Yet I've already said it doesn't affect me and that I see negligible impacts on a grand scale. So I guess your point is to simply just assert how obvious your point is and insulting it is that I ask for more clarification?

Alrighty.

They are "the cause"?

Are you talking about the ddos attacks? ...maybe you don't understand ddos. That's not related. Truly.

Neither can you "manipulate" anything with a ddos. It's just like spraying a dog with a fire hose. It doesn't do anything to the dog's bank account or his multiple gaming accounts or the karma in his forum posts. He's just a really slow, wet dog.

...hey. That's a nice analogy right there. Someone pat me on the back!

(Thanks Kayla!)

Nope, you KNOW that it affects gameplay negatively, yet you ask me how it affects me personally, in order to deflect the issue at hand... ;)

All good though, remember that I wasn't the problem to begin with lol

One thing I see is the more multis there are means there are more cans, more stock benefit blocks, more bank accounts, along with more employees.

Removing multi's will mean can prices go up, bb items go up, interest rate goes up, company pay scale becomes more screwed up [for the lazy directors who overpay], Points go up [fewer 'people' flying around], slutting, and reviving prices go up.

My opinion of this? Ban the multi's.

There have always been a lot of cheaters playing this game. It has been one of my things to keep track of them. A lot of them do get caught and disposed of eventually but some dont unfortunately.

Multis have always been a problem, and they likely always will be. I'm not sure what the point of saying "When will Ched address multis" as if he hasn't already. Multis are banned whenever they're found, and multihunters lightens the load as best as it can. The OP makes it sound like you think Ched doesn't care about multis, and doesn't do anything about them? There are hundreds of thousands of Torn accounts, and more of them are made every day. What exactly are you expecting? For Ched to wave a magic wand and all the multis just disappear? The problem isn't as easy to fix as you seem to think it is.

You're significantly misunderstanding the way that multihunter identifies accounts *and* the method of banning the admins use to mitigate the impact of these accounts on the game as a whole.

Without going into too much detail:

1)   Admin was likely already aware of this multi operator's actions.

2)  There is simply no reason to go about banning multi accounts as soon as they're noticed.  If the multi has very little or no interaction with the rest of the populace, then they're only "prepping" for something, and it's best to waste as much of the operator's effort as possible, for a couple reasons:

     a)  To help discourage the operator's return to Torn(because it isn't a cost effective platform).

     b)  To help catch more accounts at once.

     c)  To prevent the operator from identifying what actions are detectable and what aren't, and what the multi-hunter looks for(i.e. multihunter protecting itself from defeat).

So, most of your points about being harsher, faster, etc, will fall on deaf ears.  Calm down.  Go enjoy the game.  Multihunter is working *very* well.

GET EM Ferals!!!!  Maybe we can get Morgan Freeman to post his opinion on this matter too (it is TRUE he plays Torn he once logged in from my house when he was over for dinner).... >:]

So... we are still waiting to see the slightest move on any of these guys.... 
the same as the decisive action you have taken on the clearest of multis on MMCP - nothing..

Ched - your handling of these multis is a joke...

and instead of being funny it makes you look like the joke...
Mr high and mighty admin cant evict the few clear multi players because they are too sneaky for him...

Everyone says that there are too many in the game... everyone has all the justifications about how many multis are on and that im complaining that individuals are left...

NO... theres 10 in one hit... given to you and they are damn clear... and you still are too useless to act on them...
Im giving you a chunk that makes it easier to deal with.. and Ched YOU are being useless..
