How does that correlate to the difference between legal and illegal?

The fact of the matter is this. Why you would take accounts from your friends just for your own personal gain is one thing, but you've also taken all of their hard work, and basically just flushed it down the drain, as you're probably going to get banned for this now. So gj with that :) Taking the hard work of your friends, and claiming it as your own ("Duke has 300k pks") Your moral compass is a bit off. You think someone who has been banned as many times as you have would learn to just follow the rules, and enjoy the game. Is this the kind of legacy you want to leave behind when you eventually get perma-banned? You want everyone to know you as "the kid who boosts and steals accounts from other people"? If so, then please just keep doing what you're doing.
So obviously you knew it was wrong, and yet you decided to flaunt "your pks" in a streak. It really seems like you want to be in trouble, you enjoy being banned apparently. You probably could've gotten away with it, if you had just set your ego aside, and hid your stats. But you;ve been done in by your own ego. This is probably the last time I'll hear from you...so toodaloo :)

Sounds like your still mad about are series;)

My bad shame on me

No, it actually isn't.

Have you seen the effects of trade systems on other servers? Era PC had to go through two resets alone because of the trade system.

Learn some history before you jump to, "well it's kind of like a derp decision to add it, gosh."

Obviously there is a reason we aren't allowed.

Have you reset the stats and banned him yet?

Sorry if this is a dumb/lame question bboy, but why was that server reset twice because of the system?

Your logic is flawed. Trading system being common sense as part of the game has nothing to do with anything. The game developers decide what they want to implement into the game, common sense or common desire has no part of it. It is a game, designed the way they wanted it. If you don't like it, then don't play it.

We have a rule against account trading/selling. Same goes with the weapons. Why are players able to drop certain rares and not their guns? The game was designed that way, the developers wanted it that way for reasons you will not understand.

You claim there are no rules about merging your friend's account into yours. Again, your judgement is flawed. How can you prove your friend didn't sell you his account? You can't. We also can't prove he didn't. For this reason alone, we don't allow "merging" or transfers between two people. It is that simple. Anytime two different people have their accounts merged, it could be part of an account theft, trade, selling, etc.

P.S: He has been banned since last night (PST). The decision for an account reset will be determined by snk, as it is not part of my responsibility.

Ok, Street explained everything we want to know here (except my question >_>), so /close kthxbai.

Like I said once before this "rule" about merging did not exist. All that was stated was to not give your email away and if you scam you will be banned and reset. Also bboy thats why era pc still has a trade system and trade systems work in anynother game? Its funny how you consider yourself the human encyclopedia. You don't know everything and know little to nothing about this case. Also regarding Street, if you guys cant prove that I stole accounts why is that my ban reason? It all comes down to this simple question. Can you show me where you guys stated that friends cannot merge accounts?

The economy in iEra and PC Era are different. PC Era was reset twice because its economy was a complete disaster back then. The nature of the items and weapons now make the trade system possible though. However, iEra isn't as simple as PC Era. The trade system would completely wreck it like it did on PC Era years back. (Off topic)

" Can you show me where you guys stated that friends cannot merge accounts?"

^ This question has already been answered many times. By merging accounts, items and weapons are also transferred. We have stated clearly that weapon/item transfers are not allowed. By your logic, you mean to say something MUST be written down in order for it to be true. Harassing staff members is not allowed but it's not written down explicitly. So, does that give you the right to harass staff members? No.

Yes this is not a transfer, it is an account merging, two different subjects.

By merging accounts, you are already 'transferring' items and weapons from one account to another.

I see where you are coming from, but I still did not see a rule stating the merging. I didn't even realise the items would be transferred until after, mainly because I didn't need them. I already had best guns and melees. So is this "rule" that wasnt stated only in affect for me? I know plenty of people who have done the same thing even before the merging system was released. and nothing happens to them.

it's common sence...for the last damn time
