HippyFool - 66478

[Colton]

I think we've went a tad off topic here.. o_O

[HippyFool]

Or we could equally you're infact killing 2 servers! last time I played Quantum you were pouring as much $$ a week into it as possible, giving all those not spending the $ fair chance.

How is donating to Quantum killing the server?

Anyway, as Colton said, it is off topic.

I will now only respond to questions related to this topic.

With all honestly, you probly would have gotten much less attention over this if you didnt advertise "Selling 200T naq and buying 500m uu". That makes anyone suspicious, because there are resource limits for units. Why not advertise as selling 100T naq and buying 100m uu. That would not limit you in anyway, and wouldnt make anyone suspicious because those quantities are believable by the majority.

How is anything unbelievable when real $$ is involved?

I advertised exactly how much i needed at the time...

Well, technically I guess it can be considered "believable". Just that no one else deals with resource quantities anywhere near yours. I think your missing the point of my comment. You don't have to advertise big quantities to sell big quantities.

[HippyFool]

ok.

Again getting off topic...

Is an admin actually gonna look at this? or am i stuck in limbo... I dont wanna go and buy another 500m UU if i am just gonna be banned with it all on my account..

Some confirmation would be nice

[ I got my GF to use the account while i worked out what to do with it. The resources were sent to me (hippyfool - 66478).

My understanding of the rules surrounding multi accounts is that having a second account that exists purely to donate resources to another is multi'ing, regardless of who controls the account.

However that is just what I have heard third hand. It is somewhat of a grey area so confirmation would be nice.

In the conversation above between Lord Blackhole and HippyFool.... HippyFool says that Fire Fly was his only RL friend. The Fire Fly account was id=35301. In this thread viewtopic.php?f=162&t=146176 That very account 35301 is being sold, and appears to have been sold on Jul 9th 2009. That account I believe was being sold by HippyFool. But I believe the now new owner is legitimate.

The account 35301 has indeed been sold. I can vouch for the new owner, he is my CO. I was on MSN with him when he first logged into it, and assisted him with transferring resources from his old account. His old account is now my account.

Yes that is not under question here as I already said that about 35301.

[~[ Greased Gerbil ]~]

Oops, my bad.

There's a reply about half way down page one that threw me off. I thought it implied that 35301 might be a "fake girlfriend".

The account did not exist purely to donate resources to me. I bought the account, and therefor the resources. I took the resources, she took the account.

ive seen a ton of players do this in my time playing the game as long as the resources are sent once and then the two accounts go there seperate ways its no different then buying resources from another player. seems legit to me.

It's who's controlling the account that matters. My cousin (while we both played) regularly gave me turns that he didn't use. Is that multi'ing? Then again I did help him with homework so I guess it's a trade-off

Hehe now wouldnt that be funny if it was considered multi'ing and u got banned for it of course i doubt it is but you know... for the laughs n all

[MEZZANINE]

Well we've all heard the 'it's my GFs' / 'little Bothers' / 'Little sisters' account, with 'they dont use forums/MSN' used as an excuse for IP matches, maybe some are real.

On the other hand, we've all also known friends/family who stopped playing but keep there accounts ticking over giving stuff to friends, and there are many players ( I use the term loosely ) who 'play' just for $$$s

Near impossible to prove multi-ing in these cases unless you catch someone boasting about it.
