Time to End Account Buying/Selling?

[Barkingturtle]

I don't want to experience "endgame". I want to take five or six months off, come back and trade my account for something new. Then I just dick around, seeing what it's like to be a druid or a rogue with his epic. I really appreciate that the way the rules currently stand I can do that instead of grinding a character to 30 and forgetting about P99 again for a year only to return and do the exact same thing, again. It is about my fun. Sorry if my fun hurt your fun but if it's really eating at you it's time to take five or six months off, yourself.

imo, ofc

I think to just satisfy those who want to see account selling banned, it should be. But, in EC tunnel and on the forums. That's the p99 staff's lane. It would satisfy both parties to an extent. The traders would still have other means to buy/sell/trade accounts, sure. Much like it was on live (ebay anyone?)

the results of the poll speaks for itself, kill account traders with fire!!!!!!!!

Account buying/selling...its like the EC game, only for bigger plat (in some cases).

Hard to stop, and I've sold an account (which I regret) myself - blue Swish isnt me these days [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Its one of those "day 1" things. I'd support a ban on a new server but it seems a bit late for that here.

make passwords so they can't be changed.

that way, any time you decide to share your account with people, or sell it, you can never be sure that the people you shared with or the old owner can't just take it back on a whim

that would stop this shit cold

This would suck is ANYONE ever found out your password. Bad idea in many other ways as well.

just an idea but couldn't they tie accounts to the IP address you used to create the account and only allow accounts to log in from said IP, require petitions to change your IP.... like if you move or something. not sure how well that would work and i really dont know shit about shit when it comes to these kinds of things but it seems like if they could put IP blocks up to prevent boxing they could do it for account traders

Can't do the IP thing. Some people, especially Euros have Dynamic IPs that change (almost?) daily.
