How can i split my account?

Q u o t e:
You are obviously an authority on these matters. Of course everyone in RL follows the rules to the word. How could I have been so silly to think that in RL there is a grey area.

Actually, Thunderwulf is quite knowledgeable.

It's interesting that you might bring up rule-breaking in real life. In real life violating the law can secure very unpleasant penalties, just as in in World of Warcraft Terms of Use violations can merit the same. Except, gray areas in law are determined and defined by a judicial system in a forum of debate, with prosecution and defense.

Account Administration makes absolute determinations regarding World of Warcraft accounts, and treading the gray areas is truly unwise.

Here's my question: Why put your characters at risk? Why not play straight-up, and avoid any potential unfortunate entanglements down the line?

Q u o t e:
I know a little about software "selling & transferring". As long as you give away the media, you can give away your account. Only 1 person can have the disks, so if you give the disks + account COMPLETELY, it's legal.

The EULA governs the software installed on your computer, discs, manual and box. You can indeed transfer these.

The ToU governs the account, the service, and all in-game assets. You may not transfer this. From the Terms of Use:
