat. It's definitely different, but it's not actually weak. We'll always be evaluating skills and careers and making adjustments, but we have no plan for major changes to freetraders at this time.

We may have a couple of devs there for some panels, but we won't have any kind of public presence.

There is no grace period. As of 1/22, you will need a retail key to play the game. However, your characters will still be there whenever you do get the retail key and enter it. No data will be changed or lost.
Rev
1 in thread FREE Pre-Boarding Keys? [Ask an FLS Developer!]
If retailers let you return the preorder box after you've consumed a key, it doesn't bother us. They set their own policies as regards returns.

They're most likely reward items (Like, I just got a spiffy new coat on my Freetrader). We like you to figure them out for yourselves, so we don't have a full listing of them.
