It's hardly arbitrary and meaningless. You'll find similar policies for many other online games. I need to have faith that if someone contacts me/a GM with an account issue, that I'm speaking to the owner of the account and not one of his friends he let on it who may or may not be trying to get him in trouble or rob him blind. If you can't understand why I would want to close off accounts I know that could happen with (ones that I know multiple people have access to), then that's too bad, but that's just how it is. Let's not bother getting into the obvious issue of how this is an RP game and that letting someone else play your character goes against that.
