I miss understood a rule. i thought we were allowed to log in a 3 player just for buffs or a simple port. I'm sorry for the miss understanding i wasn't trying to break any rule's. I've always respected all the rule's given even back when the server was known as winter roar.

No more than two clients are allowed to be played by the same person at the same time. Different computers or the same does not matter. You are allowed to dual-client/comp, you are just not allowed to tri-client/comp. So you can play a warrior and a cleric at the same time, but you cannot play a warrior, a cleric and a paladin at the same time. You may of course play a warrior, cleric and paladin and alternate between which two you play at the same time. We do not care that you simply logged your enchanter in to buff the other two characters for a minute - you will be equally harshly punished. If you are multiple people playing from the same IP, you may play up to two characters each at the same time - what matters is how many PEOPLE are playing the characters, not how many characters are being played from the same IP. We have ways of determining this.

What is mentioned seems clear enough, however, I was wondering what the stance was on having a DC setup, logging one toon off, bringing on a buffer, buffing the other toon, then logging it, and bringing in the second toon, buffing him, then logging the buffer, and bringing in the 1st toon again. (ie. never more than 2 toons logged in at a time per box.) Basically this allows for the same thing as playing 3 toons momentarily for buffing, but without 'breaking' the rules. Though it does seem a kind of 'work around'. What's the official position on this behaviour?

PS. I guess I'm lucky my GF only plays one toon, and can log in a buffer if and when needed. I presume this is entirely okay.

Clearly it is the right type of behaviour since you only have 2 chars on at the same time. Why would this be bad?

I agree that there seems to be no problem with this. However, I bring it up because it seems to make the 'bringing on a 3rd toon for buffing is a bannable offense' a little harsh, when you can avoid breaking the rules, yet get the same 'end result', just slightly slower.

ps. liam made zodium jealous
pps. the thread was badly titled
ppps. what do you expect though, considering the level of english used by (un)said poster :p
 
If the rules were bent to go to the three toons on at the same time with just one person playing then it would eventualy be four.

Then they would tell two friends and they would tell two friends. *Shows the tv screen splitting*

You get the point.
 
I've always read it the way it was intended but now that I look at it I can see how that particular sentence could have been misunderstood.
 
"We do not care that you simply logged your enchanter in to buff the other two characters for a minute - you will be equally harshly punished."


That sentence, if not read carefully, can easily be interpreted as meaning "we do not care" as in "we do not mind." If you fail to read the second part of the sentence, that is. Its no excuse for doing it TWICE in a matter of hours, and no excuse for not paying closer attention while reading the rules, but I can see where some people might misunderstand that part. Maybe it should be reworded for clarity's sake?
 
He didn't do it twice, btw. He did it, and the jail sentence was lengthened by Liam (and consequently broadcast).

Also, considering that 'ambiguous' sentence is preceded by

No more than two clients are allowed to be played by the same person at the same time.

I don't think there's much to say about it.
 
Misinterpreting it got Jeb a 1 hour jail, basically a lenient slap on the hands. The fact that he did it AGAIN after he was very clearly showed that it was against the rules nullifies any validity of the "I misread the rules" argument.

Hell, I was impressed they only gave him an hour at first, thought tri-clienting got you a heavier suspension.



A change in wording might be called for though, specially for some of the citizens of dalaya who have some trouble with english.




Edit- Just saw rabs post after I submitted. Ignore me =)
 
How about this.

A single player may only have two characters on at a single time. There is no exception.

If there are three or more characters on a single internet connection and we validate only one person is logged in, there will be Jail time if not worse concequences?


Heh its a good start?
 
Just wonderin? lets say i got both my toon on and i ask my sister which lives with and sometimes play sod. to log on a 3 and 4 toon from a defrent computer would that be OK? ooo and are my seven day over?
 
Christ, it's not rocket science, the rules are already specific enough as it is.

Edit: Just...Use your brain...Okay? Please. :uk:

Or better yet, you should just read the second part of the sentence.
