whats the matter with multi-accounting?
1) Every account in eve has a potential to provide isk per time so with multiple accounts, being one consumer you multiply the isk you get. For example you can run missions with multiple ships or have plenty of R&D agents running.
2) In pvp, i.e. you can take a recon, lets say falcon and your pvp ship to get an uber advantage upon other pilots controlled by single person. This way i was ganked yesterday btw.
3) You can sit cloaked all day in a system to get useful intel, while playing with your main account character.
4) Social drawback - you can have many alts which are hard to track so you can use them as spies. Pretend to be a different person than one knows you with your main.
Can't think of any more reasons but in general its a huge drawback to a mmorpg.

The only solution i see - account trading for rl money could be allowed temporary, so that multi-accounters would be given time to sell their alt accounts.

Nothing wrong with multiaccounting.
Just sour grapes from those that don't do it/haven't figured out how easy and useful it is. I play on a main and build/invent/trade on an alt at them same time.
Let me repeat myself in other words. It could be nothing wrong with multi-accounting if everyone would have the same count of alt accounts and they would be free of charge but even then, why would it be needed?
In this situation we have, multiple accounts create a huge gaps between players power-wise. I mean for single account user A same ship has much higher value than it has for user B who owns many accounts. It means that if they pvp (what eve is about) (if multi-account pilot has his alts offline so pvp could be fair) and user A kills user B ship, user B can come to pvp for his loss the same day but if B kills user A then user A has to invest a lot more time in isk making to recover from his loss. <-- How this is not a problem?
There will always be many single-account users as there will always be even more multi-account users and it will always be an issue, thus eve will always be ***.
