Okay some extreme "out of the box" thinking
Having multiple accounts is prohibited. But every player knows that there are still a lot. If small players can be helped by their alliance, the number of new multies will increase enormously.
It is possible if multiple accounts are no longer prohibited. Of course, the current multies must remain punishable: the offenders may not be rewarded.
If making a new multi -account is no longer prohibited, there will be more accounts in the game and the mods will need less time controlling players on multi accounts ( only controling the old accounts).
Attacking smaller players will be more risky: it may be a multi of one of the larger players.
"If you can not beat them, join them
The same for taking over or selling castles or accounts. This is now being done secretly. Let BitMeUp sell their own castles. In itself this does not change the game; it also happens now. Of course, the newly bought castles, like the new accounts have 14 days of attack protection. And at the same time jumping castles can get a 14 day attack protection.
Some players might want to point fingers to me: if you want to legalise multies you must have some. No i don't. I only see and hear a lot. And i tell the players that wants to point a Dutch saying : If the shoe fits it is pulled on. It means: anyone who is guilty will feel addressed, the generic story is reacted to as if it was specific.
I have been in a lot of alliances and there have been player absent at the same time to reconnect minutes after each other. I have seen accounts that never answered pm's, that were not active and when attacked some other player just magical knew and took revenge. And in the times of big point it was just openly said, as there was no control on multies as there was no control on the use of bugs.
We can talk "you know who" here or we can say voldemort. There are multies in the game.To deny is only to delay the solution. Finding and banning multies cost a lot of time, time that can be used better to make the game attract more players. BitMUp already has hands full on the Damoria game and they have done wonders in the area of control of the rules. As there had not been controle for years.
I do not want to legalise the multies that are in the game now. They are against the rules. I only would like to discus the rule about multies. Make it possible to start a new account (accounts). Big players who can no longer build can start a new account. The puppyprotection can be removed for players in the same alliance. New players can get some growing help from alliance members. And BitMeUP only has to controle the old multies, what they are already doing. So less work iso more work.
