JonB Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 Just a very quick question and one I'm sure has been asked before (sorry). What is the guidance with logging in to an account from a work/communal PC? The PC in question is my 'own' work PC and only I use it but I don't want to end up forfeiting my account due to someone else from the same organisation (2000+ people) playing the game. Any guidance would be appreciated. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ejayrazz Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 (edited) Don't log in from work. Simple as that mate. You do not want to have shared IP addresses, moderators hear many different stories concerning why individuals are sharing IP addresses, it is just simply not worth it. Also, if you have buddies who eventually join the game, you will not be able to aid/help them, you could possibly be flagged for violation of terms. The computer might be yours, but the fact the network is shared by so many people could be a risk to you. I would suggest downloading IRC if you are board at work you can interact with CNer's there. Haha. Cheers. Edited January 7, 2008 by Ejayrazz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can do most of the stuff from my phone anyway - well, except for buying anything as the buttons don't seem to work in the phone's browser IRC is a bit of a non-starter unfortunately as they seemed to have blocked the required port(s)!

Try your alliance's forums, alliances love active members. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sctrainer Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 I wouldnt log in using your phone... a couple members of my alliance got flagged for cheating because they both used their cell phone to log in at times. They had the same provider and so were on the same network, along with a few million of their closest friends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
