Knock 'em out Mr MMA man. Show 'em who's the boss.

Seriously, how can you complain about a service you're not paying for...

John, now read this. . .
In the Q&A, Q 16 spells this out before a GameKnot member even joins:

<< "Free memberships are limited in many ways -- such as the number of games you can play at the same time and very limited access to many advanced features.

"Not being able to share the same computer with other players is one of such limitations
(due to frequent abuse of our free accounts, unfortunately)." >>

Originally I became a paying member simply to rid myself of those ad banners which were annoying me.After those disappeared,my loading speed and page switching speed seemed to get much faster as well.As to mulitple accounts,one may risk account suspension if one player plays the other one using the same account,especially to gain rating points...for who is to know if it actually the same player or someone different.At the very least with the IP checks of GK,your account will almost always list whoever else's handle name is being used from the same computer/account.Theoretically,less players will want to play someone who has more than 1 name on their profile,for it sometimes suggests cheating even if there is no cheating going on at all.
I became a life member a while back and am glad I did.Well worth it.Question is...when i'm ready to kick the bucket,can I turn the life membership over to someone else?Probably not,but who will actually know,if my computer is in my will as well?Ha ha!
