Game Help / is this even allowed?
« on: July 18, 2017, 12:45:35 pm »
I DONT INTEND TO DO THIS MYSELF AS I HAVE MY OWN ACCOUNT AND CAN WAIT FOR REG TO OPEN *IF* I WANTED ANOTHER

but.... quite recently i keep seeing things on deviantart/youtube of people "SELLING" FH Accounts
i dont intend to buy any of them or anything but i was always curious.... is this even allowed? as im sure it can come with both the user who made it and the new owner sharing things thats placed on the account by mods right?
and it seems a bit odd to charge someone for like....deviantart points for an account people can literally make for FREE when registration opens for them....
personally i dont approve of the selling of FH game accounts as i believe it can come with problems
but im wondering what others (MODS ESPECIALLY) Think to this??

1) Accounts are automatically removed/deleted after 18 months (1 year and 6 months) of complete account inactivity.

2) The account is completely removed. Once it is, someone else is able to create that account, only it will be addressed to their IP. Mods/Staff will know the difference between two different people.

3) Already said this, but accounts are are automatically removed/deleted after 18 months (1 year and 6 months) of complete account inactivity. I believe this goes for both ingame and forum, as you're using the account one way or another. Though, users can now delete their accounts automatically through the User Panel, and don't have to wait around a 2 week period for their account to be deleted after making the request. That was how things were done in the past, however.

4) This really isn't an issue, as long as you make it clear that you're two different people if you don't want to be mistaken for the same person. I've had this issue before. I used to be BigBangTheory, and there was another username quite similar. BigBangTheoryBBT I belive. We got asked if we were the same person a lot, both of us made sure we gave the accurate answers of course. Though, users are always more than welcome to ask a member of staff to confirm that two users are actually two different people if username alikeness ever does occur. Especially if fights kick off. Honestly, people can be very touchy when it comes to similar usernames. That's why people are expected to create unique usernames.

5) That is correct. If I were to login to the User Panel on my Bawfle account, I can make any changes to it. Say, I change my username from Bawfle to Waffle, someone else would be able to use Bawfle after the change. Of course, I previously was a Moderator here, so I could even probably request Raz for my username to not be taken by anyone as there is a high probability that someone could impersonate me. This has happened before. Since KovuLKD (the game creator) is inactive, their account got deleted, and another user decided to register or change their username to KovuLKD and started roaming around in FH. That was dealt with nevertheless.

If you want to find out more about accounts, you're welcome to take a look at the !! Information regarding registration !! thread, or my Understanding the User Panel thread.

thank you bawfle ^^ this information helps my curiosity

Game Help / so how does this account system work?

** IM SIMPLY CURIOUS THAT IS WHY IM ASKING THIS **

So my friend and I was thinking of username idea's recently for another friend who wants to sign up we caught reg open and obviously my friends signed up now but tons we tried were taken
yeah thats common because we all think of similar or the same names right? xDDD
anyway my friend had said something about staff saying accounts get cleared/deleted after so long of no use?

Im wondering how all this works so here are my questions

1) How long is an account left un used before its removed?

2) How is it removed, like is it fully deleted for someone to sign up as again or is its account just cleared of characters and space and left standing in case its owner returned?

3) How do you know what accounts to delete which are not used, like is it judged from how often the owner logs in game or the forum?
(for example would the account be removed if the user didnt log in for like 5 years in-game but did on the forums or would that still be deemed as active? )

4) What happens if we have a similar username by chance to someone? (example someones called darkwolf and we are called .darkwolf. i've known fights to kick off for similar names and for one user to be punished for it) but of course if its not impersonation of the other player is the username fine if its open in reg to use?

5) How does username changing work?, for example if my account was called "wolf" and i changed it to "wolfy" would "wolf" become usable to anyone again with registration or could i later change back to it?

thank you for answers sorry if i've asked a question which might be better asked to staff in private please staff PM me if i have and let me know which question i wasnt supposed to ask here ^^
tnx (im just curious about this stuff thats all c: )
