Would having a Horde and an Ally online at the same time be against the rules?

[thinus]

The only problem I have is with stealth...you need to wait for rogues & druids to make the 1st move, which can be annoying. But apart from that, I love playing on a PvP server...wouldn't have it any other way

NERF HUMAN PERCEPTION!!!
As a rogue without MoD5 I might as well walk around unstealthed when a warlock pops Perception with a Felhunter out. O perception, how I hate thee, let me count the ways.

ok .. I have been thinking about this for a bit and wanted an opinion. Since we all have more than one account (obvious lol) if you rolled whatever type of toon, 1 each faction .. lets say for argument 1 dwarf war and 1 undead war, went to a nice little out of the way, out of line of site for other players, and just took turns killing yourself over and over ... how long would it take to get any kind of decent honor? 8) and, would it be against any kind of rules since you are obviously playing both factions at the same time? just been a curiosity for me since I mainly play alli and my gf plays horde.

I'm fairly certain that is against ToS. But with diminishing returns it would take quite a long time I'm sure.

[Eteocles]

Except diminishing returns are gone in 2.4; though regardless you'd get shit for honor + spend alot of time corpserunning since all the cross-faction shared GYs are in not-out-of-the-way spots, and you'd gain very little per kill making AV more worthwhile, plus you'd have to get the char(s) to a lvl worth using any honor-bought gear. ALot of work for very little return

That's what I figured, but it would have just been kinda interesting if it would work. lol

This would clearly be exploiting. Expect to be banned if you do this.

Apart for the legality of it, it just wouldnt be feasable. after the 3rd or 4th kill, u start running into rez timer problems. And the small amount of honor you get for the kill just makes it a waste of time.

I've heard of this being the case on pvp servers, preventing a player from using 2 accounts to harass someone by ganking them, part of the reason why you can only have one faction on a pvp server.

Actually I remember one really infamous rogue (orc) back in the day who would gank people at wetlands harbor. he'd be logged in on his alliance character (separate account) the whole time to mock them, hear what they were saying and what not.

so no, after all the reports to gm's about him without any bans, i'd say it's fine. he used to have a site up with ss's of all the messages he got, or at least the best ones.

however, it's always best to check yourself, times may have changed, or even if it's still the same, relying on the word of a total stranger ( me ) is not worth betting your time / money leveling a group on =)
