my grandfather passed at 3am this morning, and now im driving up to newyork in about 7 hours, where ill have no pc for a week-2 weeks, and i cant vacation mode because i ascended and got a ppt yesterday =/

i understand why the rule is in place, but is there anything that can be done about special circumstances like this? if not i guess i understand and will just have to get farmed =/

Truely sorry for your loss. Keep in mind most every library or many internet cafes will get you enough access to vacate if you can find one.

Surely a friend could sign in and put you on vacation mode?

Sorry for your loss.

normally that is prohibited, but in this case I find that admin should at least allow that.

Sorry for your loss, my condoleances

A friend who does not own his own account, surely there's no infringement of a rule there? Do I see anything against two people playing one acccount? No. :P

How can they log on at the same time?

It wouldn't really make it fast, but if they were on opposite sides of the world, it might play around the clock.

I think he was taking the urine slightly. My point however, remains valid.

We are on topic. Please elaborate your post, it is difficult to know if you are implying that I should read the rules, or wether you have read them, 'red' them, if that's easier to understand. Who cares if it can be seen as cheating, as long as it is not. It's an exceptional circumstance.

What is wrong with two people sharing one account? Some people like to do things together ;)

Rule 1,3 and 4 in game rules:

1) Only one account per person
3) No sharing or giving out your account details to others.
4) No logging into other people's accounts.


answers the question.

I also think in this particular case admin should give an exception...
but it has to be stated as an exception.

Hasn't admin granted this kind of request in the past? I'd search, but i'm lazy.
