Just to give some frank honesty from a new user-- people are NOT generally trying to create multiple accounts. Most people are just trying to just allow multiple people in their family/household to make their own accounts. It seems a little ridiculous that you would tell people who have their own logins to a computer (profile) that they can't create an account on a given computer when its a new account for a new user. The original game certainly allowed this.

You have to take into account that people from the same house might want to play the game.

They understand this, and if you email them, they get back with you rather quickly. A whole group of my friends were on the same apartment's wifi, sent an email after getting banned and got it resolved in like 30 minutes.

SoE did allow multiple accounts. As long as you pay for them, they don't care if you have 50. SWGEmu is free, and in order to prevent people from unfairly getting an upper hand, they are enforcing a single account policy.

from the very first post in this thread...

"using other people's computers will also trip the detector. I don't know how many times I've got to say this... but BEFORE CREATING NEW ACCOUNTS OR USING OTHER ACCOUNT-HOLDER'S COMPUTERS, EMAIL community@swgemu.com"

Note again :BEFORE CREATING NEW ACCOUNTS OR USING OTHER ACCOUNT-HOLDER'S COMPUTERS, EMAIL community@swgemu.com"

easy fix and everyone in teh household can play...

and yes the Original game allows multiple accounts on one PC IF, key word there IF, you bought the game more than once... you paid for it you paid monthly for teh accounts.. . EMU is free so there is no buying accounts this is pretty much the only way that they can keep someone from making a zillion accounts and running a city all by themselves and such. Also in EMU, unlike the original game, you can create more than one char and have them both logged in at teh same time (think limit is 2)
