    Probably permissions got mixed up (happened to me the other day) Submit a ticket to Support and they should be able to re-enable it.

    So I'm curious how do you gain access to the PTS? I've been here since 2012 and registered in September 2013....

    Think it was via the initial beta request process. Personally it was as a Mac client tester.

    They will be making the PTS server public for the next update on apparently which is good. They will take it down between update testings. I guess they will post details as and when this happens after Update 1.1 goes live.

    It's only for people who were very active during the various betas (reporting bugs and what-not), aka people who actually helped beta test rather than just play the game lol.

    Our long-term goal is for anyone who has an active subscription for The Elder Scrolls Online to have access to the public test server when it is open. We are still working out the logistics.

    I signed up for beta when they first opened the beta application. I remember they were even asking for your 
    dxdiag.exe
    information, etc.

    I did. I wrote a bunch of bug reports--every time I encountered one--and feedback.

    Yeah, or attention *** who claimed crafting to be unavailable until level 10 while reviewing the game at level8 just because having a youtube channel.

    Politics mostly.. but at least we had some fun with some of the attention queens crying a river over a pts update messing with their royal stuff.
