From my point of view, much of the account sharing, raiding monopoly problem, and economy inflation all stem from a primary thing:

Accounts here are free and unlimited.

Back in Classic, truly there were people with multiple accounts, but not anywhere near like it is on P99 where anyone can have as many as they like.

Free, multiple accounts =
More sharing. It's a minor inconvenience if someone violates trust on an 11th account that is seldom used. In Classic, that account (for which you were paying $15/mo) represented your online identity and reputation, huge investment of time, and was cherished. Clearly, removing the cost devalues it considerably.

Free, multiple accounts =
Incentive to level many characters and equip them (hence hoarding all raid bosses for 4th alts) in order to share for tracking, rezzing, porting, and camping high value mobs (epic MQs) etc. This further increases the ability to hoard the raid scene.

A monopolized raid scene results in inflation.

got to say it sounds like a perfect idea but then again people will always have alts since in classic & in all mmo's in general you do get more then one slot for characters, so we have eight slots, so only limiting one account is kinda a moot point for helping control this issue. also with a sms their is services like google voice etc. so that whole thing doesn't seem to stop anything. just my thoughts on this ideal you got there
