sign up- multiple account clarification
Posted: Mon Sep 15, 2008 9:29 amConcise description:
Specifics:
Currently the sign up is worded:
Warning: Having multiple accounts is considered cheating. We routinely scan for multiple accounts and offending members will be banned from Conquer Club.
I will only have one account
I propose changing the "I will only have one account" to "I will only have one account in my lifetime"
This will improve the following aspects of the site:
- Change the wording on the initial sign up to make it clearer for some people to understand

This will improve the following aspects of the site:
- certain permabanned members feel that since there account is no longer active, that creating a 2nd account is legal as they think they no longer have the original account. Short of giving these people an additional brain cell, stating that 1 account per lifetime may clarify this situation.
I agree with you on one thing, Something should be done, but as it stands now, the warning means squat. When a player is caught cheating, he is NOT banned as the warning states. 
He is busted down to 1000 points, and made to pay again for upgrading to premie. 
I think the only change that should be made is... State the true policy for all to see. I view it as a false addvertisement to put a warning that is in fact, a lie. It gives a false impression that the site is clean and free of cheaters. If the true policy was stated in the warning, I imagine that fewer people would join CC. I like the warning as it is. I Only wish that it was truely followed.
