when the game was free and had poor anit-bot tools then it was far far to easy for one person to control many many planets, this is now not the case and though there would of course still be an impact of someone having multiple planets it would be far less than it used to be and possibly even a benefit due to the declining player base. For example say next round all the top alliances lost half their members - when playing as an alliance why does it matter if they replace thoose with "multi" planets or new recruits - the impact on the alliance wars will be the same. Therfore perhaps the best way to prevent undue advantage from allowing multiple planets is to remove the individual success part of the game and fully focus it on galaxies and alliances.

May i ask how there going to replace players within an alliance with other accounts of there own, if there is supposed to be hardcoded limits to prevent the accounts from interacting? would bugger up the alliance attacks/defence wouldnt you agree?

And as far as the examples you used there not relevent here. Since when do you have control over the lottery? You buy many ticks sure, but you dont do anything else other then await the outcome. With PA accounts you PLAY THEM meaning YOU make the outcome.


And for people who say 'wouldny this bring in more money?' Well, perhaps instead you could for example get your friends to play the game? There is around say 3k players, all get somone to play that makes 6k players. I would consider that more of an achivement then allowing others to buy more then one account.
