RIFT: Ascend a Friend and seven day trials announced

TRION are looking for new recruits with the launch of their seven day trial.
The MMO RIFT has been out a few months now and is still attracting new players, so help things along, TRION has launched a special seven day trial version of the game.
Now would be a good time to try the game out as TRION are about to launch their v1.2 update today which comes with the new LFG tool, wardrobe, updated content and more. We’re still hooked into the game, so if that’s not recommendation enough, I don’t know what is.
TRION is also launching the Ascend a Friend program where players can pass on seven day passes to friends, and if that person buys the game, the player can receive the following rewards:
Ascend 1 Friend – It’s like getting two friends for the price of one! If just a single buddy purchases RIFT, you’ll receive Courage, a fiercely loyal and utterly adorable canine companion.
Ascend 2 Friends – You’re immensely popular, and you know it. Demonstrate this undeniable fact by donning the glorious Trailblazer Hat, which you’ll receive after Ascending a pair of peers.  
Ascend 3 Friends – You don’t get this many friends through charm alone. By bringing three new subscribers into the game, you’ll receive the Swift Ember Steed mount, a terrifying equine wreathed in flame that is sure to turn heads in 
If you do take the plunge then pop over to RIFT: IncGamers where the team there will help you out with any questions and there are some good guides as well to get you started
