This thread should be stickied throughout all of LOMCN as a reminder that, and I'm paraphrasing a golden oldy here from our Euro days,

"Account sharing leads to trouble in 99% of all cases."

You're misunderstood here. We've dealt with countless account sharing problems before, and still do. If a user reports they've been hacked, we have an obligation to investigate. Naturally, you wouldn't know what goes on behind the scenes, but to assume we take the same role as Euro's GM's and "do nothing" is not only false but worrying. I mean jesus christ, to get a dev reply on Euro the stars had to align, your name had to be Jesus and you had to be born under a solar eclipse. What an awful precedent to expect.

SpanishPowa did NOT share his account with you.

then how did i get access to it?

i got pm'd the details.

Are you saying i could go round pming ppl my details, and then IF they log on it, and i say SOMEONE says they got hacked, everyone gets banned?

You believe that if someone gives you a ID/Password to an account, you have a right to logon and strip the account without any value.

Real Life scenario:
You hear or see the password to a vault which has money in it, you now believe that you have the right to just use that password and take the money?

And thats probably 99% of the reason i got banned, not because of the incidents, but more because i play the ****y role on this game

I really wish that was the case however its not. Jamie is just as big of a bell end as you when playing so not really going to be his style..

Why are you comparing real life and mir?

On mir, its kinda known that if you hand your password out to people, it tends to end in disaster and you end up being robbed.

In real life, i dont think many ppl would be giving out their bank pin willy nilly, and even then if they get robbed then more fool them im afraid, im also fairly certain all you'd be given is a crime number from the police, not a full on investigation and arrest (a ban on mir)

comparing the two things really doesnt work, anyone can type a sentence and make it sound fancy.

Only saving grace from this is that the world cup starts next week, so i wouldnt have been playing AS much.

Still a shitty thing to do banning all my chars, irrespective of how you try to act all whiteknighty like your doing it because its in your nature! haha :)

Are you gonna rewind all the money etc from the comms merchant sales from said items? Afterall that would be fair no? Or are you only half fair in the fact you'll just blanket ban?

The original owners, of both characters, need to tell us they're okay with you being on the account still. Then you can be unbanned.

Which I assume is going to be a problem, because you've just inevitably destroyed that bridge by not talking to them and removing all their gear and betraying their trust.

Just because someone says you're okay to log onto an account, doesn't mean you own the account.

Nah you just needed them on MSN Messenger, or to call the office.

Better one, just because someone leaves the door unlocked doesn't mean you can burgle them.

KoD - :

Did you take stuff off the accounts that had been on there before you was given the details or did you only take off what you had earned through the characters on the accounts in question? If it was the former then I'm going to hazard a guess you assumed you was given full rights/access to the accounts in question?

When i started playing kod, it was level 71 in a level 38 weapon with a brown horse... when i stopped it was level 78 with a black horse, emblem, 2 elite sin weps nice luck and a nice edge wep, real kod played Rotilia

I guess taking spanishpowas stuff was a bit harsh, but such is life . I was given access by who i thought was the original owner (as far as im aware , 2 spaniards shared spanishpowa, pablo and miguel?), 9 times out of 10, nothing happens from account sharing problems, im not ashamed to say it, but ive robbed things on several occasions and if given the opportunity i will do it again - i am not to be trusted with other peoples accounts.
