No. You will not.

Also... account sharing is a bannable offense.

How did you Veterans start?

I think what Shah meant was that you were allowing your friend access to an account owned by you. I'm not sure if this is directly enforceable by CPP, but the reason why it is in place is due to "account hacking" where an account is stolen due to account sharing.

That aside, as long as the credentials are completely separate you should be ok from being "hacked", but your friend might as well make their own account so that they get all the benefits anyways.

no its legal. https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=5241022

that is explicitly regarding accounts owned by the same person being operated manually at once from the same computer.
you are allowed have multiple clients up on your pc,

if you share the login credentials with anyone, you risk having the account(s) banned.

For some reason I got confused by the title of the thread. So:

- if you have a friend who wants to be your buddy, or if you want to use the buddy program for your own alts, you or your friend must create new account for the buddy; you/they cannot set up an existing account to be your buddy.

- otherwise if you have a friend who wants to play, they must set up their own account, you are not allowed to let them play your account or give them your passwords.

I think hes talking about the "Invite a friend" system where you send out a mail request to someone, including yourself, to get a plex after that account becomes a full subscription account.

Perhaps some parenthesis wouldve helped there in the title, but oh wells.
