Against TOS to share accounts?

I wonder if this is no longer an actionable offense because otherwise wouldn’t a blue have responded?

A blue poster isn’t requrired to reply to any given thread. More so when given the right answer. If you want a blue statement on the matter:

There are generally two kinds of account sharing, those that may share access with their siblings, spouse, etc… due to circumstance or because they are generally unaware of the policy and those that share to gain advantage (i.e. power leveling, etc… ).

The latter can be damaging to the gaming environment, which is what we tend to focus on. We generally understand how it happens with the former, which tends to be less damaging overall, but can cause serious security risks for the account.

I can’t make any guarantees, Who, but our staff encounters many different situations around this. They can definitely look into it and make accommodations if at all possible. If the siblings have same last name that would definitely be a help, not to mention if she is still in contact with her brother, just in case there are questions.

No, things absolutely can change, in areas that make sense. Adding weird stipulations to who can access the account, for how long and what conditions, seems like it would lend itself to confusing what may or may not be allowed. We want to keep policies simple, so they are easily understood.

Only the registered user on the account may access the account. The only exception is that the registered user may allow a minor child, that they are the parent or legal guardian, access.
