Yeap - Exactly why i have two accounts. Come to think of it, my level 35 alt account is getting sluggishly boring, guess i should just give that one away and start a new one. I find the beginning of VC quite fun.
I have to say that people are abusing the whole 1 FB 1 kix account as is and have used them to attack in the same sector i've seen one guy with no less then 4 accounts in one sector and i ticketed this as he was using them to attack the same players and defend his base with spam fleets.
I've also seen players using alts to port mains in which is interaction so yeah its becoming a problem, with medal events i'm sure people have used alts to get easy medals too.
I have one Kix and one FB account i play vega with they are in different sectors and have never interacted i don't have them friended so they can't even relocate to each other and that is how it should be.
Alts are the main reason I will never coin in this game some people will have the attitude that they should make as many alts as they can and use them them rather then coining and until this type of abuse can be stamped out of Vega i see no point in throwing money at it just to have some guy with 10 alts surpass my main account.
Exterminate!
They could also auto delete bases not logged into for 30+ days..
Exterminate!
Hey everyone. We are aware of the issue surrounding multiple accounts and I know for a fact that Customer Support is working hard to resolve this issue. However, with that being said in order for us to proactively work on this we need to have concise reports on the multiple account. Images of two accounts in one sector is a great help as having your alt account in the same sector as your main is not allowed. Furthermore the more information you can provide on the accounts in question the better. We have several measures in place to help with this, but the best help is reports from players.
Personally i do not mind 1 ALT when it is used as away to start over in the game and being completely separate from the main account. However more and more i am seeing people have 2 3 4 or more alts seeded in different sectors and using them as away to jump back and forth. There are others that use alts to scout bases for there main account and more recently there was a player in 500 using an alt to scout player fleets so see what was in them and then sending out a fleet from his main account specifically to counter the ships in the fleet he scouted. Then there is the alts that created to troll the chat and i know there is a mute button but that's not the point.
See Starting in BYM then into BP, alts were always taboo, but common. VC has become very open for alts due to the 1 account per platform thing. I play BYM (log in and collect play lol), BP, WC, and VC. I don't have time for alts lol. If ppl want to spend that time to have 1 fine. But as long as those alts are not used to aid the main or the other way around. I do see alot of ppl that have alts by making a false e-mail. Hell even a few that have a few lol. It will get to the point like in BP, where they started to just ban any alt even if it was another person playn. Caused alot of trouble. But due to the ppl that abuse the games to play cheap. Those who didn't do anything wrong payed the price too.
You risk being called a wuss if you have an alt. It speaks to me as saying: I cannot cope with all these guys so I must compensate for my inadequacies by having more accounts. I farm vegas very badly. I am antisocial and would just die if I ask for help. I do not mind bending rules of TOS so long as it goes my way, but when it does not, I scream bloody murder.
Sorry guys, if the TUTU fits wear it proudly when everybody sees you have an alt.
Only real men and women play 1 account. And if you are somehow neither man nor woman, more power to you. Yargh!
On a lighter note, My all time favorite tactic that every alt loves to do is spam fleet a base so their main can get in. That may very well be the nail in the coffin for the alt debate. I will never do that ever. I like to just stroll in with my fleet and hope I hit something. I win or fail makes no difference, but some shmucks take it so seriously. I call it going "Wrath of Khan". It is a game folks. Why so serioussssss.?
Oh yeah, I did notice that once you get to about level 39-ish, you have no one to hit. I like the fact that if you get too ambitious and build too fast you are stuck up there and cannot hit below. So I see why big players get an alt, they miss the FVF and base attacks. This may be a part of the game that Kix will have to fix, but there will be no easy solution. So my sympathies to big players out there, but I am still calling you a wuss if I catch you with an alt. LOL
why is this rule change explain kixeye
@Quinten1921 Which rule change are you referring too?
If you read CM's Skeedorrs comment above it says your alt is not allowed in the same sector as you main. Meaning you can have one alt account and one main account but they cant be located in the exact sector. Thats what I got out of it.
exact same sector*
i have my main. But my fiance plays my alt full time now. What about situations like that? Same planet. We are on at the same time sometimes of different laptops. We dont farm each other ect....
There are obviously going to be exceptions to everything, but if you stay within the parameters of the original rules, and not being a douche bag, I am sure you will be fine. In your case Wreck, you should just say that the "Alt" is simply your Wife's account and be done with it.
Alt Responsibly!

Also it well said in TOS 1 account facebook 1 account kixeyes not more.
.u only ask user ID anyway.
don't say it should be a picture because obviously u can scan a database with numbers but
not with pictures or change the repport form anyway ;
after repport the guy never gone /reloc ...
3 times repport then gave up of course
I had an alt once, then I stopped playing it because I needed to upgrade something, and I have never touched that account again... Rest in Peace CaptainAardvark.
