I think some of you are having troubles understanding what is involved that would make this work so here's a friendly reminder to READ THE DAMN OP
It will answer 70% of your questions
under the following conditions:
- only authenticated players who paid a certain amount of credits and proven they will not abuse this will be allowed to multibox, and this can be revoked at any time
- max 4 chars multiboxing, max 2 chars in the same system
- The player is able to RP all chars
- Only log 4 ships during off hours of <50 server activity. once server activity goes above 50 ppl, the player has 10 minutes to log off a ship to compensate.
- the player is allowed to log 2 ships when 50<server activity<100
- the player is only allowed 1 ship when server activity > 100
- The player is not causing server lag
- Only one transport may be logged at a time. Only one miner logged at a time. non exclusive (because come on self mining really isn't that bad)
edit 1 - All multiboxing ships will be tagged so that it is clearly indicated to be a multiboxing ship. this tag will also solve many other issues
The idea is this: Disco has low server activity, especially during off hours. So why not have more ships around? even the worst player with his attention divided across 4 ships is 10x better fun than a npc.
Welp, time to block off Magellan, Cortez, Galileo and Keplar with rogue dessies then.

For starters, why not? assuming the rogues have that many dessies to spare. Of course, at the same time the new buffed NPCs will probably make you explode before you catch your first victim.
No atmosphere? GTFO.
The propeller is the greatest invention of all time.
issues that can be solved.
Multiboxing was banned because abuse, and limited server slots - both problems my proposed rules addresses.

Otherwise it's really just more responsibility and fun for the players, especially in simultaneous encunters rapidly switching personas trying to rp your way out of 4 different situations

Will lead to a bunch of Q_Q, some confusing and complicated sanctions, and will lead to people having less interaction with other players, because now they can just do the role of two characters by themselves.
At the same time you'd get 4 transports per encounter to pirate.....

Alright ill grant that in certain situations multiboxing would be nice (mining for example). I will admit there have been many times my miner has been lonely and I would have loved to log in my hauler. However I just don't see how it could be done in a way that would be fair. You run the risk of people running mini fleets that would harm game play authenticated users or not.
