If forum account sharing is illegal, is game account sharing illegal also? I mean are we suppose to say something to people?

Who knows ::shrug:: they can't really PROVE the account sharing on game as much so they barely enforce that. These people need to be smacked, it's no longer theirs when you frickin buy a product, I doubt it would hold up in court but meh ::shrug::

you can't really PROVE people sharing an account on the forums either if the second person doesn't put their name.

go for it. Ban them, I mean. It's obvious that they are not PAYING for the accounts, and avoiding the pay rule by sharing. That's not something unixmad wants.

It's not something he will have an easy time controlling, either.

What's the big deal if two friends pool thier money and get an account and share it? If they didn't than niether of them could afford one and that's 30$ less for unix

Maybe unixmad should make another account type, a shared account, where 2 or more people can use it on one server but it should cost zehr grosse mark lol

lol, meaning it was a bad idea to post this question, though I guess it is good to get peoples views on it, that's just not the purpose of the thread

Instead of posting it'd of been nice to contact a proper administrator to make such a decision because it's not accurate for the community to answer, even tho it may be correct, it still is not the way it should be approached...

My opinion and decision on that will remain off here until I speak with Unixmad...Until then, account sharing on game has no laws against it and people shouldn't been banned because you cannot ban paying customers for lending accounts....All that does is lessen the amount of graal players...

As I have stated, it'd be best if this was best kept off the forums and properly sent to a graal administrator..such as myself or Ibonic
