Our dead hopes and dreams

I ask forum members to put in this topic their suggestions for a new Salem world will come after global wipe. Let's hope devs will care.

1. No more "fast-travel" to Boston at all.

2. No more alt-characters. All multi-logins should be banned.

Sure. And after using the wilderness guide, every new player would be lost alone forever and leave the game definitly. What a wondefull idea...

What I'd like is a reworked "tutorial". Telling new players to talk to the wilderness guide and send them wherever without telling them how vulnerable they are must be the worst thing on Salem.

1. To put trading caravans on the roads of new-world.

2. Like everyone do - collecting system config info from users and checking IP matching.

Also means - no NPC-guides.

And where newbies will get their first seeds and iron? Tip: it's the beginning of a new world and noone has those yet.

Impossible. Let's make it short - whatever idea you come up with, I can come up with 2 ways to circumvent it. And I have only a basic knowledge about those things.

Let's make it short. I got no knowlege about those things, but if it works in PlanetSide 2 and some other games (players got banned with all their accounts at once - i saw it) - it can work everywhere. Simple ban by HWID works pretty fine with most n00b-users. So put your basic knowlege in your ass as deep as you can.

:lol:
It doesn't take a lot of effort to circumvent those methods. Just because someone was stupid and got banned doesn't mean it works perfectly. Besides, what is the point in making alts in planetside?

I do agree that multi accounts are problem in Salem, but there is no simple solution for this, unless you want for Devs to 24/7 watch over logs and ban people, and sadly mostly they will be able to ban newbies, but pros or programers that are playing salem are able to go "stealth" with any IP detector you can imagine.

You should get some warning from mods for that last sentence.
