Question about IP Exemptions

tekniq · #1 02-22-2012, 11:58 AM

Does this work per single IP or any IP? I don't want to get unintentionally banned...

For Example:

I recently got my roommate to play EQ (teaching a new player from scratch how to play a 50+ account is a pain, but back to topic).

We have an IP exemption at our apartment, but will this still apply if we're both traveling on a business trip or when he comes over my hometown house for an EQ lan party?

Thanks in advance.

Who goes on business trips with their roommate to play video games?

Edit: Actually that sounds like a great episode for Workaholics.

The IP exemption is not based on your IP. IP's change all the time. Your ISP likes to cycle IPs for many reasons. The IP exemption is based on account names.

So the answer to your question is yes.

Wouldn't it be better for his EQ experience to level a character from scratch? I've grouped with some fairly poor "bought" accounts in the past, nobody likes to see the SK who doesn't know how to FD or the wizard who wants to empty his mana pool on a single mob pull.

We run our own business so we travel a lot. To cut down costs, we split a 2 bedroom. after dinner and a few drinks, who doesn't want to EQ for a few hours before bed?
