World 7 incoming

i wasn't refering to the hardcore players with apparent endless ways of cheating the system. im refering to the general population like myself that cant do all this wacky computer shit to get 2 accounts running at the same time

But why on earth would I want to advantage the hardcore players like that? What would the purpose be even be? Prevent garden-variety pot-dealing, and only allow for hardcore smuggling of dirty, industrial use hard drugs?

Sounds like prohibition level stupidity, indeed.

Jorb, what plans do you have for the whole alt situation, if any at all?

Sorry. Large question and the short answer is that I don't really know.

Such a random no. XD

Log on, change IP, log on another account, change ip, rinse repeat.

That sounds weird. You can change your ip without restart the router? Maibe you talk of proxy. And if you use the proxy it works on browsers, not on the pc. You have to log with standard client (enjoy that client lol) or ther's the need to edit cenders and add in it a Proxy system or god knows what.

Remember, if someone wan't to cheat, he'll will able to find a way. Ever.
But if you give him the plate already fulfilled with all the cheats he want, every single player will cheat. And that's when a "cheat" becomes a "game mechanism."
If only few players have the strenght to work hard to find the way to cheat, it's not called Game Mechanism and his damage is so few in the world.

And by "prevent" I really mean "make slightly more difficult" or perhaps "delay until someone releases a custom client that makes it trivial".

1 session per IP does prevent multiple accounts

NO!

How many times must I say this?

Well then isn't it even worse if some can do it while some can't?

you wouldn't, i was trying to make a point against the IP lock a lot of people seem to like

[bitza]

to fix the alt problem?

one way is that the curios do not mature when char is offline.

this is literally the best idea presented in this thread so far

People and their alts would just sit in their house logged in. It doesn't change a single thing.

except that AFK logged in alts can be killed, more blood for the blood god this way!

[bitza]

yes, snake mining (and straight mining bug) is retarded. and destroying a mine support should be an automatic cave-in on the player's head

[Zou]

its a feature not a bug
