Cant tell you any ETA for launch yet. As soon as we know how much time is needed, we will make an announcement. But cant tell you when this will be. Depends on what still has to be done and how fast it is done.
Regarding to your 2nd question about sharing accounts, take a look at our server rules.
"1. Account Policy
1.1 Multiple Phoenix accounts are not permitted and will be banned without warning. There may only be one account per person. Measures are incorporated to detect multiple user accounts.
1.2 Account security is the responsibility of the account owner. Within the Phoenix services, do not reply to anyone claiming to be a Administrator, World Builder, Developer, or other staff member who is asking for your password.
1.2.1 Sharing accounts is NOT strictly prohibited but is done so at the user's own risk. The problem with sharing accounts is that it makes it almost impossible to determine who is playing the account, and thus both players (and both their accounts) become responsible for any misconduct on either account. Be safe and just don’t do it.
1.4 Any and all stolen and/or compromised accounts that are reported to the Phoenix staff may be suspended in order to conduct an investigation. On Phoenix servers, characters are not restored or replaced.
1.5 Any player found to be involved in an account theft may have any and all of his/her accounts banned."
