1 Faction Player per IP logged in?

Just want to get an idea how the playerbase feels on this:

Idea:

You should only be permitted to have one faction character logged in at a time based on IP.

Pro's:

Cut's down on gimpness of having 4 characters logged in to do your bidding/spying.

Con's:

Screws people who play from one central location

Note: at no time did I say I was going to do this, it's just something thats been brought up from time to time.

Thoughts?

I can see the benefits of this but i don't think it's a viable idea. I like having a TB to log on if there's a hundred Minax on and visa versa. Too bad it works both ways.

emulate UO like it used to be as best you can....try it out.

it wasn't one factioner per IP on OSI, but most people had only one account.

I like being able to log on an alt to res msyelf or res my pet, my point still stands.

Also, please stop flaming the announcements forum.

yes, ppl wont be able to kill their own chars for meaningless points, no more bot ganks and ppl not reappearing on an alt 2 secs after they die. if u need rez then u can just gate yourself to a shrine. it wouldnt hurt to try it for awhile anyway and see how it goes. i still think 1 faction char per ip would be even better though.

i vote yes!

Re: 1 Faction Player per IP logged in?

I voted no based on the fact that my husband and I are networked together at home and share an IP

This would acctually be a step towards resurrecting what factions was on OSI. Here its just C / O with a point system. on OSI players were entirly concerned with the status of the one faction they were a part of and the focus was on capturing the sigils, not getting a high score. Allowing players to cross faction as they please entirly liquidizes the value of the faction system.

COMPLETELY AGREED.

Impressive.

It sounds like a really good idea except for people who share and IP address, thats just kinda unfair. Is it possible to set certain IPs to allow mulitples on at a time if they can prove it?

IPY used to block players from having multiple clients logged in on the same IP. They also had instructions on a post which would allow you to prove to them you had multiple computers on the same IP and would then allow you 2-5 client slots.

I'm only afraid because I know ICQ and I share an IP at times, or at least have, due to him being on Comcast and me being on Comcast. I know my nigga Daz is on Comcast too, and he lives even closer.

Well I guess its a nice idea but since KRRIOS will still be able and "allowed" to use his 100 bots I don't think it will really have an effect on anyone .. thx
