Accounts are created automatically when you attempt to connect to the shard. As long as the account name that you choose is not in use when you type it in, the first time that you do so it will automatically create the account.

Please keep in mind that there is a 3 account per person limit here on UOSA.

The first time you launch the client, you will input your desired Account Username and Password, as if your Account already exists: if the Username is free, the Account is temporarily registered and you will continue to character generation and eventually arrive in-game; if the Username is already in-use by another player, you will receive a "wrong password" log-in error.

Once you have your 1st character arrive in-game, you will be prompted to provide an Email address for Account validation: UOSA will then send a validation code in an Email to the address you have given; you will need to use the validation code before the next game-server reset, or that code will become invalid; I'm not sure how persistent unvalidated Accounts are, but they are not permanent, and would be auto-deleted eventually.

The Account Validation code is entered in-game, in the same manner as typing text for conversation with an NPC or player; there is no connection to your Forum Account here, or your MyUOSA Account.

I really don't know if another player in-game would see you "say" your validation code, but it doesn't matter: that code ONLY validates ONLY your new Account, and is ONLY good until next system refresh; there's nothing anyone else can do with it, nor any way for them to make it stop working for you.

If you need any tips with character generation, or just plain-old "starting out", ask more questions: you are welcome.

Have fun.

Accounts never get deleted whether they are registered or not.
