    How can you tell a player has more than one account?

    I still don't know what that means, where do you see the five accounts on a player?  How do you tell by looking at their account?

    You can have more than one account on here BUT they have to be on separate servers.   I've had one on the UK, US and International servers for years now.

    GG considers it cheating to have one person with more than one farm on the same team.

    Yea well... good luck tracking that down.   It's been done many times.

    I do know that sometimes you can have family members with their own accounts, and on the same servers.  I wouldn't consider that cheating, even if they are on the same team.  But, if someone truly has more than one account on the same server and are using them on the same team then yes, I do believe that would be cheating.  I don't see how that could be tracked down either.

    they mean more then likely if there is a bumblebee then a bumblebee2 and a bumblebee3 all in the same coop they are more then likely created by the same person and i totally made that name up so if it is someone i am sorry i saw someone like that last night each account was level 6 but it was a very inappropriate name

    I think I know which level 6 player... he sent me an offensive spam message the other day. I reported it to support.

    I and another coop member got the same offensive message also, mine was from one account, hers was from another, I looked to see who it was, and yes they have 5 accounts, all level 6. I figured it is a teen player or some old perv with nothing else to do but harass other players.

    yes that would be the way, sadly support couldn't care less even tho it should be their primary task to protect their clients against fraud

    I do believe the player MRG1 (and others) are referring to (as well as all his/her accounts) were banned by Support, shortly after they received the reports from players about it :)

    Good to hear. He (and I am pretty sure it's he not she because of the User name) still appears in the rankings though. Even the user name is offensive.

    Lester's Secret Stash:  How do you activate it?  I am currently at level 3, and still don't get it.
  • garybaldy (GB1)garybaldy (GB1) GB1 Posts: 502
    Lester's Stash saves you on one product in an organic market or fish market contract . When you go to the fill contract screen , you will see a circle under the slider for each product . Click one, it will go green and the required amount will drop . At level 3, he saves 3% of the requirement .

    Thank you for pointing that out, @MRG1 (US1).  I did not consider that but am now trying to find out what might be done about it.

    Every device has it's own unique IP address.   Someone with multiple accounts would likely be playing on the same computer.  Be easy to spot by admins.  Even if using the same router, the IP numbers would be very close. 

    I know when I first signed on, you had to ask support to allow family members to play.   Seems they are much less vigilant about such things now.  Until someone reports it to them.
  • Probably depends on whether  or not they are gold users lol

    Sure they could be doing it all on one computer, or they are die hards, and have a whole room of computers and they move from one to the other, lol.
  • Artmaker (GB1)Artmaker (GB1) GB1 Posts: 1,495
    Pretty sure even a room full of computers would be all connected to one internet connection, one router, all with very similar IP addresses.   It would be something admins could catch if they look.
    Besides, someone would REALLY have to have no life what so ever to do that just for this game. 

    (that being said, I play on another game and there is one guy, a real jerk no less, who actually has some 50 accounts all logged in just to fill and shut out one room.   None of his aliases play.  Scores never change.  Just fills up a room so no one else can get in.   Really stupid since there are dozens more rooms.  But no life there at all.  Real definition of playing with yourself.  lol.)
