    So I was reading through the rules when I came to this-
    • Clause 2 - Multiple Accounts

      • You may not use multiple accounts to financially benefit yourself. If you are caught using two or more Minecraft accounts to benefit you, all accounts will be banned and you will lose the ability to play on the EcoCityCraft server permanently.
        • If you have a second account, which is being used legally, you must contact a staff member immediately and inform them.
      • Multiple accounts on the same internet connection/IP are allowed so long as the accounts are used by different people.
      • Users may be questioned for being on the same internet connection, or, in cases of suspicious activity and bans, immediately banned regardless of the reason for the same connection, to be appealed with an explanation.
    Does this mean that a player can have multiple accounts on ECC as long as there is no interaction between the accounts? If so, what counts as "benefiting" for each account?

    One example of benefiting is if you have the 2 accounts open and you play SG over and over with your two accounts letting one win and one be the dummy for profit.

    Another example is having another account to vote and then give the items to you.

    I believe even without the intention to scam it is still illegal for the 2 accounts to trade even if its a fair trade. This is probably because it is too much of a hassle to find out what actually especially if only senior staff can review it.

    So this means that if I were to have two accounts, but only one is online at a time, as well as little to no interaction between them, it is allowed?

    I believe so, as long as theres no interaction which would be easier if one was off when the other one is on but still be careful because sometimes you will forget and then you have the possibility of a getting permanent ban.

    Maybe a mod can shine some light here @Joliver1998 @7amoodw

    This is correct, however you must let staff know the accounts as soon as possible.

    The interaction can have no fiscal benefits whatsoever, this means no money, item, transfers. This also means that you cannot use an alt account to be afk on rail in a farm that your other account owns as it would be indirectly fiscally benefiting your main account. I hope that give a simple picture of what this means.

    That helps a lot. However, what types of interaction are allowed between accounts?

    Also, are forum accounts allowed for alts, in order to rank up, ect. Or do they stay builder forever?

    Okay, alts are allowed, and can be used as a regular account as long as the two don't interact at all. Thank you all for the clarification.
