    This is what might be needed so that retired players like me come back into the game!

Bot or no bot, alts or no alts, we can log in-client and time to the same second attacks to kill over 6 mil mech in 3 seconds. THAT is the skill of game mechanics that the troop hoarders, who wouldnt be able to function without hiding behind mass troops, know nothing about. (Not saying this describes you, just saying it does a lot of people.) "I need alts! So I can build 50 mil mech so no one can clear my city!" That is the vibe im getting from reading these threads about this IP limit stuff. Learn to defend and you wont need all those troops to feel safe, hence you wont need all the alts. And it makes me laugh because those players who know how to play, and know how to clear a war city 5 times bigger than them with way fewer troops, arent worried about this at all.

    I am not trying to sound condescending or whatever, but really people. The game was designed to be a battle game, where you need to learn game skills to play and be successful at it. So instead of chanting "NO LIFT, NO COIN!" in threads, you could, idk, PLAY THE DAMN GAME!
    Well then miss greatest evony player of all time, How are you going to go about killing over 6mil mech in 3seconds without alts or botting? Because you'll be damned lucky to even have the capability of building enough mechs for a couple mech waves let alone an entire series!! That "skill" you're talking about, wouldnt even exist because no one would have the resources/time to build like it is now. Besides, you assume i use mech defense, newsflash... i don't. With gate breakers being as fashionable as they are nowadays and lag continuing to be a b1tch (even after this pathetic attempt of helping to stop lag from happening), i think you'd be nuts to try to use it, but from what you said it sounds pretty obvious you do.

    Glad to hear it.

    You described it in the bottom of post #1. Dis allowance of transporting resources etc. And you said "This system will not use your IP to determine multi-account status. Multiple users may log on from the same IP, free from any restrictions, as long as they are using their own computers." "Accounts will not be automatically banned for multi-accounting. The only thing that our system will do is flag the accounts as being played from the same computer to disallow resource and troop sharing." Seems reasonable. We get IP limit taken off and would stop need for multi accounting by not allowing to transfer resources. Problem solved ? Or what flaws would there be cause what you described seemed reasonable in the original post. I linked you by the why.

    Edit: I linked it on page 4 is why I refereed to it the way I did
    What I described in that post would do absolutely nothing. We long ago scrapped the idea of restricting resource sharing based on IP. Players attack the bots that they run to get the resources. But I'm sure you knew that.

    You won't need to kill 6 million mechs in 3 seconds because no one will have 6 million mechs. That kind of troop count can only be supported by multi-botting. Without multi-botting, those will just die down to reasonable numbers that can be supported.

    That was my point, it was obvious she was gloating about some lucky kill she got in on an offline player. So i was very happy to let her know she wouldnt get such luck again with these changes. After all she is one of the "biggest players on her server"

    Maybe a compromise is in order. 3 connections is a little low, I think there would be less angry remarks and a lot more happy evony customers if it was upped to 10. This would solve the various members of family wanting to play, being able to play other servers at same time, and open battle reports. Maybe stopping the beginner accounts going to the old servers is also an option and will kill off all the flat fillers that appear.Put the 3 limit on the new servers, people going there will know what they are in for, new players wont miss what they never had. Again this is a compromise rather than the bend over and take what we say as given attitude that is upsetting everone

    If Evony compromises, it would mean they are bowing to the bot and multi-account users.

    I believe that Evony is now taking a stance and shouldn't back down.

    It's really time to tighten the belt and dictate to the players what can and cannot be done.

    Honestly, I'm looking forward to the IP restrictions and cutting down on secondary accounts. Multi accounts will be impossible to stop totally, but they can be limited. The troop numbers are just ridiculous at this point. No skill is necessary in defending or attacking. Players can just throw troops knowing they can holiday for a few weeks while their secondary accounts rebuild troops (to pass to them) and collect resources.

    To pull this off effectively I think Evony will need player support and input. Just relying on your staff for this would not be a good idea. I'm sure they are smart people and all, but you have some really witty players that have been here for a while.

    That is a stupid argument. Plain and simple. 3 accounts per person. Everyone is on a level playing field, except for a few who manage to get around it. But they've always existed. There is only one reason anyone would disagree with this change. They want to out-troop people instead of out skill them. THAT IS IT.

    Sure some people have families. Fine. But there is a system in place for dealing with that. If you don't want to use that system, there is probably a reason.

    Also, you can't build mechs with 3 accounts? I can feed 500m upkeep with 3 accounts, Lol.

    (BTW, you can still bot, Evony is "giving" you that. So quit crying)

    Honestly, this is about the best way they could have gone about fixing it. It's a little annoying, sure. But I know I'll continue to play, I'm looking forward to it.

    Do people forget how the world works? Lol... It's THEIR game. Play it or don't play it. They don't owe you a compromise.

    The "3 accounts per person" rule is only in effect if someone is botting. If none of the accounts are botting, then they can have up to 10 connections already. So families who are following the rules will not be affected by this.
