I was under the impression that it is OK on different PCs, alpha account or not.
good luck though trying to prove that your "other notebook" is not a virtual machine box.

Well I see a lot of such posts. Can my... "My wife, my friend, room mate" and others play on the same IP from different PC.

If that is alowed, praise the CCP:) I will have some fun :D

Hey hey CCP.

Got a question for you guys:

Is it alowed to log with 10+ alpha accounts if I log each from individual PC?:))

I have ~20 notebooks sitting and awaiting your confirmation on this


Edit: And of course, every account will be controlled individually, no input broadcasting.

Its not permitted for one person to play more than one account at a time unless all of the accounts being played concurrently are paid accounts.

It is permissable for multiple unpaid accounts to be run from the same IP address provided those accounts are held by (and used by) different people. Not entirely sure how that affects children of the account holder though.

From the EULA :

2. YOUR ACCOUNT

You may establish more than one Account for each copy of the Software licensed. You are however not allowed to play EVE by using more than one Account at the same time, unless you pay a subscription fee for each of the Accounts you intend to use for that purpose.

So if you do it & get caught its a permaban.

It will be interesting to see how CCP handles this.

So CCP has stated that a person cannot play more than 1 Alpha account, even on different computers

CCP has always failed to realise that the everyone loses, especially themselves and the game, since the day they banned ISBOX

Here's the result of not allowing multibox:

- they lose hundreds if not thousands of possible subs due to the fact that people is having fun
- the community loses a ton of content and game activity
- people lose interest yet again and stop playing without giving a go at sub

and so much more.. there's basically only negatives by not allowing multibox.

PS: Create a limit of multibox per IP if multiboxers bother you, make it 4 clients per IP that should plenty for people to have fun.

If you can't, then that's a shame. My son wants to have a go at Eve as well, if we can't both play from same IP (though different PC's) then it's going to be , hey your turn to play now!

They can't play them at the same time without breaking the EULA, they can have as many accounts as they want, just can't play them at the same time unless they're paying subs on them.

I see lots of bans coming in, just like back in the days when you could multibox trials & "CCP will never know"

Again, discussing how you can "wreak havoc" is against the forum rules.

CCP has posted their policy, we've repeated / linked it here, follow it, or don't (and suffer the consequences).

We're not your babysitters, don't care if you get banned.

We're not CCP's babysitters either, don't care if they get more or fewer subscriptions. Play the game while it's available / while it's good, move on when it starts to suck or they shut down the servers.

EDIT: They do have the information in the Launcher: the Launcher / the game / the server will not give you access if it detects multiple Alphas. All these threads are because people haven't tried, because they know it's against the rules and don't want to risk a ban. But we cannot discuss bans or CCP's detection methods. The only option for such threads is to open a support ticket and ask, instead of starting a thread.

So CCP has stated that a person cannot play more than 1 Alpha account, even on different computers.

Also, per the EULA, account sharing is not allowed, even between family members. Your GF, BF, wife, husband, kids, etc., must have accounts registered in their name, not yours. Except for minors, which require a parent or adult to open the account / supervise the account.

And finally, discussing CCP's detection methods is against the forum rules.

So, given all this, it would make sense to me that, if you have multiple family members wanting to play as Alphas, make sure that they register their own accounts, with separate emails, so when CCP detects multiple Alphas coming from the same IP, they check and see that it's legitimately different people.

EDIT: As for the OP's situation, you need to get 19 wives / live-in girlfriends, or convince your wife/GF to have 18 kids, or a mix of the two.
