Hello all,

I'd like to start off by stating the purpose of this thread is due to my concerns with Piracy, and the allowance of multi accounts (IP Sharing) but no clarification beyond stating that 'direct interaction' is not allowed. My primary goal here is to understand what is and isn't allowed here, and the extent in-which these rule can and actually are enforced.

On my server I've noticed players within my alliance who maintain several accounts on their islands or nearly by for two primary purposes. Pirate point farming, and donating to island resources. To me I would see using multiple accounts as direct interaction when farming them for piracy points. I'm seeing it happen on such an extreme level there is no competitiveness on the server and seemingly nothing happening to the people doing said farming, one member in my alliance has about 5 or 6 islands full of accounts. I've seen no in-game punishments for this behavior that has been on going for at least a month. I'm in this this alliance so I haven't been impacted however anyone who is not simply cannot compete on any level without also doing what in my mind would be against game rules. Due to this I will be leaving the alliance as I cannot be apart of something I do not support, I feel this is important to mention.

I'm aware that it can be hard to prove these things with IP tracking, however they have sent in-game inter-alliance messages about alliance members raiding other members farms and removed them from the alliance for such actions and have gone on to group pillage and blockade them for these actions. After these events occurring it has become very obvious what is going on here, and it is obvious this alliance leadership is not only alright with this behavior but is encouraging and taking part in it.

I'd love for feedback and discussion around this, maybe I am mistaken after all but it just doesn't seem right or fair for other players on the server.

Thanks,

Nixby
