ive been thinking about the multies and the muiltie issue not just with sgw main but the other servers
my question: is it aginst the rules to pay a person to make an account and send you naq and UU?

i mean it would be really hard to track but they could be on the other side of the planet and stuff or person at work or school that you asked to do this for i mean trading is supost to be excess right?? hmm well idk atm.

Some people create accounts just to make cash by selling resources. If that's not against the rules, I suppose this isn't either. And I don't think much could be done against such things :?

Thing is though, they'd look like multies - accounts solely existing for the benefit of others....if it goes on for too long, I think the admins look into it....or they should do anyway....

Sadly nothing would ever be done against these accounts as people are always willing to buy resources with cash. So these accounts will always be created.

Also at the same time, in order for an account to make enough resources worth selling, they would need to "play" the game for a short amount of time.

Therefore you cannot ban an account that is playing the game, and being exposed to advertising.

Maybe accounts that aren't active for 6 months (but not on vac) have a % of their troops untrained each day?

This is not about inactive accounts - this is about active accounts in that they're actively logging on periodically and sending all their resources to one account.
Having a few friends register, help them get FSS and have them periodically send you all their ATs is not something new, I'm sure.

Yeah, I was speaking in reference to the post above me, should of quoted though lol

As far as the main topic of discussion, I don't think it should be allowed, but its something that would be extremely hard to enforce.

well if they can persuade people to join the game and play as their slave... then why not...we have officers in this game...we have friends in this game (maybe some even have rl friends in this game)
what is the difference...
if some dude says "i wanna pay this game" and always send his recources away well then how can any of us stop him...it's his choice to not play it seriously and it's hir merit he wants to help out a friend.

I'm playing a game with about 150 to 250 accounts with stats, but it has 4K "Active accounts"( means they are logged into every 30 days).

I feel your pain mate, but nothing really can be done as long as player to player trades are allowed, even when they were not allowed they simply banked and bought weaopns to later sell to allow their friends to farm them so policing the issue is nearly impossible.
