troll, no for special services u should pay, why u trying to change the subject? i suggest the game take a new direction than the current situation, by charging vacation it would clear up many misuses currently happening such as multiple babysitting that is happening

If you want to pay for 'special services' head down to the red light district....

lol, agree special services doesnt sound right, but it does make u wonder how many of these so called babysit accounts are now being played by other players, making prestige pay for vacation would finish all the babysit abuses and allow players to come back to their accounts..if they really are coming back...remember prestige is given each log in and u can earn prestige by recuiting new players to the game

That would not work, even if you make the prestige 50. It is fine the way it is now, and when the developers go back to working on this, it will all be fixed. The whole idea they had before would work with a few tweaks. You start charging prestige and doing all that mess, you will only hurt the players that need it. Not the players that abuse it. Right now its good enough.

what they need to do is make a vacation option and have prestige pay for it, everything should be prestige paying in this game, that way only people willing to invest money into the game should gain advantage

No, No; No, No, No. G No! No, No, No, No. This is a bad idea and we shouldn't do it. The fact that you can't buy a "I win" button is what makes this a great game and in my opinion why it has such a strong community of players. furthermore this comment shows a lack of understanding in the game designers intentions. (this time i won't post the link its worth taking the time to find it yourself). If we the community wanted games were we could pay to win; we would be playing Magic (tm) or some other wizards of the coast (tm) game.
on a more relevant note...

the answer is yes, or at least most likely yes. i can get access to the exodus page of an account i sit for but i haven't actual tried to relocate their city. the only difference i can tell from sitting and logging in to another account is that sitter's can't claim the free prestige every 24 hrs. sitters even reset the "Status" log in the alliance forum (i know cause i just checked it)

I'm sorry for asking but I am curious as to how this all works. Can a sitter appoint someone else as a sitter for the account they are sitting? What happens if you are a sitter for an account that is a sitter for another account? Can being a sitter cascade like that?

I don't know how the developers can prevent sitters from running accounts of players who have left the game without also punishing players in a situation like the above.

A limit of four months would work for your example. Another player mentioned alliance management, but I think the permission system already covers that, management account sitting is not required.

A sitter cannot appoint someone else as a sitter. The only thing you see on the account and preference tab is "Return To Your Account" button. So that stops anything that you might be thinking. They cannot change or access the Account Sitters, Character/Account Name, Account Password, Account Email, or Abandon Account.
