    You can as far as I know, run two accounts at the same time (on the same comp), provided they are yours. Only two. Three at once (even if one is a catshop) won't do.
    Maintenance time. Please choose a line:
    - When is it over? OMG I need my fix!! *super spazzing*
    - Fix the damn bugs, dammit! I'm so angry! I'll quit!!
    - New codes out there? I like free stuff~ *wink*
    - When will we get new content? QQ
    - Will we get sales? I got a ton of gold to spend.
    - I'm bored, I'll create a useless thread to annoy Opkorock.
    - *Incessant poking on Sweetiebot* Fun~

    As per the rules you may have only two accounts open at once you may not level both accounts at once if you are leveling the one the other must be doing no more then catshoping.

    You may run one account per computer while you are capable of running more then one client on a computer if you are caught doing so you will be tapped with the ban hammer. Though i think the first offense as usual is a warning anything after that it is banned.

    If you have a spouse or a family member that is playing with you, you must submit a ticket and give proof of your computers and your family members that way they won't ban many accounts coming from your IP :P

    You must not interact with another account you are leveling up in form of trading items or money which means if you want to be able to trade your cat shop for cash keep it a low level.

    These are the rules as per Frankie and such.

    I am sure it was something like that indeed.

    Here you go
    You may only have 2 accounts per person, regardless of how many computers you own.

    There isn't a viable reason to create an excessive number of accounts, so any suspicious activity from now on will be fully dealt with. We aren't going to punish you for having existing accounts prior to this rule, but you can only be online on two at once at the most.

    *Note: Excessive account creation has been and will continued to be pursued. Provided you did not abuse this before, you should have nothing to worry about.


    You may only play on two characters at the same time. They can both level up OR one can level up while the other is a vendor alt OR both can be vendor alts.


    If you want to keep one leveling account and one vendor alt account, that's fine. You cannot, however, actively level two characters while having a third account to act as a shop alt. We will be actively enforcing this.

    This new policy is in effect starting now, however, we will continue to refine and improve upon this, so this policy is subject to change. Read on for examples that may specifically deal with your situation.

    *Example: If you're a family of 3 playing PWI, then you can have 2 accounts for each member of your family. You WILL have to prove this though if we notice any suspicious activity from your household.

    *Example: You can actively have two LV 65 Barbs grinding on HT Server on the same computer, but no vendor alts online.

    *Example: You (as an individual human being) cannot have 3 accounts active, it doesn't matter if you own 3 or 30 computers.

    *Example: You cannot have two characters leveling at once if you also have a shop alt logged in.


    Two characters maximum online at once for any situation.

    thats inaccurate, it specifically states you can level both and be active on both. but you cant have three

    No problem.

    Had to re-read it myself carefully to confirm I was indeed in the rules.

    Me and my in-game wife (not living together, in fact, different country) usually "duo" our bh69/79.

    She logs her veno and her cleric, I log my barb to tank and my seeker to DD.

    Not that we are anti-social, but we know how to work as a team (for now over 14 months) and at the time we do it, it's rare people ask for a spot, so we save ourselves time like that, lol
