Account Sharing Bans - InfoBot "Services"

I am not wrong. First off, the Top Allies are not solely responsible for the income of the game. Considering the yearly gross, that does not come from such a small demographic.
Secondly, the idea that people are untouchable because of where they are in the game is hilarious to me. There was a clear message sent from the most recent waves of bans. Undoubtedly there are still some who are in denial about this. People have been banned for Account Sharing alone. They are becoming more diligent in tracking them down. It's funny how some can be indignant about it because when the time comes they take action on them, they'll be the first to come and post about it. The cockier people are about it, the more red flags go up. No one is above the rules, regardless of their Ally or spending habits. The more the issue comes up, the more diligent they will be.
I am not wrong. People have been convincing themselves that it won't be dealt with. Best of luck to them.
Again, you are wrong. Also, your argument is a red herring (look it up). I never stated that top alliances are solely responsible for the income of the game, that is a childish distraction from what I did say. I said if Kabam was banning account sharing 90% of the top alliances would have been banned. They have not. Ergo, Kabam is not banning soley for account sharing. Your other plausible option, which I gave you, is that Kabam is only banning account sharers who don't considerably contribute to the bottom line.
Here are the facts: 90%+ of top alliances account share. Not even 1% of those were banned. Those who were banned, for the most part, have admitted to using mods or accounts who were using mods even if they were unaware at the time. Logic dictates only one of the two responses I presented to you. 1) Kabam is not banning account sharers, or 2) Kabam is only banning nonspenders or minimal spenders who account share. You choose. However, since you refuse to actually acknowledge the issues I put in front of you and continue to just spout nonsense I will bid you farewell.
And again, roasted. *wink
Anyway, like I've said before in a video when the whole Kabam ban hammer dropped upon our fellow brethren's accounts. If you need to pay someone to play a game for you, you probably shouldn't be playing the game. Spend your time doing something you enjoy doing yourself. And if by any chance you just happen to have too much money lying around (as one does), donate it or something. Kabam doesn't need it, they already know how to milk money. So yeah, just go do something you enjoy.
No one was roasted. All you're doing is arguing with assumed and inaccurate facts that are used to justify wrong behavior. It's bannable. They have taken action against it. If you believe it's overlooked because allegedly those Allies are engaging in it, all you're doing is highlighting the need for further diligence. If anyone chooses to engage in that behavior thinking they won't take action, they will be in for a shocking surprise when they do. I believe that's the definition of ignorance.
“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it."
Quite true actually. I mean, what if someone hands over their phone to a friend to do a LoL run? Kabam couldn't prove it. I can see it now,
Update 25.0: Now with a FaceCam Reader to ELIMINATE the possibility of the dastardly Account Sharing!!!

Update 27.0: Nothing but a ton of offers for ISO-8 and T1cc because of possible lawsuits from Updates 25.0 - 26.0...
EDIT: Whoever marked Smarter_Than_Mike's post as abuse, come on. Don't be so sensitive, the guy is simply spreading his view on the matter. Not abuse, LET THE MAN SPEAK!
People are getting banned for Account Sharing. Using InfoBot is not agaisnt the rules. Using "Services" through InfoBot, where someone hires another person to advance their Account is. It breaks a number of rules. One of them is Account Sharing.
Cute quote. Here's mine, "Just because you don't believe something doesn't mean you aren't wrong."
I don't understand why people who aren't at a top tier stage of the game are making truth claims about what is and isn't happening at the top tiers. If you don't know then you should stop commenting like you do. What you believe or don't believe is irrelevant. I am telling you guys the truth and you want to debate with me like I have some kind of agenda or reason to lie. These forums are unbelievable.
The fact that the posts claimed they only shared an account is neither here nor there. Most people aren't going to say that they used a mod or used someone who used a mode. Having said that, I have no idea whether accounts have been banned merely for account sharing. Best bet is don't share your account.
The sheer number of people saying the same thing with the last wave of bans is an indication that they're telling the truth. That many people didn't post the same lie in the same few days. It's a fact. People refuse to accept it. If they want to continue believing that and engaging in it, it's their Account that is at risk. Foolish, if you ask me.
