It has been brought to my attention that one of the beta testers has been "sharing" his account with someone else, friend/family member i would assume. Now it states in the Beta Game rules that is not allowed. Normally i would not say anything, but the person "sharing" the account decided to flame me mid match. Here is the quote in the game rules followed by in game chat.

1.01. In order to register in World of Tanks Generals, players must be thirteen (13) years of age or older, and are allowed only one account registered per server. All players are solely responsible for their behavior in both public and battle chat. Players are responsible for protecting their accounts from access by others, and are strongly encouraged to select a hard-to-guess password and not re-use that password on any other sites where it may be read by the owners or administrators of that site. It is highly discouraged for users to share accounts with others. In the case of an account that has been lost or hacked, please inform technical support immediately through their website,World of Tanks Support.

that wasnt me
[02:44]
same account
[02:44]
different player

We all covet the chance to test new games and most of us follow the rules of game and chat as such. While others seem to have a "swinging-door" policy with sharing that right to test.

If any more information is needed, or questions to be asked, don't hesitate to contact me privately.

Thank you.

Edit: figured i wouldnt flame them publicly and be guilty of the reason I am filing the complaint in the first place. hehe. If an admin wants to take this further, message me.

We're not here to play the game early, we're here to help finalize the product and iron out bugs. Part of that is adhering to the Non-Disclosure Agreement we're bound by. If you want to share your account, wait until release, otherwise, you're violating the agreement you're bound by.

"Highly Discouraged" does not mean banned. It means they think it is a bad idea. There are many reasons for this including that you are responsible for everything that happens with your account whether it was you or not.

"Flaming" you may have been against the game rules depending on the details and may have deserved some kind of punishment or even a ban. If the account was punished for actions taken by someone it was shared with then that is simply the fault and responsibility of the account holder.

If you have any ability to comprehend what was written in my message. You would see that it was just as much for the flaming as it was for the account sharing. Go troll somewhere else. And furthermore, i wouldnt have to "spot that and tell the truth on forums." because you already admitted to it.
