Awesome idea.. but thst is also double edge sword.. especially for pushers and stuff... So even tho how good it is, its also bad..

Quote from BombHead1987

so what if a player who quits gives the right to their account back to GF? not all accounts would be given back but a fair amount might be and GF would control 100% of the account if contractual then surely the contract can be changed to suit both parties ?

or change the T&Cs they are not law and not bound by law of any country

im no lawyer but surely somebody here knows a lawyer who could look into this and GF surely has a legal team who could look into this kind of idea i like the idea if it keeps accounts playable and unis alive then why not

i know GF open unis every month or two simply because they make a ton of money from DM at the start of a uni in comparison to mid-late stage unis but if they had another way to make money then they should be open to the idea and should have their legal team look into it

Since GF is under German Law in concerns to the enterwebs . the law is clear as long as host site provider . has provided a legal T+C that complies with all aspects of governing law's any developed account. is the property of the account holder. not the account provider< GF / that said to a be able to allow GF to offer abandoned accounts. Gf would have to contractually buy back the accounts with purchased dm into account. time and effort. developemental state and time spent on structures .research, defenses and fleet craft. this could cost GF on a ball park guess 35k per account. after deducting local taxes the buyers local taxes. and depreciation of the account due to none active play. there is no real way for GF to do this with out losing money causing far less game support and so on. and patches would be slipshod at best if we would get any since most moneys would be going out to buy up abandoned accounts back.
