i suspect id 56015 to be a multi, a planet of mine was stolen and shortly afterwards this person no longer has the planet. the person had nowhere near enough covert to spy on me, and although this is not proof it is still cause for investigation.

1. One does not always spy before stealing a planet, usually I don't either, if I see one on someone I could take I take a chance.
2. Might be 2 people working together to steal planets; i.e. A steals your planet, then A calls B, B steals the planet from A to get it safe from you
There's quite a bunch of people working together since the planet thing appeared, people solely playing to steal planets, it might be a problem but certainly not a multi

Well maybe not, since one can think to the the A & B planet stealing thing all by itself..

still, it falls under the "that they are effectively one account" clause.

How so.. Two people cooperating isn't under that clause.. they would be two hypothetical persons, two distinct people on two distinct accounts..

yes 2 accounts under 2 different people is not a mutli account situation, but when you have 1 person with 1 account controling the account of another person through that person, where that person effectively is only a control panel for the account, it basically is a multi.

Nope.. not if you ask me at least.. I mean, if I'd not want to play the game, I'd register & try to help a friend i.e by becoming his officier, building UP every so often things like that, it wouldn't be a multi..
The basic definition of a multi is "accounts that break the "one account per player" rule [the one displayed when you register]", having someone else operate an account to help you doesn't break that rule..

still this issue has to be addressed the fact that one can create an account build nothin but fleets that can NEVER!! be touched is somethin that must be modified make the gliders able to be sabbed or massed or something cause im sure this practice of having a multi just for this prpose of stealing planets and avoid the ramifications goes on even as we speak and its something that must be changed
