Umm maybe *you should*, it allows* transferring* but only in a
specific manner. And certainly not in the manner accounts on Ebay are
being sold. Notice the EULA dos not use the word *SELL*.
Mythic allows this basically for account transfers within families,
between friends etc., DIRECTLY, not by auction or by professional
account sellers. I won't highlight all that shows this but it's plain
to see from what I have. How many accounts sold on Ebay meet the
criteria Mythic require in this EULA?.
E. TRANSFER OF RIGHTS TO YOUR ACCOUNT
You shall be permitted to transfer once to another person eligible to
obtain an Account your right to access and use your Account (but not
items, characters and attributes of characters separate from the
Account), on the following terms and conditions:
****N.B. *ONCE* That is the account can be transferred once ONLY.
You may not offer to transfer the rights to any Account(s) except your
own, or act as a "broker" or intermediary (for compensation or
otherwise) for any others wishing to transfer or obtain Accounts. You
may not transfer the rights to your Account to any entity or person
ineligible to have an Account under the terms and conditions of the
EUALA. You may not transfer rights to any Account which contains
characters whose attributes are, in whole or in part, developed, or
which contains items, objects, or currency obtained or acquired, in
violation of the terms of the EUALA. The transferee must obtain all
rights in your Account in a single transaction, and you must retain
absolutely no control or rights over the Account, or the characters,
items, and attributes associated with that Account. You must
physically deliver the CD-ROM, and all original packaging,
documentation, (including the keycode on the jewel case) associated
with the Account, and keep no part of such materials or any copies
thereof. You must deliver to the transferee your secret word,
password, account name and all information regarding your account
other than personal billing information such as credit card number,
Pay-by-Cash information, billing information, etc. You must deliver to
the transferee a copy of the EUALA then in effect, and the transferee
must, as a condition of accessing the System through the transferred
Account, agree to be bound by all the terms and conditions of the
EUALA.
***No BROKERS or intermediaries, as in Ebay, Professional account
sellers etc.
***You may not transfer rights to any account which contains
***characters whose attributes are, in whole or part, developed, or
***which contain items, objects or currency obtained or acquired, in
***violation of the terms of the EULA.
***You must physically deliver the CD-ROM, and all original packaging,
***documentation, (including the keycode on the jewel case) associated
***with the Account
You must notify Mythic, via electronic mail to
transfers@darkageofcamelot.com, not later than three (3) days after
concluding the sale that you have transferred the Account, including
in your notice the following: your true name and current mailing and
e-mail address, login name and player name associated with the
Account; the true name and current mailing and e-mail addresses of the
transferor (you) and the transferee, and the following statement: "I
HEREBY CERTIFY THAT, ON [INSERT DATE OF TRANSFER] I TRANSFERRED ALL MY
RIGHTS TO ACCESS AND USE THE DOAC ACCOUNT IDENTIFIED ABOVE, TO THE
PERSON IDENTIFIED ABOVE, AND THAT SUCH TRANSFER COMPLIES WITH ALL THE
TERMS AND CONDITIONS GOVERNING ACCOUNT RIGHTS TRANSFERS, AS SET FORTH
IN THE CURRENT VERSION OF THE DARK AGE OF CAMELOT(TM) END USER ACCESS
AND LICENSE AGREEMENT, WHICH I FURTHER CERTIFY I HAVE READ AND
DELIVERED TO THE TRANSFEREE." The subject field of the e-mail must
contain only the name of the account that is being transferred. Mythic
Entertainment assumes no obligation or responsibility for any
misspelling or typographical errors on your part.
YOU SHALL NOT BE ENTITLED TO ANY REFUND FOR AMOUNTS PREPAID ON THE
TRANSFERRED ACCOUNT, AND DEPENDING ON WHEN IN THE BILLING CYCLE THE
TRANSFER IS MADE, AND WHEN YOU NOTIFY MYTHIC, YOU MAY BE CHARGED FOR
THE ACCOUNT FOR AN ADDITIONAL MONTH FOLLOWING THE TRANSFER. Any
transfer of rights to access and use an Account shall not transfer any
of Mythic’s rights, title or interests, in or to the System, the Game,
the Game Content or the Software, other than the transferee’s right to
access and use the Account in accordance with the terms and conditions
of the EUALA then in effect. ANY TRANSFER OR ATTEMPTED TRANSFER NOT IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE FOREGOING TERMS AND CONDITIONS IS PROHIBITED,
SHALL BE VOID, AND SHALL NOT BE BINDING ON MYTHIC. ANY TRANSFERS OR
ATTEMPTED TRANSFERS OF ANY RIGHTS IN AN ACCOUNT SHALL BE ENTIRELY AT
THE RISK OF THE PARTIES TO SUCH TRANSACTIONS, AND IN NO CIRCUMSTANCES
SHALL MYTHIC BE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE TO ANY PERSON FOR ANY ACTS,
OMISSIONS, STATEMENTS, REPRESENTATIONS, DEFAULTS, OR LIABILITIES OF
THE PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH TRANSACTIONS. THIS DISCLAIMER
SHALL BE INDEPENDENT OF ANY OTHER LIMITATIONS ON REMEDIES SET FORTH
HEREIN.
