Hey, don't be like that. You appear to consider this something very important and started this thread under
the apparent premise of discussing ways to end perk-farm dual account cheaters from perk-farming with a
second account. This would do it. Nothing to farm. Second account useless. If you don't like this method,
give reason. Don't pout.  :aok

I am sorry sir for some reason it seems as if you are trolling me in here.

Not only is the problem solved, but it will diminish spawn camping and vulching as well.

I like it!  (make it 3, for the formations, like someone said)

only problem, I'd almost bet that 50% of the kills in the arena are from spawn camping and vulching.

problem is vulching and camping legitimately is fun.  People would still do it if you took away the score / perk benefits.  

It may even increase the activity if players wrongly believe that their repeated deaths have less value to the killer.

The only way of dealing with that sort of gameplay is to limit the amount of time between lives which we all know would open another can of worms.

Vulching and camping are a different story than me starting a second account and farming it for the purpose of perk points that I would otherwise not have in order to fly a plane I would not be able too.

The post by Delirum was a good solution but would need "tweaked" it's not an end all.

can you blame him when you are posting stuff like this?  :lol


I want to create 3 accounts and I have 3 computers in which too run all of these accounts actively at one time. For the sole purpose of monitoring all three country's text buffer. Now I can see effectively in country chat where missions are being launched from, whom is in the missions, where they are going and what they are taking.

On top of that information I would otherwise not have access too, I now can see where EVERY CV is located at on the map and if my rank is high enough I can take control of CVs' and guide them into traps being set with the information I gathered from having 3 accounts.

I can spread MISSINFORMATION among the country in which I wish to disrupt for the tactical advantage of causing fighting within the country to dismantle any would be uprising in order to more effectively place myself in postion for killing on my main account. (IE causing arguments on a specific country chat just to disrupt that country's effective fighting)

I have a shade account and I never spy because for most I fly the same country. It's just another style of flying and a different plane set. I have learned a lot since. :airplane:

My post was an effective solution .... to ending perk-farming (by any means) once and for all.

Good Grief.

Do you honestly think a business operating in a very capitalistic country is going to turn down paying customers just because a few people have abused their ability to operate more than 1 computer at a time. 

It's not like you have to be a millionaire to buy 2 or 3 accounts and own 2 computers.  Any Thousandaire could easily afford it, and probably a lot of Hundredaires too.

Delete their perks for the 1st violation.

Delete their accounts and a add a complimentary two week lockout from the game for the second violation.

BanHammer for strike three.

I would much rather have players opening ten accounts and wasting a lot of time to obtain perks then to have the 'game is free, pay for stuff' paradigm which is too much like the real world for me.
