Has there ever been any thought given to making EQEmu emails unchangeable?

Other servers that use EQEmu allow account trading. Not a bad thought, but probably wouldn't solve anything anyway. People would just create a fake email for an account they intend to sell, and sell the email account with it.

will just the traded account get banned? will all accounts owned by both the buyer and the seller get banned? permabans all around, or just permaban the traded account and temp bans for the other accounts? etc etc

Anyone and everyone could be banned for trading or selling accounts. Yes I'm being vague on purpose. Just don't participate and theres no problem.

This would fall under sharing account credentials, which is also subject to the same treatment.

So sharing an account with a friend or some guildmates (no trade or selling involved) is also illegal now?

Not illegal, purely because we have no way of stopping it. But the account owner assumes all responsibilities for actions taken on the account.

In the past 3 weeks I've banned maybe 10 accounts where a family member or friend used MQ2/SEQ on someones account. We don't really care who uses it, it'll be banned.

Omg, what idiots. Its widely broadcast that running those programs is totally detectable.

Yeah but you'd be amazed at how many thought they were "running the build that wasn't detectable." It's amazing what you can sell a dumb player, even after 14 years.

I have bought accounts awhile back. Can the Admins use this against me at any point? Example I get accused of rmting all the time. I obviously do not RMT GMs get spammed that I RMT alot . Could an Admins just ban me making the accusation that I buy accounts to stop the community from spamming them that I RMT?
