nman96 Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 I just wanted to know your take on second accounts. I think they are fine, i am starting a range str pure right now. 1 or 2 is okay but mroe than that is not. Edit:No go on the 4 per ip rule Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
endo Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 4 accounts per ip is a little harsh for those sharing the same computer in a same house. Any amount of accounts is allowed just drop trading is :shame: :shame: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nman96 Posted April 22, 2007 Author Share Posted April 22, 2007 that make sense to me, i wish that once you drop things that if you log out they dissapear, that would make since right. They do that with the dwarf cannon. This would stop drop trading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scars Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 There are people who have dynamic IP's, so there goes your rule.. It's just fine the way it is now... Thanks to WithTheQuickness for the sig! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brave Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 IMO I think Jagex should allow a number of characters per account (say 4) which all share the same bank account This would immeduately get rid of a couple of the rules (6 and 8), which are mostly unenforceable anyway.

Randox Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 IMO I think Jagex should allow a number of characters per account (say 4) which all share the same bank account This would immeduately get rid of a couple of the rules (6 and 8), which are mostly unenforceable anyway. And how on earth would you support a main, and all your oures on one bank. There would be no way to keep all the armour, random event clothes (that you eventualy accumulate), supplies for training various skills (a full set of runes, your ores and bars, hammer, chisel, etc). I can tell you it is quite difficult at the best of times(since my main does everything f2p and is always prepared for all types of combat, pluss the hordes of random event clothes.

nman96 Posted April 22, 2007 Author Share Posted April 22, 2007 yes, the whole one bank account come on, if you were f2p then you are pretty much screwed one the account that i don't know, its hard to keep 1 account of a not full bank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artificial_Doom_Flavor Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 I say any number of accounts is fine provided you don't attempt to move items between them. I did that between two accounts once and then stopped using them because I felt like I'd cheated :P Well, ok, so I still use one of them, but only to scout for my rune-mining main. That's reasonable, right? Still enjoying RuneScape? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magician_xy Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 I think you can have as many as you want, as long as you don't trade between them. BTW, what is drop trading, exactly?

its_stevoh Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 I like having more than one acount, I have a lvl 82 (unclegarrow) and a lvl 91 (The_Ultama77 (recently hacked by my former clan leader)). Some people say it is a waste of time to train up new acounts, but somtimes it keeps my from quitting Runescape, for example, if I am pking and lose a whip or somthing, I will go train my lvl 80 to cool off.

HatshepsutLecter Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 I have two myself. There is my main that isn't really a main anymore since she lost her membership and my skill pure that I have been spending most of my time on when I have access to a computer, which is getting pretty rare. I personally don't see the point of having a ton of different accounts. I think that instead of spending your time to make 7 different characters that are so-so you could be making one account that is absolutely amazing. Heck, I would still have only one account if my main hadn't lost her membership.

SwreeTak Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Ithink it's okey with alot of accounts, but I don't see any meaning in having 5+ accounts... Add me if you so wish: SwreeTak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wishkahbanks Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 I think its good having more than one account i personally have a level 3 skiller which i play on very occasionally but sometimes its just nice to be a low level again and get in some quick level ups.

T. Skill Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 When I need a break from skilling on my main I normally train my level 3 skiller because it's really fun for me for some reason.

Dragon_lord Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 I only have 2 accounts: My main and my pure. I spend most of my time on my main, but sometimes I get bored and switch to my pure. Like some people have said before me, it stopped me from quitting. Pretty much what Dragon said.Thread terminated.I guess that means I'm the thread Terminator?

n8myton Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 I think you can have as many as you want, as long as you don't trade between them. BTW, what is drop trading, exactly? Drop trading is dropping items in a remote place on one account, then quickly logging off that account and on to another in the same place to pick up the items again. Just one of several ways you can transfer items between accounts. Anyways, I have one main and a couple nubby accounts that I rarely use for much. taking a break Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Too Far Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 i know some guy with 5 mainish acounts and 2 pures and 1 skiller, crazy dude. al of them are low leveled. (except his first main wich is stil low but not ultra low) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scn64 Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 What is the reasoning behind the rule against drop trading? I haven't thought about it much but I can't really come up with a reason why it would be bad for the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I didn't say using the current bank did I? Obviously the bank size would have to change to support multiple characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nman96 Posted April 22, 2007 Author Share Posted April 22, 2007 About the drop trading, it is just to protect the item and to prevent spamming. Player 1: I can't wait to transfer this 1 mil to my other account. Player 2: (pm to friend) This noob just announced he is drop trading, idiot [Player 2 follows then steals the 1 mil then...] Player 1: Come on if you don't give it back i'll report you Player 2: You do that and you'll get banned idiot its against the rules Player 1: COME ON!!! COME ON!!!COME ON!!!COME ON!!!COME ON!!!COME ON!!! I worked forever for that. This is why drop trading is against the rules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n8myton Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 The Rule: Rule 8 - Multiple Logging-In You may create more than one RuneScape account, but if you do, you may not log in more than one account at any time, and they must not interact with each other in any way. This includes 'drop trading' or any other method of item transfer. What it says about it: Why do we have this rule? We have this rule to maintain a fair gaming experience. We donÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t want RuneScape to become a game where everyone feels they need to use multiple accounts at once just to compete! ItÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s much better to team up with your friends. Essentially, they want each account to be individual and not dependent on any other account. Having a main shouldn't make it any easier to have a pure (by transfering supplies) otherwise it wouldn't be "fair."
