If mulit accounting is against the rules....Then why can some people come into the forum and announce they have three names under the same server without them being banned... I have a screen shot and i will complain to the end of my days here at GGS. I play by the rules, no matter how much money someone spends, a rule is a rule!!!!!

I have a screen shot saved for any ggs employee who would like to see this. And if they aren't removed i hope everyone else here understands that GGS is only here for money NOT anything else. We should be all treated fairly no matter what kind of money we add to the game. (WHICH I PAY TOO)

Im highly annoyed this person can sit and laugh in my face as if he already knows he will not be removed! IS this an employee, if not, they need to be banned just like the rest of us would. if it is an employee the rules should be the same for you as we have to play by the rules as well..


If you want to be treated fairly, I suggest you comment below so GGS knows we will not stand for this. We are playing by the rules and everyone else should as well. Not rub it in our face.

As for the names mentioned they may not be this persons other accounts...But obviously they have more... And they can't win by playing right. Maybe thats why they put out the number one players name, IDK...I just know that the mods and ggs play favorites. Its a pitty when i put a bunch of money into this game.

    I agree. Good job on calling them out. If they put the rules into place they should be followed. There are plenty of crappy games on the internet for people to go play elsewhere and cheat to their hearts content.

    I hope that this arrogant individual gets himself banned, because if not, then the contract we all have agreed to is meaningless.

    Geogur there is a thread opened about multi accounting in the suggestions part of the forum which is now locked. I feel this person thinks no matter what they will get away with it because they have more gold then brains. But if we all speak up our voices will be heard. One rule for all, not for some.

    Farmerjohn i completely agree

    I saw this thread...I think its unbelievable. I know those accounts are protected too by emailing support and saying they are family when they are not. Its ridiculous when we spend so much money time and effort trying to reach rank, buy décor, building our farms and these guys sit here top of the ranks exactly laughing at us. When we are playing by the rules. They are not....GGS needs to do something about it!

    Please do not make it a personal vendetta against a player. Please talk in general instead of pointing out were to look. If it remains personal i must close this thread.

    Bweatherholt, you are right in reporting this person. He/she should be playing by the same rules as everyone else. If GGS is not going to enforce their own rules, then why even have rules?

    Sorry Pinjo...Its not necessarily personal. I just think a rule should be a rule for everyone.

    And a rule should be enforced equally regardless of how much money that person contributes.

    I know that no one asked my opinion, but i think this is not a "vendetta", this is about rules, and rules should be same for all of us.

    I agree Dara, but i also don't want this thread to be closed because i think we should all be treated equally! I know if i say more it will be removed because my money is obviously the lesser of the two. But i do think everyone should know that ppl get on the forums announce they cheat and get away with it still.. If that is the case i should be able to have 500 accounts sitting idle so i can get that gift ggs send then add it to my co op. or add researchers when we don't have ppl to fill the spots. Go back and forth from each name and have production farms for each project. Right? Shouldn't I be able to do this as well if others can... Not any one specific person but if other people can, i should be able to as well.

    Maybe i'm wrong, but I think what are the reason to this thread is because a person in another thread write that he have 3 accounts on the same server, and he named the 2 other plyers.
    If that's the reason to this thread... Have anybody else than me have that thinking, that person absolutly nothing have to do with those two account he named also was owned by him, and he only tells a lie in the hope to make a lot of noise?

    Only GGS can find out about these 3 accounts have anything to do which each other or not.

    This is in fact a thread about rules... and how they should be followed and applied to everyone. Not pick and decide who should get banned and who shouldn't.

    Geogur, Kudos to you for sticking to the rules and implementing them in your co op. My co o p operates the same. You will be told to contact ggs to remove the other accounts or you will be removed from our co op.

    Im definitely not trying to point one person out... I think this is a rule that we should have to go by... Since it is a rule.

    Bweatherholt, I completely agree with the point you are making. I don't know if every comment or every thread in this forum gets read by staff, though. There don't seem to be a lot of staff here. Has the thread in question been reported to them?

    As you know, they are still looking for moderators and have been for some time. If someone is concerned about things not being dealt with and wants that to change, applying to be a moderator might give that person a chance to help make a difference.

    Well i was told it was reported and i myself reported it with a screen shot...

    Although my point here is that everyone needs to be punished equally for breaking the rules. Some people don't pay in a bunch of money so they get banned. Others pay in more so they don't? In my opinion that is completely wrong. If GGS is working this way, i want no part of this game.

