Now, I've read the policy on ( https://store.station.sony.com/eq_char_item_moves/ ) and am wondering a few things that I'd rather hear from people with experience doing this.
I've been planning for a while now to transfer my character off of the current EQ account. I share the account, but I am not the name on the credit card--that is, I'm not paying for this account. I read on the eqlive page how it is a violation to transfer a character between two accounts owned by different cardholders (and the unsettling reference specifically to this act in the 3rd-to-last guildlines bullet). It would be my name on the card for the destination account.
Now, I see people in-game auctioning to trade characters across accounts in this way. And I want to say I know it's been done (the only hesitation being that I haven't actually seen it take place). My question is a vague one: could anyone with experience or knowledge--I don't like "welliheard".. see Sleeper page for examples--in this subject enlighten me as to what the "real" policy is.
That is, will Sony slack on actually tracking people who do this? How will they punish/do they really care, or is it like traffic laws... they exist, and will be punished, but likely you'll get away with them? I mean, we pay them a hefty price for the transfer. Don't hold back, even if a detail seems unimportant. The more details, the better.
Thanks.
Afterthought: I'm referring specifically to all-item-transfers, but if there is anything to note in Sony's action toward naked transfers different from the item one, that would be helpful too!
