In the world there are four elements. Earth, Fire, Air, Water. If one were to control all four, there would be chaos, and if there is chaos, the Rise of Oblivion begins.

    Multiclienting

    I have yet to see anyone banned for this. I even doubt that can be detected.
    offensive language

    If that was applied, half the people on WC would have been banned by now b:laugh

    Multiclienting on same comp is against rules and easily detected by GM's. They can see that both clients log in from same comp. Though someone may have to report them for GM's to notice.

    Using two comps to play,is ok.

    People on WC get muted/banned for few days if GM's see them or if you report them through a ticket.

    To know the general rules,read Terms of Service Located at bottom of the page also.

    I cant know if they'r playing on different computers but i saw many of they then must be differents accounts playing on the same pc.....

    I think is unfair and they'r the greed ppl who make raise the prices.

    Only if the PC is connecting directly to the net.

    Over a router, they cannot say if it's one PC running two client, or 2 PCs running one client each.

    you dont know much about network and NAT ;)

    there are lotsa ways to see if you use one comp for 2 clients or 2 comp with one client each, just read your packets^^
    I look at all the trollers, and Pvpers.. and know they wouldnt have lasted 30sec on Camelot.

    Rules= Know your enemy (players and NPCs) gives you more chances to survive.

    you can have many accounts, but can only run one at a time on a given Comp.

    They can.

    You're forgetting that you're not simply accessing information from their servers, like a web browser. You have their software installed locally - not just elementclient, which is the game, but also pwprotector, which in all likelihood collects system information. So it's not just two clients with the same IP; it's two clients whose software is reporting identical device IDs for every single component, which makes it patently obvious to them that you're multiclienting.

    Multiboxing on the other hand, with a desktop and a laptop for example, has been stated to be legal. Not sure where they draw the line, though.

    Yes. You can play as many different accounts from the same PC as you want. Just one at a time.

    No idea what pwprotector do. Don't give too much credits to chinese developpers who cannot even fix bugs in their own games b:chuckle. I doubt PWprotector can do much useful things anyway.

    Funny thing is, we probably all know someone who multiclient. Do you know any who were banned for it?

    There was a case not so long ago, where one guy got banned for "hacking", made an alt account, and drama'd in world chat for 20 minutes or so, where how he ****, cheated and used a multiclienting, and emphasized how "it is useful to open doors". I think he even drama'd the forums, but that post got swallowed really fast my the mods. Oh and it happened on HT btw <.<

    Though another question: how is virtualization of multiple workstations and clients regarded here? Since it's just 1 hardware, but several OS'es running, with their own IDs and (internal) IPs.....

    simple point, if you cant afford a second comp, dont bother

    >_> Charging from paypal won't get you banned. It was probably a bug, and that person will be unbanned soon enough.
