One way to end some of this acrimony going forward is to make sharing accounts a bannable offense. You share, you lose. If you can't raid using nothing but your own hard work, you don't deserve to raid. If you have to have shared trackers and porters, you just suck anyway.

Yeah, this sucks. I went on hiatus and let one toon be used for VP raids; it's now banned because one of the exploiting individuals played on this account for a VP raid (unbeknownst to me). So 3rd party sharing of info ftw. Doing house cleaning today, changing PWs and all that jazz. It's really shitty that a few can ruin it for so many.

I kinda did the same thing (well, quit for 2 years and was lucky enough to get my accounts back). I'm actually wondering if theres any chance I got hit by this as I only secured my account info ~3 weeks ago.

I don't think its likely because I wasn't in TMO and I'm fairly confident the leadership of Vesica Dei kept my account info relatively tight-fisted while I was gone, but if I get home from work tonight and find my account is banned I'm not going to be upset. I'll petition to make sure I don't get a perma-sentence but I fully acknowledge that if I get punished its because I gave my info out.

I think the precedence this action sets could be a huge boon for the server, especially now with account sales not being allowed. It could lead to a situation where people have to strategically park their characters, which they leveled on their own, and be available to log that character in. Not just having people go 'Oh, CT is up. I'll log in on Bobs Tank. You get on Sallies Cleric. Okay it's dead, now I'll log into my 7th alt and loot)'. Instead it will be 'Oh, CT is up. Crap, Bob isn't available and noone else owns a parked tank up there. Okay I'll meet you in WC on my warrior for a port and we'll hope nobody beats us there'

When you play a class that literally does nothing on raids but push 1 button its hard to get caught playing around with game mechanics versus someone who plays a puller, kiter, etc

When and how fast you push said button separates the men from the boys.

Also, concussion.

I can't even stop refreshing, I don't want to miss a second of this meltdown.
