    thanks palem,

    sounds like if she just plays on the other PC it should be fine, but she cant be in my KD cause then we would get banned being at war or something chaining the same prov from what i gather...

    Not banned. You just get blocked from interacting with the same provs. I played for quite a few ages with a husband and wife that played Attacker and TM with very few issues

    Yes. There is a system that prevents people on the same IP (that would be your gf) from interacting with each other. It's a hard block, so if my wife and I are both playing, and I attack province x, she can't attack province x for 24 hours. So what that means is if you're both attackers, you can't hit the same target.

    There are some additional heuristic checks we do beyond that to identify multis as well, so don't log each others accounts :).

    You don't think it will mainly incite people to multi ... and reward them for it ?

    Right, it* can be caught looking at behavior I would guess, but as long as u are bit a bit careful that is fairly easy to hide then.

    As others have pointed out, doesn't this encourage (even to atleast trying) multi? And will it not reward the current multi-cheaters that get away with it?

    It would be something you could live with, but I would like this to be addressed, please. I would like to see a thought process around it. Possible benefits, and possible consequences?

    I can understand everyone's concern about the principle and ideology of in-game bonuses...but really the bonuses they are offering is not even significant in the short term...where it can be long term as it rewards the ultra active and dedicated of players

    its not like there was any other incentive to log in without it

    sure if you play only one province, but if you play at least 10 in the same kingdom, yes it does matter
    fine for goofing around with fake wars, -10 for bonuses in real war

    Is Referral Bonus abuse possible with existing account IP addresses? Chained provs who want to reset, destroying their provs and being recruited in utopia and invited to the KD? Or perhaps 2 email IDs and accounts and alternate use of said accounts every other age so the 2nd may be "referred in" after an age break? I haven't attempted such conniving experiments. I would like to hope such abuse is not possible, but who would brag if it was happening?

    Referral gains are really too much. Also, do they carry over to the next age? ... Hope not.

    Hey there,

    I just tried a reffaral system for an old player that hasn't played in YEARS, yet his account i guess is active so it throws an error.

    Are you going to delete users from your systems after MIA for years and/or allow refferal for MIA vets after X years of inactivity...

    Just wanted to share.
