Did the Something Awful Forums Just Go Pay-to-Read?

Does anybody mind to borrow me his Something Awful-account?!

Reported zombie.

Ehm, sorry, I am new and my English isn’t that good.
Have I made something wrong? :frowning:

You’re also asking to use someone else’s account. Why not get your own?

Because I just need this account to read one/two LP’s. I really understand there 10-bucks-against-assholes-rule, but I don’t think it’s fair to make it for everybody, especially if you just want to read a thread and don’t post.
Maybe it’s not a nice way and maybe (but i don’t think so) I’m going to runie something awful, but I can live with this choice. Unfortunately this LP(-translation) isn’t posted anywhere else.
And in addition I don’t understand how I am going to pay and I don’t know if it’s possible if you are just 14 years old.

And you want someone else to risk banning and loss of the fee they paid. Nice.

Well, they made the offer to do that and if it’s okay tor them, it’s okay for me. It’s not like I am going to force anyone.

Given that back in 2009 ShelliBean was offering exactly that: the use of her account, it’s not exactly a crazy thought that someone just googling around would find this thread and assume it’s for account trading. If you want to be irate at someone, go be irate at Shelli in 2009.

Sorry, but to be honest, I think it’s not quite nice to say, that I am irate at somebody. It was just asking!

Using someone else’s account violates the SAF Terms of Agreement. It’s the web equivalent of driving with someone else’s drivers’ license. It’s not a done thing.
