So, you're mad that most of the whales in the game are allowed to play? What do you think would happen if they actually banned everyone that fell under the account sharing?

Also, the rules *do* apply to everyone, it's just that everyone else is smart enough not to DM the head of cheating enforcement about a problem with an account they shouldn't be using.

1) We all know it would be a nightmare. If CG were to do that, they would lose out. However, if they were to do that it would tell us that rules are rules and they should be followed.
2) Do they? Negotiating with cheaters who spent money, yet perm-banning someone for a minor offence is applying rules to everybody, yes. But, there is not point in rules if punishments for disregarding those rules are not equal, or handed out fairly. Say you were doing a really important test for school etc. One guy cheats on and during the test, and is only given a minor deduction to their marks. You bought someone to help you study for this test so you could pass. The teacher finds out and you get an instant 0. What would be your reaction.
It’s not the best of analogies but I think it gets the point across.

I agree, if you cheat, it should be a perma-ban regardless. But it never has been, so that's not new. They have also always shown deference to the whales, so that's not new either.

When you really boil it down, they are CG's rules, they can enforce them or not at their discretion, and dole out punishments as they see fit, whether you like it or not.
