Would a loan-my-necro initiative be a good idea?

Since you can no longer sell accounts, I was thinking of making a thread whereby people request a block of time to use my 59 necro to camp things in the world they want, say a new monk joins the server and wants an fbss, he can go camp it with the necro. Or a new warrior feels undervalued due to lack of gear, he could improve his lot in life with the necro. I'd always have the master account info, so the account password could be shared without risk of losing the account entirely.

Thoughts? Criticisms?

Possible ramifications?

Sounds like a nightmare for staff and everyone who would abuse it.

Someone will delete your items and character and you won't get them back since you freely handed out the password.

This seems to be the consensus, was thinking I could just strip the character or leave the gear there and if it gets swiped it get's swiped, but didn't consider someone would actually delete the entire character out of spite or something.

A shame

Safs, Cos, these are generous offers. Rest assured I'd never perpetrate such ignoble acts against your characters. But then I would not play them either ^^ treat your passwords like the ring of power: keep it safe, keep it secret ^^

Some years ago a player once made his Hole key mule publicly available. The character was deleted within hours.

As long as you wouldnt cry if worst case scenario happened, Id say go for it heh. Lets see what happens!

Seems to me that even if the staff had NO issues with it, that sooner rather than later an arsehole would do something shady with it. =/

there would be no repercussions for someone deleting your necro. Do not do this.
