Despite socioeconomics all players must have the rules applied evenly. No player should ever believe they are justified in breaking the rules.

I agree but I'm not sure what the solution is. If FF could cap the amount of cards you used in a day that might even the playing field but we would still have multiaccounters.

Accepting multi-accounting as a common practice rewards individuals with an abundance of time. I'm not sure if there is a correlation to socioeconomics, but I know from my personal lifestyle that I only have time for one account because I work 40-50 hours a week. That doesn't include other hobbies. So the edge I get in game is that I'm able to card heavily when needed, but my job supports that.

I'm afraid if multiaccounting is permitted you will have a much larger divide in the community. You will have the richer players who are also in positions where they can game more, paying for crowns on multiple accounts and using them as a network of players. The other end of the spectrum would be the players who do not work and live off a socialistic economy. They have nothing but time, so they too create a network of accounts. That would squeeze out the averagejoe who works, has a relationship and a healthy work-life balance.

This is a not a FREE TO PLAY GAME. I think this is the misconception.

I think they are very clear in their mission. Firefly like all companies need operating funds. They have it by supporting their customers who by crowns. /Salute
