Can we finally just fed the main account of people caught cheating in regards to multis?
Allow the player to keep playing on the newest account, stripped bare, with donator status on it if their main/multi had it.
I just don't see how a thread like Confessions of a Cheater can exist in GD without some form of change, everyone knew it was a thing but at this point it's a bit ridiculous.
Unless there's a financial reason (because many of these multis also are donators in some way) I can't see a valid argument against feding the main account.

Ban IP's, Make them spend money on a VPN and they will go find another game to cheat on instead. They are here for RMT, nothing else. I dont see a positive benefit for Torn or Chedburns wallet by keeping them around. In all the years torn has been active, how many active people that were paying subscribers, spent real money on donator packs and played the game as intended, have quit?[image: i.imgur.com]
IPs are easily changeable without a VPN, even, and IP range bans often affect multiple innocent users. With today's technology it is possible to ban hardware IDs which is much more effective with no overlap. While it's possible to spoof hardware IDs, it's much more difficult. Are people going to buy new hard drives and video cards to play Torn? We'll find out, then they can get banned too.
I was under the impression that VMs use a set of HWIDs that can still be banned. No one should be playing Torn on a VM anyway, so banning them shouldn't be a big deal. Am I wrong?
breaking rules of the game needs to have serious consequences and not just token slaps on the wrist. If this carries on with no answer then I see no point in continuing my sub.
Frankly it's about time to fed the main for multis/rmt buyers. Or at least make the penalties significantly more severe than they are now. The known cheaters all have ways to get their money back that other honest players can't do because they've either got advantages from cheating that don't go away or they just continue to cheat because they don't fear the penalties.

All multi accounts should be permanently banned. Torn should operate a zero tolerance policy.
The punishments currently in place are laughable, therefore, there are no real consequences for having a multi.
Ched, why are you facilitating the use of multi accounts in Torn?!
R+ current rules encourage cheating. Oh you multi? ok we take back the money we know you cheated with (and nothing more) and you get a vacation. Thats basically no penalty at all especially considering its likely they earned more than what is actually found as ill gotten gains.
Should have ppl going undercover real time contact with staff
Play poker, texting the RMT seller, have staff in chat able to verify the info before the "buyer" could know they others hand. Have staff watching those games where undercover players are.
Have staff create new accounts to play just for multimar sting operations.
This would make sellers far more weary of who they sell to, create a paranoia to eat away at them.
