[POLICY] Duplicate accounts

Duplicate accounts are explicitly forbidden. Please do not create more than one account per person.
Over the past week, I've been going through the userlist and getting reports from moderators and CSRs about users with more than one account. So far, I've recieved over 200 private messages about this, at a rate of about 20 a day. If you screwed something up in registration, we will help you sort it out (see link below). But do NOT create a new account.

Please direct all questions or requests to our private Account Issues support area. Link: http://www.swgemu.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=138 or email us at community@swgemu.com.

Good post Phantom it really makes things more complicated when you have so many accounts that you really don't need unless you were doing things your not supposed to :P

There is absolutely nothing good that someone could be doing with multiple accounts. If I have unrefutable proof of multiple accounts being on the Test Centre, I will not hesitate to take action. Do not think you can get away by logging off or running - thanks to Kyle CSRs now have the tools in place to check accounts and users even when people are offline.

Oh its okay since you didn't know yea you can dual log its much better than having two accounts, I'm sure one of the CSR's or Admins will delete it for you also make sure if you know anyone who does this notify them or if they do it on purpose and refuse to stop using the account when they realize the policy report them.

Thank you for that info guys. I created a second account because I couldn't create characters on my first and didn't realize it was forbidden. I will stop using that account now.

If there is an issue with one of your accounts which prevents you from using it - tell us in a support ticket at http://www.swgemu.com/support.

There are five of us here in this house that want to play... 3 of us (myself, my wife and my son) have accounts but as of now I'm the only active one. My wife logs now and then just to ride all over Tat and remember the good ol days and cant wait... the other 2 are still on WoW.

Would it be an issue to have 5 accounts in a household?

LOL we yack about a ready made guild ... the familia (sp)
