i also recommend that station defenses be completely immobile to prevent someone from another team switching to another team and knocking their flag defenses away.

But independence, it just feels soooo good to move all turrets near the flag.

Ray, I don't envy your task of solving this. Assuming the offenders may use multiple accounts to pull this off, you have to try to track players via some unique PC ID or via IP address. But there are problems with those ideas as well (multiple PCs, DHCP, etc.)

Free accounts makes this problem a lot harder than for the final game, where assuming everyone has one account is a lot safer.

well how about making it so you can only have 1 character. if you switch teams, your previous character is erased. and you can only switch teams once every 14 days

1 character? :/

As one of the devs said, having one character per account will just lead to multiple accounts.

perhaps it can check the IP of all entering players. if the IP has already bee used with a different name within the last hour, they can not log in

1 char per acnt is not good... but anyway ... what the fact of having a spy is cheating? it's like allying with another team to get the flag of the 3rd team... it's a tactic... as in real life there's alliance and spys existing and it can exist in the game too....

im not saying that i got a spy i got only 2 blue char it's seeable on my acnt

Having a spy IS cheating! The player logs on under their "spy" account and can see everything in teamchat without any risk at all!

Blue guy 1> Shall we cap on someone?
Blue guy 2> Sure, we need some more people though.
Blue guy 3> I'll help, who are we capping?
Blue guy 1> How about gold?
Blue guy 4> Ok, i'll help too.

Meanwhile on gold chat

Gold guy 1> What are the blues up to?
Gold guy spying on blue guys> They're planing an attack on gold!
Gold guy 2> Crap! I'll mine the flag!

Tell me, where in there is that fair?

demining is even worse :/
1 NATION per account I agree on.

3 nation per account, mines are going to get freindly fire turned off (exception to the layer of the mines).
