So many of you have probably noticed what happened with the clan Noise.
To put it briefly, the owners trusted a user enough to give them access to the main clan account.
They done this so the user could do the following:
- Update the Clan Thread
- Kick / Ignore / Punish clan rule breakers on the main account.
However, the said user ended up griefing the clan using the account information given.
Griefing for those of you who don't know can be described as such:
Griefing is the act of irritating and angering people in video games through the use of destruction, construction, or social engineering.
In this case it would be the destruction of the clans thread and clans bank account, which contained many items.
We currently have no rules when it comes to cases of griefing in such a manner.
We do have rules which state no account sharing, and discourage those from sharing information for said reason.
However, when it comes to clan management at the moment there aren't much choices in the matter.
So I want to suggest some additions to the current rules:
Account Sharing
- If you lose any items due to you sharing your account information, the staff of Emps-World are not eligible to return them to you, as you have voluntarily given out your information despite the risks.
- Griefing of threads and accounts (by deliberately breaking rules on shared account) will result in punishment of the main account responsible.
This means that if someone shares their information, they adknowledge that if anything happens to their items that staff are not responsible, however if Griefing happens, the culprit will be given an infraction.
Honestly though, this would be a temporary measure, what really needs to happen is for clans to have more functionality.
Having clan ranks in game which dictate what the users can do, such as ban users from clan, mute from clan, etc...
Once these functions get added, there will be much less need to share accounts. Of course there would still be a need for thread editing however the owners could protect clan items via PIN or having a separate account for the bank.
Having the rules of griefing will discourage users from purposely destroying / giving away clan items and removing the threads.
In the end: Account sharing is against the rules and discouraged, however we should discourage them futher by adding in functionality to make it less necessary for account sharing in the first place, and also discourage users from griefing inside of shared accounts.
