Are you suggesting popularity to be the primary factor when designing rules and regulations?
Thats not popularity ishue , it is commom sense . If adminstrators completly ignore what mayority of players beleve it is good for game , there is strong possiblility that they will loose all those players and be left alone in server .
One cannot swim against flow for long .
So the solution to the declining player population is to allow multiboxing so as to, in that way recruit by word of mouth and locally?
Really?
How about not ostracizing, driving away or simply ignoring people in RP in benefit of your own storylines, till they get tired of the game and use the 4 to 6 hours a day on some other game with much less click-isms and complexes of grandeur among the GenPop . The same people that keep looking for solutions to the problem have been or are the root of the problem.
Multiboxing would not be allowed. Allowing multiple people in the same household to play the whole game together and not just PvP/RP together is what would come of this proposal.
My old man and my sister used to play Freelancer with me (the former, regularly; the latter, occasionally).
People started whoring single-man convoys, and the response was harsh, too harsh in my opinion. Needless to say, my family no longer plays.
I agree with this proposal.

I'm in concurrence with this. There's quite a few people I know who'd like to try FL with me, but due to living in a dorm, the internet connection is all the same ofc.
At the end of day , whats the worst thing that can happen:
One player can work twice as much and earn twice as much by trading than average trader ?
I have no problem with that , if he want to risk permenant ban and to loose evrithing he has earned , that his doom ,it is not like he will be able to do that un-noticed for long , people have ayes and notice things .
If people try to exploit the rule to gain an advantage they need to be dealt with on a case-by-case basis. There's not enough people to justify the rule, hell, even when the server was full almost all the time you could hardly justify it.
It's REALLY easy (as in laughably easy) to identify unique users on a single address with the right tools, it should be even easier with the FLHook magic people managed to do when I played the game, to say nothing of the way it is now.
Please make this happen.

I personally have encountered this a couple of times.
The rule definitely does not help with recruiting new players.
Cause mining/trading is an activity new people usually start with.
(In case they are not interested in flying snubs, they stay there for quiet a while.)
Let us not forget all the people who were silent about this as well.
I’m about to move and my new roommate is a friend. I’ve been trying to get him to play for a while and he is willing to start but won’t if this is still an issue. Especially when a new player starts they want to get up to speed as fast as possible and helping them earn credits mining trading seeems to be the best way. As of now though that won’t be allowed to happen.
