tbf "no account sharing" isn't remotely possible to enforce and borderline unethical given the time-to-drop and how /list works, but seeing whole groups of shared bot characters restored after some nerd rage-deleted them all on blue, multiple times across multiple guilds, felt a bit much

If the staff made it official policy that account sharing or multiple accounts were illegal, then most people currently doing either would stop willingly rather than try to cheat the system and potentially get in trouble for it (again, pretty much just like the situation is with boxing). Only a minority would be using VPNs or whatever other nonsense intentionally to have multiple accounts or share, especially since with it illegal there would be whistleblowers around and it wouldn't be trivial to keep it secret that your alts are all on different accounts by any stretch, especially if staff looked into it even remotely ("oh look, a hardcore raider with only 1 character on his account").
But yeah, even if the staff didnt try to enforce it at all, and even if they didn't even make it illegal, just not actively supporting it any more would go a long ways. Tracking/port/rez/coth alts for guilds would no longer be widely shared or as-easily recovered. A small subset of players would arise who actively try to infiltrate guilds and rob people who trust them with account info (reminds me of eve online style thefts). Etc.
