co-owner question

**kingtony** · 4th April 2007, 09:06 AM

if i am a co-owner to a friends account house and he decides to quit uo i already have a house of my own do i get to keep his house being a co-owner or does the house fall after he quits

sadly it falls, unless you set up a "dummy" account and have him transfer it to you before the account goes inactive. if you need a account code pm me, i think i have one

**kingtony** · 4th April 2007, 09:37 AM

thank you for the offer but what exactly is a dummy acount and account code ..and for him to transfer it to me do we both have to be online at the same time

Nevaeh · 4th April 2007, 10:54 AM

dummy account is an account thats sole purpose is holding a house. and yes you both need to be on at the same time for him to transfer it to you(or a dummy account)

How does the house not fall then ? Do you have to pay for 2 accounts every month ?

Nevaeh · 4th April 2007, 09:34 PM

yes....

unless you transfer it to a NEW dummy account

Morgawr · 4th April 2007, 10:47 PM

So I have to keep transfering ? I dont understand

Morgawr I will try explain it as this was some thing I wasnt clear on to begin with.

Each UO account you have can hold ONE home only,on ONE character,.on ONE shard.You cannot have a house for each character,nor can that account have homes on different shards.

[The only exception to this is if you create a character on the Test Centre,where you can place a house]

When people buy a boxed UO game,you receive 1 account game code.However on the reverse of the box is another game code.Each code, needs to be paid for however.

Often players never activate these codes,and therefore Nevaeh is offering you one of her 'unused codes' [ I think

]

If you want to hold another building,you have to open a second account,even if you are not active on that account.

As long as you pay for both accounts ,both houses will stay .

Hope that helps ?

Can anyone confirm this as I have been told that could use a acctivation code and occasionaly buy game time codes as long as I am a co owner and refresh the house regularly It wont fall ?

The house on an inactive account (i.e. one that you have stopped paying for) will stay up for about 90 days after the account has gone inactive. If you reactivate the account before the 90 days is over, the house will again stay up until you cancel the account, after which it will again stay up for 90 days.

was this unclear enough?
