rights of individual Vs big CO
I'm in two minds over this.
I play eq a lot
Now i believe that a person should have the right to do as they wish within their REAL life. Even if that includes selling an account with an online game, if people want to buy a premade chr why not.
But from experianced there is nothing more annoying than an Ebaby. ( term for 60th lvl newbies) They spoil the experiance of playing because they have never learned the basic social skills necessary, the basic etiquette of the game and ask just plain DUMB questions and expect everything to come to them at a whatever they think is right. they ruin peoples playing experiances causing death, stealing kills, experiance, cash and items. Because they either lack the social skills or are just plain selfish. this is a detriment to the other players enjoyment especially those who have spent years developing their chrs the hard way. To protect those players, Verant, mythic etc have as part of their terms and conditions that the accounts are not sold.
Now if Ebabys had not been a pain in the arse this would not proberly have happend, but they are and it has.
I applaud the people in attempting to fight the restrictions on public rights and the unequal legal power of the institution Vs the individual but how else will you "police" the ebabys.
