Play SecondAge while owning active OSI account

I play OSI UO and am interested in trying out SecondAge. I know OSI doesn't permit playing freeshards, and would probably ban my acct if they knew.
What i want to know is, is there any way they could find out i was playing a freeshard? Could they detect it on my computer when i log into the OSI client?
Anyone here have any experience with this?

I would think by now they're hurting for money enough that they wouldn't care...

Just install UOSA in a different folder, keep all your files separate.

OSI, will probably not be able to tell, and even so... what Faustus said.

UOSA is a lot better then OSI anyway, :P Welcome.

Just be sure you're never running Razor when you log into the OSI shards.

Ive had an UOSA account since June, and still have an active account on OSI. No problems so far.

No they can't tell (they probably could but never do as you've never heard of any banning sprees), and it's fine to use razor I believe. Just don't tell anyone because knowing OSI if you say youre using razor near anybody, theyre going to page a gm immediately and bitch about it.

"Just install UOSA in a different folder, keep all your files separate."

Last weekend sometime I decided to run on Siege again for a bit on two old accounts so I signed up again - it worked both here and there until I patched to the newest patch. My two chars here, in the Inn and at my my house, immediately could not take a step without freezing upon login - Siege chars worked fine. Ultimately, I downloaded the recommended T2A setup and run here fine but now can't log into Siege cause it isn't patched high enough.

If I install a higher patch version to be able to log on to Siege in a different directory, do I have to install razor in that directory also or will the current install work ok on both Siege and T2A from where it is installed now on my computer?

Should work were it is .. just use razors to point to the client you want to load up .. (turn auto detect off)
