Clarification on Multiple Accounts
Forums › General Discussion › Clarification on Multiple Accounts-
Multiple accounts show up in every MMO, since there are always players looking to get ahead. First off, using multiple accounts (o is not cheating, and it's not technically an exploit either - you won't be banned for merely having a 2nd account.
However "Mule" accounts violate the spirit of the game, and are unfair to players who don't have the resources to buy extra devices and/or Respect Points. If we determine that you have a second account you're using merely as a "mule", and you're using either account to negatively affect other players' gameplay experience, one or both your accounts will be banned. We will be handling these on a case-by-case basis.

nick, what's wrong with a capture limit to prevent mule accounts? i.e. you can only capture 5-10 turf from another player. this also helps prevent bullying.
-
No no no
-
Would someone who is using the 2nd account to boost their turf and influence on their primary account come under as a mule? And if not, it surely can't be right since your losing the money over it. Instead of paying don points to increase the turf limit on the primary account, another means has been found where the player can increase it's turf for free.
-
A mule account seems like the stupidest way I can think of to do anything. I know people think they're unfair but if someone's using a 2nd account to get new turfs why not just take those turfs from other real players? If they can't then can't those players take the turfs of both 1st and 2nd accounts?
What real advantage does a second account give anyone?
It's good that Nick is watching for people just spoiling the game but why is anyone concerned with these mules in the first place. Seems like the other user is just stupidly doing twice the work thinking they've got some sneaky short cut when it's not.
-
The problem occurs when the fed account grows so big, and because of so many turfs, they can support top market items for the mob, which typically held in check in less populated areas.
Just look at the top turf list. How many 2nd account users are up there?
-
Just because someone has made a second account and capturing it's mule's turf, doesn't mean it isn't capturing other players' turfs too.
The advantages? I thought that would've been obvious. For starters, it's free. Having a mule account to continuously create turfs to be captured by the primary is much like increasing your turf limit with Don points. Secondly, it's just a shitload more money that can go towards upkeep, turf upgrades and weapons. A luxury you may have but other, smaller players may not have. I remember my first two weeks playing this game and waiting every hour for my income to come in so that I could purchase 1 upgrade for 1 turf.

What is your definition of a mule account ? What makes a 2nd account a mule...
-
When it's only purpose is to make the primary more powerful.
-
But the attack distance is so far. I live in norway, we Are three active players here. + two of us have iPod touches. Now its fun we Are building up for a Nice war. No one Else to capture from then us three... We can attack the coast of sweden but not capture without buying a plane ticket.
When i see london/ nyc i Think wow its more fun there...
-
Btw the three of us Are collegues... So we know about the iPod touches :)
-
This post was a great start on the way to providing the rules for what is allowed for a 2nd account...but leaves too much out there for it to really be a base on what someone can follow in order to remain on the unbanned list. Clarification questions to this rule have been posted elsewhere. Nick has stated to me that this issue will be discussed again after Vendetta is completed.

This one specifically 4 night & humbug, I'm the case for the primary reason mules are unfair, u both keep saying mob up get gats but ur not realizing the extra hits the mule brings, it helps keep ur turf infl. Down so u can't buy enuff guns to keep up with ur mob, & in my case dude whole family got iPhones, so all that breaking spirit of the game stuff is bull, if u got more then 1 account it's a striaght unfair advantage that makes this game whack as hell
-
I don't think it's fair to delete anyones accounts until there is a hard definition of what a mule account is. How can you even tell?there's always accusations in the forums but ultimately how can you really tell?! (I only have one account btw)

Nick is the best. No matter where you stand on this just know: no other dev is this attentive to his gamers.
-
I don't think anyone is disputing that fact basterd. However, for those who have played this game for awhile, we see the same code of conduct posts time after time after time. Playing a game with no clear rules can be frustrating. Everything needs structure or it is doomed to fail eventually. This is said understanding that Turf Wars IS a mob game and too many rules would be rediculous!

SquareCapone...I don't think there is any argument that a player with access to more than one account has more advantage than a player with access to only one account. But the main issue here, is that EVERYONE potentially has access to more than one account...that's why it's ultimately fair. It will always be that people with the most goods and money will always have an advantage over those without...that's just life. But if you try to ban multiple accounts...you're going to have a hard time justifying to me how you can prove that someone has access to a second account that is ONLY being used by that person. Nick has pretty much stated that it can't be done (from what I can see). Which is why we are pushing for particular rules on this issue that are clearly stated so that those who do have access to multiple accounts no how they should be proceeding.
-
Nicely stated, Night. Bravo!
-
I think the rules are pretty simple:
you can have multiple accounts but:
1. you can't canabalise an account - eg account 1 builds turfs while account 2 captures them.
2. You can't use your two accounts in a vendetta.
--
while spotting a multiple account user may be tricky often it's blatantly obvious. It's also nicks problem not ours. However, personally I would ban multiple accounts outright. -
One account way enuff for me
-
just because a player does NOT cap his second accounts turf does NOT mean they arent muling. whats the point of having a bunch of 9.5k turfs when u can surround urself with ur second account's turfs and boost ur income to double or triple or quadruple that all while maintaining capo?
also squarecapone first said i was muling with steady's account. then he realized we were two different people and acknowledged such. then i called him out on how much of a falsely accusing asshole he was bein when i asked him how come he never accuses me of muling my wifes account which started way before steady's. and voila, u have this joe mccarthy bitch circuitously referring to us when he says "a whole family"
nick i have sent feedback and mentioned this in threads but when does the false accuser get in trouble? why is he allowed to keep publicly/wrongly accusing me and my fam? why is he allowed to call my wife a hoe? u ban people for way lesser offenses.
-
square capone sucks because he is right, yet cries mule like crying wolf, and is a bit of a fucktard at that.
night, whatever. you got emilio. I watch you follow his little trails he sets for you. I think this is what TTY was refering to as being "obvious.".
all I know is I set down in Norwalk excited to be in a new booming area only to find out the mules outnumbered the actual players.

First of all get over yourself prez, I was refering to, myloot, myloot2, don soprosoda & sniper007, that whole family, & when u gonna man up & admit u called me a mule of scarpone 1st, & u always protecting the mules cause in reality what would u b without ur other accounts, nothing. & as for tek & homie they have no problems with mules because they benniffit from them, goto Norwalk,CT & see, they all linked to the above family. & punk ass prez got the same setup, so we know why y'all don't think muling is cheating. They bought this game down to either bye extra phones or fight against a 2 or better advantage
-
crap I accidentally deleted my post and am too lazy to type it again. to rephrase who else is confirmed mule besides myloot?
-
Well square I'm sorry u don't have the cash to buy more devices , I no , i no ,mcdonalds Dont pay enough to buy, grape drink and another device but who's falt is that
-
My bad square section 8 don't allow u to have more than one device , but their is hope WIC. Might help u
-
Hellz yeah, Prez. I am so done listening to complainers! Especially those who hurl profanity, racism and malice all over the comment boards. My solution is two fold. First, ban anyone who falsely accuses someone publicly and second, ban those who repeatedly slander or verbally assault others. I'm all for smack talk but is this Square Capone, JCPleazy business really necessary??
