How do i report a multi? And do i have to be absolutely sure they are a multi? I am pretty sure but im not positive. Please answer soon. i have had to hold off 8 fleets in the last two days. and they keep coming at the exact same time. and they sign on and off at the same time. I'm pretty sure this constitutes a multi but i would like to have reassurance. |

Hi Noah.
The admins are pretty busy, so they can't look at every subject on this board. Best would be to send one of them a private message in here.
Report every hint you have that could proof you are facing a multi-account. The admins will hopefully look at those accounts and might delete them. |

bil is right, we have a lot to do already... it is hard to find the time to check in the database if someone is cheating or not...
the best would be if you sort it out between you players like it would work in a good chess game |

Hmmm... I also have a suspicion that there is a *farm* near my base, since the DSP shows something like 0/0/0/16... Still, I think that such farms must simply be destroyed before the *harvester* arrives, so therefore he's discouraged and stops using the other account... So, I attacked him yesterday, the one who was *harvesting* dissapeared from the farm afterwards, as he had been besieging the planet for 2 days or so... I think I'm going to repeat that routine - the *farm* hasn't been online for a day and 12 hours now... Maybe it never won't...
Anyway, I think that using multi-accounts to take out a single player soon should prove pointless to the multies - they don't gain any score by that... On the other hand, they might want a revenge on you, or maybe someone you know /and he/she knows you're playing in ST/ is playing a trick on you?

Well they attacked me in the beginning of the game and killed a lot of my stuff so i destroyed them and they needed three fleets at the same time to take me out but previously had been coming two at a time. |

Has example:
My ally and I is already conected the same time.
Ok. I say to his that I receive one cortesy "Visit" and don't want descortesy. For that My fleet and his fleet is reunite in My base that are close. Unsing MSN Messenger (One of the popular Messenger) to say to attack the same time.
Well, is attack the same time not are a MULTI or are one?
So, you need to check.

so do alot of us S. Sharks. IM or just a prearanged time for loging-in for an attack. Plus it could look bad since there are so many of us (we're mostly all from one ren faire guild, so alot of us got sucked into this game ). |

The problem with the multis is that is very dificult to find them, i found a multi account last round and gave all the clues to be very sure that he or she was making the game to dificult for a lot of us. And the big problem was that he or she was one of the winners, but i didn´t know how to help myself in that part.
The second problem is a lot of people like my family use the same computer for all the things, the dial up internet conection in my country is to expensive so we only have one computer to do a lot of things even to play this game, so i don´t know if we can be pointed like multi, that the admin will decide.
And the last thing is that a lot of alliance work like one person because the leader make and excellent job making all the things that is required to win without making any cheat, like my leader in the last round that he tell us to make which ships and what where our destination, so maybe a lot of people use the same ships and quantity.
So that is the problem, maybe the admins have to make like a firewall to Ips in order to put a stop tu multi people, but the problem will be that people like me and my cousins will be out of the game and that will be very unfair to us; so how can we share this excellent game with those cheaters?. Well i think only trusting in their conscience so they can delete their multi accounts, only we have to wait

@noah: Our leader just tells us where we're attacking and maybe a suggestion of the fleet type we'll need. but the fleet specifcs are our own. Though I can see a group makeing all the same type of fleet to pound one type of enemy fleet that they are going after, but thats rare. |

its not too difficult to find out multies. especially if they exagerate...
if they become a nuisance they have to be banned.
when i played the game, i knew all the top players by chat and messaging and noone of them was a cheater..
its a game to have fun and meet other ppl.
so lets have fun and meet other ppl.... |

the only thing is that it is too easy to explain and give excuses if you are accused a multi. |

Well, is the same composition (simectric) is a MULTI.
But my brother and me sometimes changing opinion about composition. Well, but is the same in number of ship and tipe, report it.

To find Multis is hard, but sometimes there is evidence enough. Well, it's always a hard decision, and no-one will be judged without trial.
But we can do something against farms. If there is a 0/0/0/16 planet, then that's not a newb |

i picked up the same thing but then you have to realize that a fleet of motherships is a powerful defense. |
