Default Ban account sharing?

What if account sharing was prohibited, do you believe it would make for a better game?

I've heard it wasn't allowed on live but don't have any source to confirm, does anyone know what the actual situation was like?

The consequences would be many. For example,

- Guilds could no longer park armies of cleric bots. Instead players would have to level clerics of their own or raid park their mains. No more wizard bots either.

- High level enchanters would need to be more careful farming. No more parking a cleric alt up in hate and ask a buddy to res you if/when things go south.

- If we ever see legacy camps again people wouldn't be able to go 4 days straight, curbing the number of hours camped.

However, it would also be difficult to enforce outside of obvious cases, i.e. guild bots. Not that every case needs to be enforced, simply there being a rule against it would restrict much of the practice. Not everyone is willing to cheat and if they did it sometimes would be apparent to everyone in the zone.
