OK, I'm bored...
Like I always say... if the players named here are innocent of multi-ing or cheating and if they happen to read my post, please forgive me, it's just my natural lack of trust.

Suspects: Danoobanator (ID 27136), Da_noob_anator (ID 27138), danoob_anator (ID 27139)
Reasons: rather obvious
Collaterals: none

Keep this thread open if you wish, I might be back with some more ( I have a keen eye for other people's stupidity :) ).

There you go, a whole list of brand new suspects:

Suspects: getplanet series (ID 1906964 - 1918837?), GetPlanetWanaBe series (ID 1919498 - 1919814?) (33 users so far)
Reasons: fairly obvious
Collaterals: unknown

Edit: adding these here so I don't triple-post:
Suspects: IDs 1914194, 1914197, 1914198, 1914200, 1914201, 1914202, 1914204, 1914205, 1914206, 1914207, 1914208 (these are the only ones I could find)
Reasons: all have wacky Romanian names :-D ... ok, the IDs made them look suspicious
Collaterals: probably none

First lot:
Suspects: Sith apprentice 1 (ID 69157), Sith apprentice 2 (ID 69146), Sith apprentice 3 (ID 70036)

Suspects: Dan Jack (ID 51527), Dan Jack2 (ID 53100), Dan Jack3 (ID 53393), Dan Jack4 (ID 53394)
Reasons: names, IDs, same alliance
Collaterals: the alliance leader, Jesusshockwave (ID 1912113) - probably not involved

And a couple to check up on, just to make sure:
Suspects: I (ID 19187), Myself (ID 19189)

You're on a roll. Congrats. I'll leave this open for you.

A few more cases, most are probably inactive for a long time, but I'm posting them all the same.

1. Not very sure about this one, but better checked out:
Suspects: Foxtrot_095 (ID 1917318), Prometheus_095 (ID 1919995), Maelstrom_095 (ID 1919996)
Reasons: similar names, fairly new IDs
Collaterals: one other member of the same alliance, tazystar2000 (ID 1919478)

2. {also read Note below} All three are fairly new (but apparently inactive) accounts, first one's member of an inexistent alliance:
Suspects: MALP (ID 1915892), MALP1 (ID 1918385), MALP2 (ID 1918386)
Reasons: names, IDs, deleted alliance (?)
Collaterals: none found

3. Probably the usual inactive and unimaginative multi:
Suspects: b1gr3d (ID 1915879), b1gr3d3 (ID 1916176)
Reasons: nothing more than hits the eye... hits it quite hard
Collaterals: none

4. Could be just friends using similar names... but, since when do I buy that...
Suspects: betovizuet (ID 1909785), DRbetovizuet (ID 1913793)
Reasons: obviously, their names; new IDs (there seem to be more and more newbie multis)
Collaterals: no commander(s)/officers/alliance(s)

5. Can't believe there are so many trying it...
Suspects: berbatov (ID 103653), berbatov2 (ID 1913885)
Reasons: acute lack of imagination on their behalf
Collaterals: none

6. Adding one more, because of its considerable age:
Suspects: kammo|PyRo (ID 17447), kammo_pyro (ID 17448)
Reasons: the names are a reason; consecutive IDs make it all the more probable
Collaterals: none

Note
I'll probably be back next week, with a more complicated (for me) issue I like to call 'The Hungarian plot' (no offense whatsoever intended to [AG]s, members of Hungarian Command or other veteran players born in Hungary) concerning a massive number of inactive accounts in the 60k+ area, unless it is solved by adminMark due to some people's obvious stupidity (see 2. and maybe others on the list as well) - in which case, I would appreciate knowing it so I can take some credit :-D

We, [AG]s or most of the [AG]s registered almost the same time. You can check our ids.. :) We had an alliance, Abydos Gate, and the prefix stayed.. Most of us dont play anymore, they are inactive accounts. We have only one multi (nissan). I told him the rule around a month ago, when he wanted to join to the Hungarian Alliance with all his accounts, and he promised he will abandon or delete or dont know his other accounts. I think there wasnt any serious cooperation between his accounts. (all his accounts are below 2M, and he registered 2 years ago :P) If admin want to interact into the process, I just want to say that he understood the rule, and he wants only keep the account that is in the Hungarian Command. If he doesnt delete the others soon then admin should help him though. ;)

I didn't imply you or any of the other veteran, active players :) The accounts I've been looking at are not related to [AG] or Hungarian Command as far as I can tell, but many of them have Hungarian names, are around the same ranks (all inactive) and fairly new IDs. This kinda made me suspicious. I only mentioned the [AG]'s and the others so nobody takes me for a racist/xenophobe/whatever :)

P.S. I know what [AG] stands for - nice site, got it among my bookmarks :D

[off]lol, ok. np. I know we recruited some members from Hungary in the last months. The latest ids simply not started playing seriously. We are watching them, and kicking the most inactive players from Academy. But this is very OFF now. Sorry, I just answered.
Oh, an yeah.. inactives are all around. Not just some of us.[/off]

I know the most veteran [AG] players convinced the community about their clean gameplay. And I know your 2nd point isnt about us, just some parts of the note. I'm sorry, if I overreacted. :D Just I'm curious, who will be in the 'The Hungarian Plot'.. :) I'm really waiting your results about us, because it's not easy to know everyone if you get suddenly 50-60 new players.. ;)

That could be it, then - some people just jump in with no regard to what experienced players tell them; and none of these was from the Academy or the Command. Any more details, you can always ask through PM - or check for yourself around 65k, since you're the most qualified to find the ones you've recruited; let's keep this clean now, shall we? I plan on posting until I can find no more multis in Normal Reality ;)
