There is no legality involved.

All accounts belong to Star Sonata therefore in turn Jeff.

You only have to make the last payment on the account and then that account is yours according to the game rules, the 'previous' owner or whomever it might have been stolen from can do nothing.

Honestly, in my opinion, sharing accts is fine provided a couple of criteria are filled. I was sharing my account, then tried to quit SS and the individual refused to do anything other than look after it until I came back... :|

Newbs and property should go away. Of course we know everything is owned by the owner, thats how every MMO is. But many MMO's allow this "property" to exchange hands. As long as you keep paying, JeffL will let you do this.

However, it's the last two payments because thats what Voomy had said in my support ticket. This is to protect against theft by account scammers and people pretending to be your friends to fuck you over later.

But anyways, a guy persuaded a "friend" to take action against me for "ruining his image", in which he took over my account. Voomy requested the info for the last two payments, which I gave it to him. The newb rage quit SS after Voomy ruled against him.

The reason why it isn't the last payment is that the admins understand subs are bought and sold in this game, even though they don't like admitting to it. If they didn't enforce 2 payments, you could have a person like Illuminaughty running around again with a massive potential loss of business.

all accounts are owned by the owner of the software/game
we (players) are allowed to make an account and use it trough the client to play with it.
jeff is only lending us access to the game trough "his" accounts

only way to really own an account by law is that there is an agreement between you and the owner and saved on paper and signed by both

Voomy is gone.

I own the DCWK account because of the last payment, not the last two.

Currently as long as you make the last payment on an account, that account is figuratively yours.

If anything, the last couple of pages of this thread really indicate that the admins need to lay down some rules and modus operandi in relation to subscriptions and ownership of accounts. :|

There are rules ->

You pay the last sub, you own the account.

You chose whether to share your account details or not, but it is discouraged.
