Multiple accounts

Post by Evil Semp »

What is the offical Concuer Club definiton of Multi Accounts?

Can two accounts (husband and wife, brother and sister) be from the same household if they are not premium members?

This is obvious. Multi accounts means 1 person who intentionally has more than 1 account so that he can play more games without buying premium or so he can use his multis to cheat and gain points.

Iceman it is not obvious otherwise I would not have asked the question.

Is your response the offical Conquer Club? Can you answer the second part of my questions?

Yes, couples and multiple people may play from the same household. Read my definition again. Its fine as long as one person doesnt have more than 1 account.

Edit: sometimes it is hard to tell if it is one person or not, but that is for the mods to decide.

is there any way to prove that you are two seperate people if you are on the same computer for a couple turns. like i said, my friends got busted for no reason other than that they were on the same computer and i'm kinda mad.

Possibly, you could webcam with one of the mods maybe. I havent heard of anyone doing this yet, but it might work.

The best way to keep 2 accounts with the same IP address is.....
BUY PREMIUM!! :D

A friend of mine and his wife have been banned as being multi accounts. A copy is below.

Scarus can verfiy who these two are. I also can give you a list of CC members who will verify who they are.

The letter follows. Can you please check this out.

Hello holly2275ca and mortalhorton,

Your activity on Conquer Club has aroused suspicion and triggered an
investigation by a staff member. It has been determined that the above are most
likely duplicate accounts, in violation of Rule #1 of Conquer Club (i.e. no
multiple accounts).

Multiple accounts pose a big problem for multiplayer games -- duplicate accounts
are usually created to get around the maximum number of simultaneous games
limit, or to dominate a game with multiple accounts. It is not only annoying to
other players, but the excessive use of server resources is unfair to everyone.

Comparing the billing information is the only reliable way to verify uniqueness
of an account. It also greatly reduces the risk of someone creating several
accounts for themselves.

If you have Free Membership:
We've limited your ability to play new games and post to the forum. The only way
to remove this limitation is to upgrade to Premium Membership. Our Premium
Membership fee shouldn't be too much for something you can enjoy every day.
Plus, you'll be supporting the development of new features and continuous
improvements to the website.

If you have Premium Membership:
We've blocked you from playing games with the members mentioned above. If you
believe you have been wrongly accused in this case, please contact us and this
block may be removed if those members have distinct billing information.

Regards,
The Conquer Club

There doesn't need to be an accusation. We routinely scan for multiple accounts and ban the offenders.

AS for the billing info, have your friends contact CC and ask that themselves.

patience ... it'll get looked at in due time. The people who take care of that have full time jobs and lives outside of CC and will often take awhile to respond.

As I said at the beginning of this thread, it is up to the mods to decide whether it is one person on 2 accounts. This site has rules, and if you do not follow them you deserve to be banned. There are plenty of risk sites that dont even check for multis, so if you get banned here just go play there.

Since I don't handle the multi-busting, I can't comment on billing info or how same household players are distinguished. Like I said, wait until Lack, Twill or Andy can look into it and then you'll have your answers. And yes, they're all busy people, which is why it takes 3 of them to do it! Rest assured we don't want to discourage family from playing together. That's all I can really comment on.

Iceman

Maybe if you are accused wrongly you would just go play elsewhere? I don't think you would. I know I would defend myself as you probably would, and I will defend my friends. Like I said in a previous post there is a moderator here who can verify that they are seperate people. So SCARUS please step forward and clear this up.

Wicked

I do know that the people who run this have outside lives and jobs, I never mentioned that they didn't. I also know they are doing a hell of a job.

Maybe rather than branding Mort and Holly as multi's they could have been given a chance to defend themselves first.
