Suggestion: Allow for multiple accounts!! [Rejected]

Post by jjjjj »

Why not leave players the option of having multiple accounts?

This would of course require changing the matching system so that multiple accounts by the same player can not participate in the same game, but that should be an easy modification.

It might for instance be useful to have couple of accounts, some in which the player is competitive and the others in which the player plays more casual games.

Given the current pointing system where players lose more points against lower ranked opponents, competitive players are forced to play with high point opponents, but high point players are quite difficult to find for a quick casual game. If it were possible to have a second account in which the player is not competitive, he/she could find a quick game with an arbitrary opponent, without worrying about the opponent's points...

Many games with ladders allow for multiple accounts (e.g. almost all rt's i know of: WC3, SC,..).

No.

There would be too much abuse.

Hell, there already is, and it's against the rules!

well, if it was allowed then non-premium players will be able to play the same amount of games as premiums, so i dont think its a good idea since less people wil buy premium and Lack will lose money, not that its a bad thing

No, competitive players try their best to win every game. Score sluts are the ones that are forced to (choose to) only play with other high point opponents.

Of course you do acknowledge that playing games with those of similar ability also means consistently more competative games :D

Hmm... the content of the original post and the poster's name - "jjjjj" - may perhaps call for a multi check?

well if iiii posts, you wont have to look far

im just joking j Im assuming you arent a multi obviously
