Hi, thanks for the reply. 1) I don't really buy the idea of the account being a bot. A human can still make mistakes and that there will be delays in responses hence with those API timings. It makes the account less likely to be tagged as a bot but may remain flagged if at that. A bot is less likely to be able to make mistakes unless deliberately programmed to make mistakes but then those mistakes would be at the same areas which would make things obvious. A bot making random mistakes would ultimately end up being a human so it is highly unlikely that they'll go after the accounts unless they have susceptible reasons.  One potential case maybe is that the player is active in different timezones, so an account shared by someone from say GMT -8h with someone from GMT +8h would be somewhat suspicious but not as suspicious as when and if there are gaps in the timing or transition. However the time variances between Tassana and myself is very minimal so that is again unlikely. 2) It is possible for DMM to request to change password if they suspect there was a need to but as of writing such cases of it happening. A possible case may involve two users with different ISP that uses dynamic IP addresses. If that were to happen over prolonged period then they may raise some flags. That isn't really the case here to say the least.
