premium and accounts

Is it possible to find out who I have bought premium for, and how many times?

I'm sure this is answered in the cc guidelines, but I'd like some specific clarification.

Is it allowed for two players to use the same computer. Ie, can two brothers have their own accounts, but they play them on the same computer?

If yes, what is the the criteria, or can someone direct me toward the material which lays out the specific criteria?

yes
from the [help] tab
About the rules

15. Can more than one person play from the same computer?

The short answer is yes. Our Multi Hunters are pretty good at distinguishing roommates & family members from people with multiple accounts. However, some members prefer playing only in team games with people from the same computer to avoid accusations of cheating.

Basicly there are no specific criteria, as long as you dont cheat. Cheating is taken broadly here. Do not use 2 accounts by yourself, but if you have a family and you dont use them to farm ect ect but just play fair, then all is well.

does this answer your question?

yes, thanks. What about the first question about buying premium for members. Is there a way to find out, who I have bought premium for, and how many times?

I'm pretty sure it's not tracked anywhere, and it's not possible to see who bought your premium if they don't want to let you know. I'm not sure that even the admins have that ability, but I could be wrong.

not as far as i can see. Obviously you can see it from your checking or creditcard account slip. You can check how long you still have a premiumship, but i did not see who bought it.

If someone purchases and anonymous gift certificate of Premium Membership, we do have records of that. We'd ask the person who purchased if they would be fine with letting the user know they purchased the Premium for them---and if they were not, we'd keep our lips sealed.

but the op's question was if you could see whom you bought premium for. I believe that is not part of the player accessible records. Obviously the accounts department would have it, but its not regular part of the players profile..

Yes, that was what my question was.
