Seems like the community should require some standard of proof in cases when people claim that others are abusing the system (have multiple accounts, sitting inappropriately, etc.). I saw a chat fail that tends to confirm that Zork is indeed being sat as described, but I would hope that in general we would ask for some evidence of such claims.
I say that as someone who has been publicly accused of violating the ToS by multi-accounting with absolutely no offer of proof. (Which is understandable because I only have one account and a rather well-known alt, and thus it would be impossible to "prove.") I don't think it's OK to question another player's integrity without offering evidence.
I'm wondering what others think -- is it OK to make allegations of this sort without offering proof, or should we as a community ask people to back up their accusations or stay silent? |

This issue is no longer about Borg sitting Zork2010. Borg is also a sat account (probably same sitter as Zork2010). They will both be gone soon...

Hmmm.... I really should find me a inactive account to sit for, so I could join the fun...  Anyone about to leave and to give me his sitting rights?

Interesting, i support the rule change as well. And as far as the upcoming wars- I think with the rule change, a large battle is inevitable. people looking to rid themselves of massive armies or other accounts altogether

Why are we debating on this? if lorre and S7B want to duke it out, have at it!
On a side note, this topic needs some happiness.

To a greater degree, I seriously agree with the Rule Change. The ability to Sit an account indefinitely, is one of the ways that some people are getting around the 2 account limit.
"Sure, I'll create 2 accounts and build them up, and, on each account, I'll Sit for 2 more people who have left the game, and that way I control SIX accounts..."
If Zork2010 truly left the game and left the account to Borg, with the intent for Borg to run the account, then turn over the bloody account. As Zork left the game, I hear, over or around a year ago, Borg still working the account as his own NOW, a year later, is a little ridiculous.

Could this be the first of many wars due to the change in system, where-by sitting will be limited?

I for one hope it is. Illy needs some action.
