Thread: Multiplaying Mania - Delete Fake Accounts!

  1. #1

    Default Multiplaying Mania - Delete Fake Accounts!

    On SS27 the coalition owning Thuringia (UTA) made a concerted effort following the merger to capture and NPC every available flat (at higher levels) as a defensive measure and to ensure farmability.

    Of course our goal was discovered before we were able to complete it. Hostiles chose to counter this by making many dozens of fake accounts/logins in our state. Now with these fake accounts they can open a flat at will, (which would be the only one) random port to their intended location, and attack immediately.

    I and others have reported this both as a bug and as a user violation, yet the accounts remain.

    Since I choose to always be critical in a constructive way I have some suggestions in case deleting the accounts based on standard multiplaying indicia is not workable. Any one of these would help discourage the multiplaying currently going on.

    a) No free teleports for newbie accounts. Award one at ~25k prestige.
    b) If an account is created and not played more than 15 minutes by the end of beginner protection, delete it.
    c) Do not let newbie accounts choose a home state. Make them use their intial port to go to their intended location.

    Obviously if you agree I would appreciate you saying so here to encourage Evony to do something about it.

    Thank you,

    Simple solution to this = Remove the RESTART GAME button. Without that, the offending players cannot just delete the fake acct themselves and port in with the real acct.

    I think it is ridiculous that the game let's you fill up all flats. There should be a range limit of 20 miles for building a new city. Also, barbarians should sometimes abandon cities, particularly when there are a lot of them. Finally, when you abandon the city you should have the option to raze it, leaving behind a flat.

    I think its rediculous that an allaince is trying to make it to where there is room only for their alliance in that state..........................wheres the fun in not having anyone to attack...........if your alliance cant defend then go play a nice, happy go lucky, friends game. the most fun is when 2-5 strong alliances are in the same state see who will rule................your npcing every flat is just as shady as makeing fake accounts, even if its not against any rules

    Food for thought and I tend to agree with all but the last option, c. I like being able to make it to where I know a friend or ally is if I use more than one server and we are allowed to from ONE account, not only multiple.

    You have no right using UTA. UTA was originally my idea, and when the Buses decided to become facists, they broke it up.

    I claim all intellectual rights to UTA (United Thuringian Alliance).

    The fake accounts on server 84 have their own alliances. I'm sure EVONY can spot the fake ones.. whether anything will be done about them is another matter.

    I so don't agree with A and C,actually C is quite sick in my opinion,I'd like to choose which state I wanna be in if I start on another server,for example,I'd wanna be in Moravia no matter what,and I do not want to waste a porter...
    A - I actually do agree a little.. but also disagree,because I think 1 is not enough.. maybe you get to choose which state you go in the beginning,get 1st porter at 25k prestige,2nd at 50k prestige,and 3rd at 100k prestige?

    but is that fair at all, when i first join i always pick carinthia, but after i find alliance i want to port there, most alliance dont let you in unless you are already in that state, mabey for old servers this should exist but for the newer ones you should keep it how it is now
