MabiPro: The Authentic Old-School Mabinogi Experience

So, I made a human and I was going to also make an elf so I could dabble in magic. When I created my character and finally hit "create" I was notified that I did not have a sufficient character card and I was given the option to purchase one. Now, I know this server is suppose to have no micro transactions but I tried to humor the notification anyway and went ahead and clicked on the link to open an ingame browser to "purchase" it. The browser refused to load and I even tried copying the whole address to my browser's (google chrome) address bar, with that notifying me that the server wasn't a thing.
So then, the question is... How does one create an alt?

You have to go to Filia and speak to Castanea so that you ally with the Elves. Once you ally with them you get a free elf assist card and you can use that to create your new elf character Once you do this you can un-ally and then ally with the giants so you get a giant character assist card too.

To create an alt character (elf or giant). You need to talk to NPC Casandra in Filia or Krug in Vales with the elves and giants keyword. You should be able to get the keyword by instantly talking to them. Once you do youll be able to accept their race, and gain a free card.

Alrighty, thank's for letting me know.

Hi there,

I understand there are some issues with the architecture to give character cards to players?

Was wondering if the reasoning could be explained in more detail technically perhaps the community can help?

im sure its related to finding a method thats not abusable it seems like they've completed the auth server portion of the database so its really just the matter of creating the web side of things and deploying it in a way that doesnt allow people to just spam cards
