TDA Account Sharing

I was just contacted ingame by Contressa, with an offer to leave Legendary and join TDA.
During the conversation, something very suspicious was said to me (last chat window). What was said to me has shed some light on how TDA managed to beat Legendary in the guild rankings.
I should have explained a bit more. What I'm about to say is just my educated guess as to what goes on. I'm guessing that anyone in TDA who has given Contressa their password has their accounts logged in and taken over to Carnelia where MasterYi is waiting. Once there, MasterYi (and anyone else strong enough) starts pegging away at Carnelia (as I believe it is 72 damage = 1xp for everyone). Rinse and repeat and you've got massive amounts of level gain among many accounts.Now whether or not Contressa was trying to scam me, or was honestly going to level me up, I don't care. What I do care about is seeing something done about this. I'm pretty sure this type of thing should be against the rules.
(Surprise Contressa, you're on Candid Camera)

Huh.
Well...this is awkward.
But I agree this should be against the rules.
Something should be done.
Wow, lot's of bad things about TDA is what I've heard.
-Players can't speak English
-Scammers.
-Guild smack talk.
-And now this...
This really isn't an opinion so I'm not trying to insult anyone by any means.
These are just some facts I've gathered about TDA.
Not all are going on right now but have happened from what I can tell in the past.

Password scamming? Your are pathetic 404, do some research. I wont say any names, but i have plenty of passwords in game and NONE of them have ever been hacked; not by myself, or anyone else. How is this different from account sharing? Members in Legendary are known to do that, are you familiar with that? TDA has managed to beat Legendary because Legendary is now largely inactive, not because we try to get all of are accounts trained.
Also, EVERYONE in TDA speaks english! What does it matter if they didn't anyways? Go be upset about your loss of #1 spot elsewhere.

Regardless, account sharing is a no-no in many online games, despite it being nigh impossible to detect.
But we have clear proof right here. This isn't about a number one spot, this is about morals.
If you have to share your account with someone else to have them level you up, you're pretty pathetic.
Hopefully Robby puts his foot down on this and boots yer arse off the game for this massive account sharing.
I would definitely advise anyone who has been "sharing" their account with Contressa, to change your password ASAP and play the game normally.

If i recall Legendary was doing this a LONG time before we were.. soooo...? Also, its not something we commonly practice. I would have gotten you to an acceptable level, then stopped. Just in the last 2 days ive seen Legendary members accuse us of duping and password scamming, how about yall stop making excuses and try to pick your game up?

Ok, Contressa you seem mad about this, the only reason you'd resort to insulting 404, who has done nothing wrong (despite the usual) at this point.
All he's done here is present some research. It's you're own fault if you have been doing this and got caught.
And if Legendary did do this there's a saying my teachers use:
"The second one ALWAYS gets caught"
and in that regard they get punished.
So before you go around bragging/insulting people think about whose fault it was.
I'm sure some other people (Soul_slayer)
If they were still around would be outraged that you went around making some remarks about their guild when you're doing this to your own.
And if you intend to insult me about this post,in regards to my age,my temper,my need-of-not-being here.
Think about what you could get into.
I suggest you apologize, and stop now while you're ahead.
And not just to 404, to the game, to your members, to legendary.
This "victory" if gained this way, is hardly one at all.
@SmokeyMcpot
He's saying this about the whole guild because he doesn't know how far this spreads.
Contressa already said he has a number of passwords, that could be 5-40.
404 even said "it's a theory"
But Contressa is to be held responsible for this.It was no accident that he got passwords and is leveling guild members.
I mean why even have other people? why not just make alts and do it all for them?
It's ridiculous.
It's like using steroids in the Olympics. "a big no-no"
So he's not bashing anyone, It's all true and all right here.
If anything Contressa bashed himself.

I have to agree with Contressa....isn't it strange that TDA has been receiving the brunt end of trash talk from LEGENDARY MEMBERS at about the same time TDA has surpassed LEGENDARY on the list of top guilds. Jealousy? Probably. However, even if the screenshot 404 has given shows Contressa asking for the pass, its for the reason of helping the player, not scamming them. Your probably asking me how I know Contressa won't scam. Over the course of two weeks that I have been playing, both Contressa and MasterYi seem like some pretty nice people. They have not really given me a reason yet to not think of them as bad people. As for Contressa trying to drag 404 from LEGENDARY to TDA, I think that was deceitful. Also, even though account sharing probably happens in many guilds, it just doesn't seem right. It may sound like I am taking sides in the matter, but I am in no way taking sides. I am just simply giving my input. If you don't agree with me on some points, then that is fine. Everyone is entitled to their opinion.

