Cant create an account
I hit the create account option on the launcher and this pops up.
-ERROR: A valid username should be between 6 and 25 characters, and can contain alphanumeric characters, periods, commas, and underscores. Sequential underscores are invalid.-
The usernames i keep putting in are:
Skaler250
Cacerola250
LaWea250
Cacerola
Skaler

And i keep getting that error, i also tried from LOTRO.com and i got the same problem, any suggestions ?

It is because you are using something that has already been used. Need more uniqueness. There has been millions of accounts made and good chance those have been taken.

Or you're trying to create an account from a blacklisted country. (I'm not sure if there are still blacklisted areas, but this used to be the case, and you'd get this error, which didn't help at all :-()

Try signing up using a (free) VPN that gives you a USA address. This is just for signing up, you can play without it, after you've set up your account.

IIf you are having problems making an account on the website:
- Try different web browsers like Internet Explorer or Edge, etc.
- Make sure adblocker extentions are disabled and turn web scripts blockers off.
- Open a fresh browser, Type LOTRO.com in the URL bar and enter.
- It has a ReCaptcha thing that you have to check to complete the account, if you fail the reCaptcha, your signup fails.
- It has a Terms of Service and Privacy Policy Check mark that you have to complete for new account.
- Valid passwords are between 6 and 16 characters with at least one number and cannot contain apostrophes.
- Make sure you have confirmed the password.
- Make sure you put in an Email address that has not been used for any Turbine account.
- Make sure you have put in the date of your birth.
- Make sure your Username is unique to you. Maybe if you trying to use a common username it will fail without notice.
- If you are still failing, be aware SSG blocks IPs from certain regions of the world, try using a VPN to sign up, you can play without the VPN.

I think I got it to work in the end, it was the username it's in use but just errors and doesn't tell you whats wrong. The sign up is really poor, it's like something out of the 80's.

i think no one is using the username: LaranjoLouco0976 , so the sign in is broken : )

Thank you for your brilliant contribution to this thread.
