Serial question.

Sorry, I must have misread. If you're not using nor ever logged into that account then you should be fine.
It sounds more like you created an account for someone else rather than actually sharing with them. :p
Just make sure you don't log into one of their game nicks. Go to the full post

Hello xwis staff. Three weeks ago i bought a new RA2 account to share some nicks and bring some good new players. but now i have a problem. Since i manage both accounts  ( mine and the one im sharing) if any of those players cheat, would i get ban on my own account that im not sharing with anyone? I mean in not playing in that new account.

It's highly probable. Sharing accounts is never recommended but if you do, I'd ensure don't share with people that may cheat ;)

Because it's tied to you. Getting others to play on XWIS is encouraged but, this is why sharing is generally not recommended.

He's not sharing his own serial number / game account. He's sharing a separate account which he doesn't use. The people playing on that separate account should be the ones banned if somebody cheats. It has always been like this.

 

If I have 10 friends come over and they each log-in with their own game accounts, are you going to ban all 10 if one of them decides to cheat? :mellow:

Ok imagine having 6 laptops at your house... Each with the game installed - each friend has their own account - but since the laptops are otherwise identical perhaps you accidently log in with one and get tied into another account.

 

 

Is there any way to fix this - to Manage the serial number and permenantly remove its relationship to various nicks or accounts - perhaps in the case of you wanting to give away your license to another person after having been done with it...

 

I imagine much of this is automated and there are probably only a handful of people who are aware of how this would work..

 

On another note -.

 

Would sure be nice if there was a new patch released to include all kinds of fixes / cheat removals / serial management / nick management / tie it into xwis properly and overall rejuvenate the game code...
