Strategus accountsharing/multiaccounting and it's consequences

[Meow]

It's hard to tell if some people deliberately ignore those rules or are unaware of them.
No matter which one it is they are breaking rules.

So let's make this abundantly clear:
Any kind of account sharing for Strategus is prohibited and will be punished.
Be aware that there will be a banhammer coming down on accounts that are used by anyone but their owner himself/herself to access Strategus.
This could go from anything between disabling that account for Strategus to account bans.

In case your clan leader or any clan member has your login data to use your account in Strategus - go change the password right now and make sure it never happens again.

Consider this the last warning we will give you about this ever.

Yes, that's right. A single person is not allowed to use multiple CD keys. That has also been announced.

[chadz]

A single person can not have several cd keys.
A single person cannot have the login data of other players to play strat for them.
Multiple persons in one household can have multiple cd keys, as long as they are kept seperate. Be assured that there are ways to figure out if one account is played by different people or one person.

Trying to cheat with those things will result in the ban of at least one and probably both keys. Depends if it was a honest mistake or deliberately trying to bypass the system.

[Phyrex]

Quite expected. Your "avarage footsoldier" in a clan has pretty much nothing to do on Strategus apart from recruiting soldiers, gold and dump them into the nearest friendly village. I guess they get bored of it and would rather have the higher ups manage it all.

A tough nut to crack, I have absolutely no idea of what sort of additions you could do to improve the overall fun for your "standard Strat player".

[DrKronic]

understood, but what the 22nd guy said is right, the average person in strategus is good for nothing, which is the annoyance, I mean considering unlike the real game an a single guy can't go roaming picking up troops, as in strat you'll just be kicked from every town, etc

In theory disallowing account sharing (generally) is a good. From one side.
But loose a battle or whole war only because account owner (who have to reinforce, or attack or whatever) suddenly ill, delayed at the work,
because car disrepairs... It's bad and unacceptable. From other side.

To solve this dilemma it would be nice to implement new feature like "an army".
Something like movable fiefs (which can be created by faction leaders).
Here is 2 possibilities : army controlled only by creator\owner or by any faction member with enough rank.
Benefits of this new entity - if army owner not appear when needed then faction leaders\officers can just change army owner to active player (in case if army controlled by owner\creator).
In case if army controlled by faction leader\officers - problem solved at all too.

Playing with the account of a friend(with his key)in the normal crpg(not strategus battles ofc)is allowed as always right?

[Bjarky]

this rule has been out for a long time now and no action has been taken?
i remember in last strat where we also had this problem, the rule was made to ensure this bs dosn't happen.
people and some small clans where banned for this, but this time nothing happens until today?
great...

Just replace current system of strategus gold & troops farming.
For example:
current system:
1)i bought 2 keys to use it in strat. & i will be banned or
2)i have 10 keys. each of them farms on strat. I use proxy and play with them in crpg sometime. & I will have never been banned.
new system:
Playing in crpg gives you troops or gold(depends on that you chose) in strat. If you are inactive you get nothing. So there is no point to buy a lot of keys.
Also to prevent 24\7 grind you may put some restrictions like farming only 6 hours per day max.

& yes. my english is horrible

I have 3 cd keys, one for me, 1 for Kasper, and 1 for R_kelly. kasper is my 19 yr old brother who lives with me and uses strat just like me, for DL. R_kelly is my 17 yr old brother and he plays at his home, but only uses strat when he visits me and kasper at my house.

is this a problem?

[kukufarikki]

what about having multiple cd keys but only using one for strategus (ie using another key for skip the fun characters and not waiting for a week)

[Kafein]

I have a cd-key I bought in the giant paradox steam pack. I used it to make a STF char. I guess this is not a problem.

Sounds fishy.

[PhantomZero]

Sounds fishy.

It sounded fishy to me too until all three of them said hello to me on teamspeak under the same user

This shit got abused terribly last strategus and it's getting abused this strategus.  You don't have to even try to look for it, it's in your face.  BIA_Ivan, BIA_ivani4_the_dark.  at least try to be discreet about it.  I doubt anything will be inforce, carry on.