I'm not a legendary member... I don't think it's right.
Why bother having members?
Why not just level alternates?

No offense, Contressa, but we don't really want to be the top guild, but the most friendliest. Legendary is a guild full of members to help others, and now you're trying to bribe another Legendary member to your guild.
And TDA is basically looking for high levels, and that doesn't bother us. You can lead a group full of kill stealers, hackers, and scammers.

Lol again, I laugh my head off... Contressa is the only one who knows my password... And it's just pathetic all legendary accuse us for, earlier Sasuke accused me for duping. Now, it's easy to check IP adresses and Rob knows which palyers who has been on my account.
And lol.. again.. I laugh my head off, I know Rob, and I speak with him on gmail almost everyday about glitches and other things, once I brought up the guild glitch and that I was gonna speed lvl my alt, and guess what... he had np with that, neither with that Contressa had my pw, as I have his as well.
And, Sasuke.. no offense, we read the legendary forum, and it's pretty clear that you want to be 1# guild.
But ya aren't, so suck it and pick up your game instead of these pathetic accuses

I'm not going to bother to argue, but here's a rule; no trying to bribe others into TDA.

"Scam" is the term he used because he didn't know if contressa was really going to or if he was just trying to get his pass words for other reasons.
While the term may be wrong, so are the morals.

You'll see.
And for the attitude? ...We're defending ourselves from all of your accuses, and what bad have I said? Contressa did say some offending stuff, but it's understandable for all the stuff you accuse us for.

Ok, a lot of this is more flame-war-esk than the topic.
Morals.Honesty.Sportsmanship. (Don't care if it's 1 or multiple words, I'm sure you get the point.)
Morals- What you think is right.
I think this is not right and somebody should own up to the fact most of TDAs members could possibly have done nothing to earn their title.
Honesty- Telling the truth/being truthful.
I also think it was a bit of a behind-the-back move to tryand recruit(a) Legendary member(s).
Sportsmanship-To be a fair/graceful team.
Honestly none of you are doing well here. 404 you're being well...you
Contressa,as already adressed by MasterYi you said some uncalled for things to me at least.
MasterYi,both you and Contressa said to "stop making excuses and step up your game"
maybe it's not that they aren't doing well but maybe because your guild could be player snatching/afk atming they seem to be doing worse.
I frankly can't come up with a soulution besides stop arguing and bragging.
It's one thing to congratulate some body but to go on another pst and rub it in is sick.
This is my take on what's going on and insulting eachother won't help.
But C'mon, "oh yay you all win the internet! here, have a big trophy, a plaque, and a hge cash prize!"

By sharing his account with a friend/family member, is YL cheating? No. Is it unfair/immoral? Possibly so, possibly not. MasterYi gangbanging Carnelia with the rest of TDA doesn't break any rules - that's assuming he actually does this. To come to think of it... Isn't this the purpose of XP share?
I'm not sure how I feel about an entire guild going to town on Carnelia, but if all my guildmates teamed up to do this, I don't think I'd object. Then again, my moral judgement here is also just opinion - and mine only.

Konrad, 404 isn't saying that MasterYi just grinds Carn with his guild mates in the room, its much more than that. A lot of guilds do that. What he is saying is that the leaders get the passwords from the guild members to place them in Carns room while they are offline and then use MasterYi's account to grind them in a large amount.

Also I am pretty sure I was the only account sharer in legendary and that no one else was doing it besides me, and i started account sharing at level 10ish way before i played this game a lot.
From reading this... I am not sure if what i understood is right but it seems that the reason TDA got to #1 is because they had their members give their passwords to other people in the guild so that they could level up other members to get number 1.. Not sure if that is true. But that is completely unfair if they are leveling members in carnelias room without even being there just to get number 1. I feel like those players should actually be online to level their account, rather than give their leader passwords to get number 1. Just my thoughts
Note I have shared accounts with family members but usually we were hanging out and it was just for fun.
