When posting on the forums, the character drop down box should be removed and defaulted to the character that has the highest skill points on the account.
No more hiding. Be a man! Or a woman for you lovely ladies that play this game.
Also, in before all the alt flames and tears.

But how will we sell locations and stuff when we have lost our last defence against locator agents?
Posting with an alt, just to make a point

This.
And to make an example:
Character A was created to be the founder of an alliance and is used to speak about alliance relate stuff in CAOD but is not the "main" as for Marlon definitiona (the character with more skillpoint on the account) because the PvP character on the same account has much more SP, he will disappear and never post again? Or maybe the mining and reprocessing alt will be the one used?

Not supporting with my alt.
This is kind of like learning skills, attributes and T2 BPO. Would have been nice to set up originally but te previous posts can't be undone.
What if one person split their posting between three toons. How could you fairly restrict him to a single toon?

Definition: Out of the 3 possible characters on the account, the character that has the most skill points out of the 3 would be classified as the 'main'. Therefor being the character that will show up when posting in the forums with that account.
Understand now?

So what happens to people who switch mains then? Or people that buy characters and suddenly can't use the character they always used to post with?
This wasn't well thought out. If you want to limit which characters post on the forums, how about make it so the FIRST character to post on the forums is the only one an account can use to post.
However this raises problems in itself and unless it was well thought out and developed I probably wouldn't support it either. ~

I agree with darius... but only the bit about the definition of a main.
However... the alt posting crud needs to stop... and that's a major turn off for me.
People will go make these stupid assed alts for the expressed purpose of posting trash on forums... that's the issue here... not necessarily the alts in-game.
some say the forums should have a singular account based on the user-name of said account... but that's a security risk itself.
If anything... something similar to PHPBB (3.0) boards where it blocks repeat email accounts and A.B.C IP filtration would go a long ways to stopping dupie accounts and alts.
It's not that hard... so perhaps we are approaching this from the wrong direction...
A separate and singular user-name per account for forum posting would be nice... and have it tack the name of the first char created... if it gets bio'd... have it switch to the next one (highest SP count if you wana get picky).
I'm just going off random notions here.. but hopefully you get the point. ========================= CEO of Shadow Cadre http://www.shadowcadre.com ========================= |

I understand what you are saying. It is one of those, 'the cat is out of the bag' deals. I think they should have only had one character per account. But that is just my opinion. I knew I would get zero support here simply because this game contains an insane amount of faceless critics that would prefer to stay that way.
"In many ways, the work of a critic is easy. We risk very little yet enjoy a position over those who offer up their work and their selves to our judgment. We thrive on negative criticism, which is fun to write and to read. But the bitter truth we critics must face is that, in the grand scheme of things, the average piece of junk is more meaningful than our criticism designating it so." - Ratatouille <-- good movie, but you guys get what I mean I hope.

LOL!
And coincidentally... I don't have many issues with 1 char per account being the rule of thumb. It's not unusual for people to have more than one account as it is... some how I wouldn't cry much over losing alts. Would be annoying but not THAT annoying. ========================= CEO of Shadow Cadre http://www.shadowcadre.com ========================= |

This is kind of stupid as I can just post using an account that correlates not at all to the characters I typically play on.....o wait... Support Manalapan for CSM!

Firstly, my "main" doesn't have the most skillpoints of all my characters.
Secondly it wouldn't be an issue because I can post with any of my alt accounts, which kinda negates the entire point of this proposal...

What is the OP expecting to accomplish with forcing people to use their mains? I question this having a tangible benefit. I post with an alt because in discussions like the ones in the Assembly Hall having your corp/alliance ticker attached is just unnecessary baggage that detracts from the subject. The OP should know, having been in polarizing alliances like Tri...

Obvious posting with an alt!
I can't support this.
This is Eve-online after all. The game with one server. The one server with RP-players and not RP-players. When posting on the forums I may want to stay anonymous from an in game player point of view (Don't argue, ppl do go mocking about forum posts).
Being a multiple account player with active chars on both accounts. Who would be my "main" the one with most SP or the one I put most playing resources into, and how to measure this? This kind of forced posting mechanism would mostly hurt singe account players.
And for those that think this is a good way to stop personal warfare on the forums. Naaah, the Gm's can see all your toons!

Sorry for not making sense
This thread sums my objection up: http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1293796
Someone found a nice well used system with no market where they could potentially make quite a bit of isk and asked for advice and stuff from more experienced players on how they should proceed. As it is now he could post on an alt and keep his location a secret but as you suggest it should be impossible for him to ask for advice without losing the system

Quite easily I'd imagine
I'd be willing to support this if for example if when you selected your 'default' character that would become your permanant posting character (perhaps with a 4-5 day cooldown before you could switch).

Trying to get wardeced because of disagreeing with tons of people never worked for me so far.
Also wardecing people requires effort, being a ass on the forums does not, you just grief yourself... ---- Nerf Tank - Boost Gank!

And going that extra mile to squeeze "tears" from players and bullying is the mission of quite a few peeps. So yes, I believe there are a few that would make the effort to war dec just because someone disagrees with them. Hell, kiddies have done it for less, afterall.

Camping people/being camped makes me post more on forums not less, so it is pretty counter effective in this department. ---- Nerf Tank - Boost Gank!

My point is this idea will just bully people out, leaving just the idiots that thinks it's lulz. TRAPS comes to mind. Speak against them on your main and your alliance can pretty much be guaranteed a months long wardec.
No thanks. Until the kiddies learn to behave themselves (fat chance really) this will just be another tool for bullies to exploit.
