Account Sitting

Post by Kaplowitz »

<Subject>:

* Concise Idea: Account Stting


<Body>:

* Suggestion Idea: A special setting that allows someone to watch your games, but is safe.
* Specifics: Under "Personal Menu" there is a tab that says "account sitting". When you know you are going away for a little while, you can go to this tab, and put a couple of names that you would want to play for you. Each of these people would get a PM saying that they were selected to account sit for you. They would go to their Account Sitting tab, and click OK. Once one person agrees to play for you, the other players will lose their chance.

So that there is no confusion, there could be a tab under my games next to "Active" that says "****'s Games". When you play for someone, and you comment in their game- it will appear as your name.

for example:
Players:

\\\♦/// (sergeant first class)Kaplowitz
\_/ (private) MasterKujacbnsh
Game Chat:

MasterKujacbnsh: haha! i killed Kamchatka!
thejoker693: Ohs nos!

* Why it is needed: Currently, players just give their passwords away-often to people they dont know. This makes it secure, because they person cannot change anything about your info (pass, profile, etc.) and cant post for you.

Just give it to someone who you are not in any games with and that you trust. ;)
