If an account is in dispute it will always revert back to the original owner of the account and not who upgraded it. Who upgrades the account has no effect on who owns the account, whoever made the account is whom it belongs too. As you know or should know it is illegal to "give away" or transfer an account, it always has been. Regardless of what may or may not have been done in the past by past Admins, this is the rule and how it will be done. Unixmad only discourages upgrading by someone else who does not own the account because of the risk factor involved. Just because you have the password at the time of upgrade for that purpose does not constitute "account sharing". But I also comment on how that should be handled in a previous post. Proof of ownership is also done by the info that comes off the account confirmation you get from Graal when the account is made. So I suggest you keep this email in a safe place and always print it out ,along with keeping a file copy of it also. (text or email format)

I personally have upgraded a few accounts , Unixmad knows about this but what I do is REQUIRE after the upgrade is done to CHANGE your password so I don't have it. If you have someone upgrade your account make sure you always change the password imediately after comfimation of the upgrade. I just don't make it a habit of ugrading anyones account but my own and my Family. If you do make sure you know and trust this person , never do this with someone you barely know. Always change the password afterward , never think it will be ok this time if I don't change the password , because 99% of the time it won't.
