    Woke up this morning to @Shane 's message in shoutbox which said that if I log into my account on someone else's computer I am account sharing. I'm really scared and nervous because I've logged into @Johnny 's computer before! OMG. Does this mean that I account shared and will get banned? I don't think I read this in the terms and conditions.. >.< I really don't want to get banned!! Shane please clarify!

    How would you log in to your own account on someone else's account?

    The third section of the terms and conditions begins with the following statement:
    "Any player accessing MapleRoyals is, by playing the game, agreeing that Game Masters (“GMs”), Administrators (“Admins”), and any other MapleRoyals Staff have ultimate discretion and authority in applying or interpreting any clause of the following section based on the evidence obtained from any source."

    Among the major infractions listed further down in the third section we find Account Sharing, described in the following way:
    "The act of sharing the use your account, sharing account information with any other individual, or the act of logging into or otherwise using an account owned by another person, with or without permission, regardless of whether or not the information was directly or indirectly shared."

    Despite the initial disclaimer about how it's ultimately up to the Staff's discretion, not to mention that I can appreciate that the staff might encounter difficulties in deciding whether or not account sharing has taken place if two players have used the same computer - there doesn't seem to be anything in the terms and conditions that lets a player know that simply playing Royals on their own account on a computer, that has also been used by someone else to play Royals on a different account at some point in time, could constitute account sharing.