By that logic then Kabam is banning people for no reason? Because many of those people claimed to not account share or mod. According to you "the sheer number of people saying the same thing with the last wave of bans is an indication that they're telling the truth." Or do you you only cite that type of obviously faulty logic when you are defending Kabam? I gave you the truth already. You simply refuse to believe it.
Kabam saying something is banable people say they got banned for doing the thing kabam said is banable why are you still convinced it's not banable?
I'm done arguing this with you. If you refuse to accept the facts, that's on you. You seem to be in major denial about the issue, and argue adamantly. One could easily assume that you engage in it, based on your incessant assertion, but I'm not one to make accusations. Although I would point out the fact that you may draw attention to your own cause. It's against the rules. It is a bannable offense. They have banned on that basis. I've got nothing more to add because this is going in circles, and I don't have time for arguing with denial and ego.
I also enjoy this aspect of the game!
You are so right. You are right with your first post and even more right with the second. 100%. Make it 110%. Bingo. You are the man (or woman).
It is just like real-life. There are absolutely no laws against murder or even cops trying to capture them.
How do we know?
Because there are still murderers running free and people are still being killed every day. That's how we know.
Have money? No problem. Just don't go around trying to "steal" back your stuff.
Want another real-life example?
There are so many people speeding on the roads that it is so obvious that the cops aren't trying to stop people for speeding. So go ahead. Go fly down that road, especially at school crossing zones. Just don't do it while drinking. They will stop you for being drunk.
Once again, you are 100% right.
No dude, you know players who have been banned for sharing accounts with someone who used a modded version of the game.
If they banned players for account sharing alone, half the players in this game would be gone.
Half the Players in the game are not breaking the rules. People have been banned for Sharing with no Modding or Mercs involved. This view is exactly the reason that the issue has become more prevalent. People are doing the wrong thing with all sorts of excuses and thinking they will get away with it. It's a ripple effect. They're sharing to move in AQ, to kill in War, to Grind the Arena, etc. Then when they see some leeway in that, they move on to offer "Services", pay for "Services", use Mercs....and it just escalates. The entire source of the problem is people believing they can get away with breaking the rules. To the point of arrogance, where they actually, legitimately belive that they run the game itself. It's that very reason that the other issues are taking place, and it doesn't matter how much they spend, what Ally they're in, or how many they say are doing it to justify it. That behavior is the source of the problem, and dealing with it will not end the game. It will mean those still playing are playing by the rules. I don't care what these Allies believe. No one is exempt from the rules, and there is no area in my mind that entertains the idea that they are in fear of taking action agaisnt the people breaking the rules that they themselves have put in place. No company would create a set of rules and allow people to break them, just to make money, or to keep it "alive". It wouldn't be a rule if that was the case. What is dizzying is that people have been using the same excuses so long that they actually believe them. The source of the issue is the brazen activities of people taking advantage of the system and of others, and that has as much to do with Sharing as it does Mercs and Mods.
Read between the lines.
This is actually an attempt to encourage account sharing and there are multiple motivations for this.
It is no different from saying "I see so many people speeding on the road so it must be okay to speed".
For some, the end game is that alliance benefit from account sharers. Not everyone in the alliance needs to share but every one benefits from it. That is why there will always be this "need" to encourage sharing even by those who do not participate in it.
For others, the end game is to encourage the competition to cheat in order to get themselves banned. I don't see this being too successful but whatever floats their boat. More power to them.
Finally, another source of motivation is to create animosity against another group of players, mainly the top spenders or those viewed as being top spenders. It is pretty obvious that he is encouraging people to believe that a certain group of people are getting special treatment.
The use of mods is a much bigger get and more destabilizing practice than anything else. Mercs might help players avoid spending 1000s of units on revives but it's limited to the quests. Mod use effects every aspect of the game as does the failure to fix game issues. Ex Pure Skill ( I really hope the game teams solution to PS is not to introduce insanely armored champs to avoid reimbursing players for a useless mastery)
