Account Sharing

[Asmodeous]

Fair call blitz. But even if its stating in the rules and everythings being interpreted 'correctly' would it be fair to say people are still going to pm admins over stolen accounts?

Ill put another point forward. Clearly theres still been account sharing and there probably always will be. How is it going to be enforced? Im glad accounts simply wont be siezed due to account sharing. But if i let my girlfriend play this account who clearly has a different or the kid play my account, will rules be enforced on that? Or are they going to have to break a series of rules. Lets say boarder abuse, cussing etc for the "account sharing is not permitted" rule to be slapped on top of that?

I suppose since its been brought up this isnt all entirely clear. So a scenario of when this would be enforced to when it wouldnt be enforced so clear boundries on what one can or cannot do would be excellent.

Because since this has been added in we definately know account sharing is still happening. I see your point blitz in people wanting admin help when something goes wrong.

If the recovery feature is implimented will account sharing be allowed? Since theres more than ample ability for that player off their own accord to recover their account if stolen and if they dont in that period of time they would truly had to have been muppets not to do so.

this is a very good point - surely we still have to discuss how this option would impact the rules involved... thank you for bringing up ahead of time

So the pms wont stop then. Its good that there will be an easy response backed up with rules on that.

On your next bit. Wouldnt that then fall under this...?

3) Each account is treated separately!

No matter, which player is behind a character, the character gets punished. This means, if you lose control over your character by sharing (see rules 1, 2), you have to face the consequences.

Whatever that account does it gets punished for it? Regardless of who was playing? Granted it references rule 1 and 2.

I get your point on clear concrete boundries but thats when people would need to have a bit of faith in the team to make judgement calls as a collective on the situation. I agree you cant label all possible scenarios. But with a few as an example it could help people identify whats going to get you owned and what wont.

Its more about clearing the air a bit more on whats going to be frowned upon and what will get you a one way ticket to a very small jailcell ^^ thanks for the responses too.
