from my reading it seems everybody is interpreting the issue differently and some have no idea what they are talking about.... now the system has some safe guards ie cannot permanently babysit the account. also you can only sit 2 accounts and you can appoint 2 sitters that in of itself can prevent abuse as appoint 2 sitters and give them the same set of instructions.

             many of the vets in the game know about sitting and the risks if you appoint someone and they screw your account up its your fault as it makes it clear what your getting into.

         On the other hand, anyone who's played the game any significant amount of time can think of at least once instance where an inactive account was kept active "for the good of the alliance" or whatever other reason through the sitter function.  Even if no one says it outright.

         It's less about abuse of active vacationing players accounts and more about it being used to keep inactives from being suspended.
