rs double logging rule a question about it?

[Guest sharkrfish]

i heard from 1 moderator on rs that u can infact

 

have 2 different accounts on rs just as long as they don't interact and are on different worlds.

 

i need someone to verify that? before i make a skiller.

[aspeeder]

You cannot have 2 open and operating rs windows open on the same computer, case closed.

[Lord Diddy]

Don't take the words out of context. They probably meant it is fine for a person to own 2 diffrent accounts, such as a main and a pure. He does not mean you can play both at the same time.

 

 

 

Jagex keeps an eye on people logging in from the same IP so its definitely a risk and is against the rules.

My last statement makes sense if you read aspeeder post, more like an add-on to what he said.

[walka92]

im pretty sure the rule is to prevent people having an unfair advantage,v and if the two accounts dont interact in anyway (hell, even being in the same cc might be risky), it *should* be fine; but dont quote me on that, because i may be wrong. ive seen people (and j mods) say both ways on the issue

[Deltaer]

 

You may create more than one 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.

 

 

 

No; case closed.

Perhaps that moderator was thinking about FunOrb, where you can play RuneScape and FunOrb at the same time.

You cannot have two accounts logged in at the same time

[SportsGuy]

For every honest pair of brothers not colluding, there would probably be three single young men claiming to have a brother logging in from the same place.

 

 

 

No, it just can't be allowed. That's the 'price' we all must pay.

You cannot have 2 open and operating rs windows open on the same computer, case closed.

 

 

 

Yes, you can. Where did you cook that up?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Having been a player mod for about a year, I've had different debates about 2 border-line rules.

 

 

 

1. The multiple logging rule.

 

2. The website advertising rule.

 

 

 

Regarding the first;

 

 

 

In the past, there was no rule litterally forbidding you to have several accounts logged in at the same time. However, you must be aware that they are not allowed to interact..

 

 

 

 

 

Note: I was a player mod 3 years ago before I asked Jagex to make me a normal player again. Opinions changed, however, the rules have changed slightly, but I think you should be fine, as Ine of my friends was fine doing it too for the past 2 years..

[khandajatt]

no 2 rs windows playin on one computer

[Sy_Accursed]

It's all down to wat Jagex detectors pick up.

 

 

 

2 accounts from same ip, but different sub-ips (eg diff devices) both being fully active, will be fine.

 

2 accounts from the same ip, but diff sub-ips alternating activity won't be fine.

 

 

 

Example:

 

Household has 2 pcs.

 

Wife is on pc 1. Husband on pc 2.

 

They both play at the same time, but they are both actively playing, eg both have clicks going thru the system and aren't macroing. Clearly denotes 2 separate people.

 

 

 

Husband makes 2 accounts, logs 1 in via pc 1 and one via pc 2.

 

Account 1 will have active clicks, while account 2 will have nothing going on despite being logged on.

 

Suddenly account 1 goes dead and account 2 has active clicks.

 

 

 

Clearly denotes 1 person trying to control 2 accounts. They only reason for doing this would be to have them interact with each other and gain an advantage.

 

 

 

Basically as long as 2 accounts from the same home don't interact at all or even go on at the same time you are fine.

 

If 2 from the same home interact a bit, but when both online clearly are both being actively played and thus culd not just be 1 person shuld be fine but you may get blackmarked.

 

2 on at the same time trying to interact, or not, but clearly being controlled alternately by 1 person will get ban hammer thrown at them.

[X3EN]

Wrong. Wrong. Wrong.

 

 

 

RuneScape client sends the computer name to the database. JaGeX/server/client is always (except when you are using unsigned client) aware if you are multilogged from the same computer.

 

 

 

However, you cannot login to the same world with two characters, but you can:

 

a) login to different worlds

 

B) login to the same world on the same IP if computer names differ.

 

This can mean only two things:

 

1) JaGeX doesn't have a final opinion about this borderline rule

 

2) If your name is John, and you named your computer "John's computer" as in the example by Microsoft, that should not prevent you to log in some RS worlds just because there are several John's in your network

[yak34]

You can log in 2 runescape/funorb accounts at the same time

 

 

 

Catch is they must be in different worlds, this is to prevent players from gaining advantages

[abbydog95]

I have sometimes done this while finding/making a gws team, but only for liek 10secs to add someone on my friends list on abby when i make a team. Ive had no problems but its risky.

[Jesus_Status]

Just wanted to point this out....my brother used to use a macro he's since been banned for it, but he could log on to the same world on two different accounts at the same time, one using the macro program and one using the normal runescape website.

To set the record straight..

 

 

 

As DeltaER accurately quoted, here is what the Rules of Runscape have to say about Multiple-Logging In:

 

 

 

"You may create more than one 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."

 

 

 

That has been the rule for as long as I've played this game, about 3 years. I've been a pmod for 2 1/2 of those years and still am one. I'd hate to see anyone get offenses and possibly have accounts banned for listening to someone that claims they used to be a pmod and is misquoting the rules and claiming there wasn't a rule to that effect when there in fact has been for years.

 

 

 

The rule is quite unambiguous. It says "you may not log in more than one account at any time". You cannot be logged into more than one RS account (owned by the same person) at the same time, regardless if it's on the same computer or different computers, on the same world or different worlds.

 

 

 

As Carl0Dublin pointed out, you may be logged into one account on Runescape and a different account on Funorb at the same time. That's fine. And as was pointed out and stated in the rules as well, you may have as many RS accounts as you wish, but under no circumstances are you allowed to be logged into more than one of your accounts on Runescape at the same time. You risk having both accounts banned by so doing.

 

 

 

Please do not listen to someone claiming to have once been a pmod, who is giving misinformation that might get your account banned. You are more than welcome to pmsg me (Aja Wyndward) in game to verify my current status.

[Deltaer]

Thank you!

 

 

 

People, it's clear as day that you are NOT allowed to have two accounts logged in at the same time. Again, read the Runescape rules they have on the site. You can only play one account at a time.

 

 

 

http://www.runescape.com/rules/rule_multiple_logging.ws

 

 

 

Effective date: 12th May 2009

 

 

 

You may create more than one 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.

 

 

 

 

1. Why do we have this rule?

 

 

 

We have this rule to maintain a fair gaming experience. We dont want our games to become games where everyone feels they need to use multiple accounts at once just to compete! Its much better to team up with your friends.

 

 

 

It looks like its fairly recent - May 12, 2009... So whoever has friends who have been doing it, maybe Jagex hasn't really been enforcing it until then.

 

 

 

I know back when I first started playing, from 2002 up until 2005 (when I quit), this was not an issue, because no browsers supported tabs.. but when I got back into the game last month, I checked it out right away, and sure enough, it's banned.
