RAF Question Granting levels and Game Installation

Hey there,
I would first like to thank the community for all the awesome guides and help. I searched through the forums but i couldnt find the answer to my question which is do i need to purchase a 2nd game copy in order to obtain a 2nd key (if needed)? I know that there needs to be another active paid account I understand that, and I also understand that the game is available to be downloaded from the web, however my question is whether I can RAF another account and just run 1 copy of wow 2x? My second question is about granting levels to a lower level-is this available cross faction? Say i wanted to grant level(s) to a horde character, but I am alliance faction is this possible by just having him or her close to him as is required with normal level grants?
Much thanks for any advice ^^

you can run both WoW's from the same install. no need to install again. just sign up for a new account.

at the accont level, at their website, you can either purchase the games there, or enter in the CD key from a box you've already purchased.
i would suggest going out there and getting a box, then entering in the CD key. there has been hiccups when it comes to purchasing the game online.

as for the cross faction level gifting, i've never done that so i cant help you there.

The cross level gifting is not an option, you will only be able to gift levels to a member in your group and within your link. Since you cannot link Alliance to Horde or Horde to Alliance you will not be able to gift a level.

iirc you get a free month of playtime if you purchase a boxed copy of the game whereas if you buy the key only online you dont get the free month.

I think it was Circuit City that has the battlechest (wow&bc) bundle for $39.99 and you get 2 free months of playtime. 1 for the vanilla wow purchase and another for the burning crusade expansion.

And no you cannot grant levels across the factions. You have to party together the toon that is granting and the toon that is being granted to.
