Special Ops

 A player in Delta 2 is creating new accounts and using the free region teleport to drop them in an alliance territory. So far they have dropped 6 and it will continue. The effect will be to destroy the land and cut it off from the rest of the hive. This cheat was used 6 months ago and you had claimed to have put a stop to it. This seems to be untrue. Please investigate immediately and remove these nuisance accounts ASAP! Coordinates in Delta 2 where they are currently dropping is 161,141. The player responsible should be dealt with harshly. This is not an acceptable way to play the game.

Is there any limit at all to how many accounts a single player is allowed to have? When I think of having an alternate account I think of 1 or 2. After all, who has time for more? When considering this policy, was there ever a discussion about where the line would be drawn? Can a player have 5 accounts, giving them the ability to lock up 45 squares with bases and 135 more with outposts? What about 10 accounts? Or 20? What if I player wanted to run more than 30 accounts all by himself and have the power to lock up 1,000+ squares with just his alternate accounts? Is that still encouraged?

I currently cannot get on using mobile, steam, wife, or mobile data. I have been on since the update today and am only now experiencing connectivity issues. Anybody else?

Players are starting new accounts on the new region, completing the tutorial and then using the region teleport to strategically move their new level 2 base to a position within an enemy hive on their home region and then abandoning their new player shield. They are doing this with DOZENS  (not and exaggeration) of level 2 bases until they are all linked together to cut off the enemy hive and cause them to lose the land. Since it takes 20 attacks to destroy even a level 2 base it is not practical to destroy the bases to save the land. Even if you destroy just one to break the chain, the others eventually flip the locked land to neutral. These bases/ alt accounts are not being played at all. They are built for the singular purpose of destroying an enemy hive and subsequently abandoned. This process is being recycled as much as the players desire as there seems to be no limit. To put it in perspective, one alliance has lost over 10,000 sectors in just over 28 hours. Others are well on their way to losing all they have worked to build. THIS is one reason why all other games don't allow more than one character per player/per region. It ALWAYS gets abused and now it is driving away people that actually play while also preventing new players from starting accounts as I assume there are a finite number of bases allowed per region. 

This is accomplished by removing the app from a mobile device, reinstalling the app on the mobile device, starting the game and completing the tutorial in Theta 1, then using the region teleport to find the specific drop point for your new base. Lastly, scout a sector to drop the shield and repeat the process all over again. With just an hour of free time and a committed group of players a 50 person alliance can be overwhelmed by hundreds of bases on their hive gradually turning their sectors and destroying the hive.

There is no way this doesn't somehow violate your ToU. I don't advocate for bans often, but this is not competitive game play and is deserving of bans.
