Hey guys, can people sell their accounts to other players? Will it get you banned?

Engy_Bengy

It's against the rules, yes.

lnfinite

Yes it gets you banned. Your account is Z8Games property according to the rules.

stoolY

You can't sell something that belongs to Z8..

It's like the law in real life...

"It's only illegal if you get caught"

I don't see how z8 would know if you sold your account as long as there is no evidence on the internet.

Edit: Btw, I'm not saying break the rules, and I'm not doubting the power of z8 (i hope)

Edit2: Whoo, 255 posts, thats my house number xD

Old forums used to track your ip. I'm not sure about these ones...

You'd be surprised how many they find without "internet" evidence.

Hehe, I can imagine z8 workers dressed in black with sunglasses stalking someone who could be selling their account. ^^

And yes, i do hope z8 find out about people breaking the rules because they do their best to provide services (that are essentially free), so it would just be wrong to cheat them.

I personally don't see how selling an account is bannable, yet destroying the game by having 150+ ping isn't.

Banning people according to where they live...talk about disscrimination. Lol, but I know what you mean. A UK server would solve that problem.

Why is drinking beer in public illegal, but being drunk out of your mind at home allowed?

"Disscrimination"
Funny guy.

Also, high pingers make people complain about lag, and they also complain about lag themselves. I don't see why it's that hard to find a game in your own country. Pick up cs1.6 for 9.99 and play on a dedi-server.

Lol, its was a typo, but I'll leave it there for the double meaning ^^

Because nobody cares if you start urinating, vomitting and trashing your own house

I thought it was witty at least ;D

Also, to delco: It's all about image and the way society functions. At home you are impacting your family, not the community. In public, you are a potential hazard to others merely wishing to enjoy life outside their home.

The same can be applied to our "metaphor" here.
By selling the account anonymously no one is aware. It is simply another player, just playing the game.
Someone with 150+ ping however, is yet another nuisance to the game, causing lag, grief, and bad blood.
