Multie Computer Access

I know this may come to you as a security interaction breach but its not. If you pay one account and you share it with your familie, you need to wait until some one else can is away from it :| (this is for ppl that can't pay and share it with other ppl)

If your on one computer and your brother is on a other computer can it not be helpfull to hold the account active for both players....and not just for one player?

Its just a idea......

That's a rather bad idea.
Someone could post their username and password online and everyone in the world could use it.

if you or your brother likes this enough, buy a second account.

i dont know how easy it is for a dev or guide to move an existing character to another account, but it doesnt hurt to ask.

Asking for seconds? tsk tsk tsk.

You can't let you brother play on the same account, iirc that is illegal. I think you can let one of your children play.

illegal? F. that, why not? we can't play at the same time. So it doesn't matter.

avirulence is correct, the EULA states that one may not share her or his account with anyone except children (also adopted) or wards. However, if the account is in the name of either parent, it should be fine.

Still, it would be nice if the access were extended to partners.

there was a thread way back when VO went pay to play about a family discount option that never went anywhere...

someone with more incentive could dig it up and bump it, maybe draw incarnates attention back to the topic. (as if he didnt have enough on his mind allready)

The family plan thing has been on my mind lately anyway.

The family plan ....sounds like music to my ears :P :D

I duno, how would that work? and how would that stop 1 player from running 5 simultaneuous accounts (admittedly rather useless right now) but even then mining with 5 moths is more efficient... though piloting them back might be a bit tricky (doable). And especially in the future when economy comes in.

the same thing that stops people from owning and paying for 2 or more accounts now Zed.. nothing at all..

the family plan idea isn't multiple access for one account, its just a discount on multiple accounts.
