We can call them the posse

I wonder easy it will be to accomplish this and not get banned.
FFXI would have required either some kind of hack or multiple machines. The game would shut down if it didn't have full screen mode.
It was easier to do this in WoW since you could run multiple copies on the same machine and either use a windowed mode or flip between the screens. Blizzard doesn't seem to care if you run two accounts with one on autofollow healing or something. I've done that since WotLK went live. They don't want people sharing accounts (aside from families in the same household). One of my friend's account got suspended when he and a friend were both leveling a character.
It's funny, when I first started playing MMOs (in SWG) I thought it was crazy to pay for two accounts. Yeah, there were lots of things you could do with 2 characters that you couldn't do with one. But, my thinking was it would be easier to just make friends!
In FFXI, I didn't even get a second character on Ifrit for a buck a month as a mule. In WoW, same thing. When LotRO came out, I convinced myself to get 2 lifetime subscriptions then I could 2 box without having a reoccuring additional monthly fee. I made a pocket healer that just autofollowed my character around.
That's when I realized how much you could do with two characters that you couldn't do with one. When WotLK came out, I bought a second copy, transferred my priest alt to the second account, and leveled a prot warrior and priest together. The only thing I couldn't do were appropriate level instances.
Every game I've played, I've had some kind of partner in crime

Someone I did almost everything with, so, I never really knew what it was like to be going solo and get stuck.
