Hmm.... sharing an account, I can personally see no problem with it as long as the players are not cheating/ using exploits etc you just have to trust the person you are letting use your character. For instance if you are away on vacation for several weeks,there are things that you can only do or make I cant really see a problem with someone using your character to do so.
A few years ago when i played SWG I was a guild leader, I had a month vacation so I let my Officer have access to my account just in case my character was needed etc (mainly for crafting purposes). When I came back, I found I no longer had a guild, no items, houses or mines etc left....
So if you take the risk, you take the consequences.. just a shame you lose 1000's of hours playing because of someone with a mean streak though. Well I hope you enjoy what ever game you go on to play and maybe you learnt an expensive lesson in process ):
I am personally pleased Nevrax is acting tough, which in long run should make game better for everyone.
