You may not like rule about account abandonment, but your friend has no rational grounds to complain since he agreed with the terms of use by the act of logging in. I would be angry if that happened to me, but I'd only have reason to be angry at myself for not being more careful with the account and knowing the policies.
And no, it's not against the EULA to give your login details to another person so they can keep your account alive if you are going into the wilderness for 2 years.
