At best this is borderline sketchy behavior and at worse this is blatant cheating. There's no way this can be legal given the 'competitiveness' of the server.. 20-30 seconds is all the advantage someone needs to secure a FTE on a contested mob, especially when they could check two at once with this kind of shitty behavior.

I say the best course of action is to monitor accounts with IP exemptions and what they are being used for, like Zade was doing to TMO. They show a certain amount of sketchy behavior after X amount of time, poof goes all the IP exemptions for every account logging on at that IP. That plus no more account trading should slowly shut this shit down.

It's just sad that the GMs would have to dedicate time to eradicating this shitty behavior instead of doing better things for the server (petitions, events, helping people who actually need it instead of these chuckleheads with fake IP exemptions/bought accounts with IP exemptions, etc).

Did you not read my post? I said monitor those with IP exemptions. If someone is clearly abusing it by sitting at character select all day, poof goes their exemption on the relevant accounts.

If I was playing EQ with my brother, why the hell would I be sitting on character select 8 hours a day?

[Yinikren]

Actually, now that I think about it, how many accounts does the average p99 player actually need for themselves? I'm casual as fuck and the MOST I could see myself with is 2, so I have a character to play when my main account has a rez timer or somesuch that I don't want to lose.

Couldn't this problem be easily solved by policing the IPs that log on 4+ characters regularly, since clearly they don't own all of those characters? Might actually even out the raiding playing field as well when guilds can't rely on accounts bought before the prohibition....

I would guess something similar to this is already done.

[Yinikren]

This is true if Zade hopped into TMO guildchat to tell them to knock their shit off. Hopefully something will be done.

As my personal and humble opinion, the opportunity to play with buddies a few times a year at a house that isn't your own isn't reason enough to be able to request an IP exemption without some heavy policing to make sure shit like this isn't being done.
