Well of course.
It was my understanding that you're only allowed one account per person, period. Yeah, you can pay for someone else's, like I pay for my son's, but that still means one person per account. Of course I know it's completely unenforced.
[EDIT: I see I'm behind the times, the rules say it's been permissible to have multiple accounts for a while now.]
It's also true that when you're caught botting YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO BE BANNED. Permanently. Not suspended. Not rolled back. Supposedly, they research any other accounts the offender is linked to and ban them too. They refuse to make any serious attempt to enforce this either, as demonstrated by the many stories here and the evidence of your own eyes in the game.
If people were being banned frequently NOW, when you have to risk your own account to do it, you wouldn't see long lines of bots running back and forth all over the place. The message would soon go out -- if you do it your account is toast. Seeing so many now proves they are failing to get rid of bots in two ways. They don't get rid of the ones you see. And they're failing to disincent botting effectively by failing to enforce their rules.
You people only accept their story that they're going to crack down because it suits your current preference.
When this goes through you'll be complaining about bots like those of us who tried to warn you are now. And I won't be interested in hearing your complaints. I'll demand a test: did you vote to revert? If yes, shut up.