    Obviously this person has lied to support and they have chosen to believe him or her. I suspect that even in the face of evidence they will continue to lie and be believed, likely because they buy so much gold.

    I used to defend GGS when other called them shady and money-grabbing but its getting very difficult to not see the truth. Money talks in this game and more money talks louder.

    Situations like this make me ill and the fact that the only response so far from anyone "official" is a mod telling us to "not make it a vendetta" is even worse. Blindly enforcing the rules is why this situation and all the negativity it brings forth exists in the first place.

    I'm sure this comment will be removed shortly but hopefully it makes some of you feel a bit better knowing there are others who are equally as fed up as you are.

    EDIT: Having read that closed thread I just want to point out that I think the person in question was actually joking (poorly) about those accounts being his/hers. Not that it means they don't have multiple accounts but I wouldn't want to see 2 innocent payers dragged into his/her drama. Doesn't change the fact that multi-accounting is rampant as well.

    I don't even know if im ALLOWED to talk about that thread. I sent an email about how it wasn't a personal attack that it was reference like anyone else does and i have not got a return email... So i sent you an email instead.

    GGS knows just as well as many of us do ...this is the same person

    I believe the moderator was in error calling this a "vendetta" when at no point do I recall the offending player being named, and the subject has clearly been about the rules and not the individual player. Multi-accounting is against the rules of the game and that point has been well covered above.

    Another point that might be made is that multi-accounting is not a good strategy for getting ahead. My former co-op used (and still uses) a number of what I called "zombie farms" -- extra farms, inherited from departed players or extra accounts started by players themselves. Passwords would be passed around so that co-op members. I was not able to stop this practice when I became co-op leader, and I eventually left. The focus on farming multiple accounts drained time and energy but I somehow could not convince the older players of this. So I left and I'm now part of a co-op that is high in the rankings and moving up, without a single "zombie farm."

    When something is both against the rules and counter-productive, I really have to wonder why people are doing it.

    And how these people find the time to multi-account is beyond me! I started another farm on the WWW server and I find that I simply do not have the time to spend on it and my regular US farm. Gold I suppose.

    An official response into this matter would be nice....

We could always post an our own face book pages that good game studios is shady shenanigans and join removed !!! Good game won't care though cause many,many thousands will stay & new players will play and they make their millions with or without us. Yes he should get the boot but I doubt any one will do it.

    I must tell you something. It's hard to tell correct, when english is not my language, hope you understand the point.

    I'm in great co'op, and i'v heard the "oldest" members telling thing about formal members. There was 2 persons who had 2 accounts both. They where pretending they are different persons, i mean like 4 persons. Co'op was good and levelling up fast, because many of them are using gold. But those 2 persons tried to make argue between other members. They told thong that wasn't true. Many of members left, even leader. Some of them came back after 2 persons said they where sorry. Leader came back and had her own place back. And those 2 started all over again. It was complicated situation, as there where so many miss understandings between members. Finally leader kicked both of them out (all 4 farms). Other created 3. farm and got in co'op again. Someone noticed that it was a same person when she started to talk about bullshit (sorry) again. She was kicked out again. Now those 2 has their own co'op, none of them is the founder(?).
    I don't want to tell names, it is not my business
    But what i'm trying to tell, is that some people are creating multi accounts just cous they want to make others feel bad.

    Our Co-Op had one of these players a while back. She acted like she was a novice questioning particular purchases for her farm, to gold or not to gold, and upgrades etc. and we all gave advice and help to her because we were wanting her to do her very best and gain some headway with her "little" farm!
    To my utter surprise she sends me PM telling me that this was her second farm and that she had another farm with another co-op... like a top 100 co-op and she herself was a level 92 at that time.
    I brought the info to the chat and we discussed as a co-op and told her she was not welcome in our group and that she needed to remove herself or get booted as she was not playing by the rules. She could not understand why we would do that after all she came clean... REALLY!!??? We all felt she played for fools and abused the system....but she left our co-op and who knows what has become of her.. she probably is one of the players still scamming the game for god know what reason... once a cheat always a cheat... rules mean nothing to these kind of people just be glad you are rid of him/her!

    Bweartherholt, I completly agree with you. I think that GGS should enforce there rule of no multi-accounting better, because it just isn't fair to the rest of us.
    It would be great if GGS would take some action on this, but the real questions is, do they want to?

    I do hope this thread gets a respond from a CM, but I will point this out, though you probably already know, the CM's won't be back on until the morning, as they are in Germany and it is night time there right now.
