That really does not point to being a multi. The player is rather new and has not completed any games it could be that he or she is getting a feel for the site before playing. If the player is a multi it might be as a way to support another account in a forum section, but that seems unlikely.

I don't have any games going, and I'm actively posting on the forums. No multi though!

Bollocks.

- Not poking fun, but how the hell did this come up? Gotta at least play or be in one war to be accused of anything I think.

Not at all, it goes both ways...s/he could be accused of being a dead beat because he hasn't taken any turns or could be praised for not missing any. For proof of Multi the mods should check if there are others joined the same time from same country and also suspiciously doing nothing...if two or more were not in similar multi games, it could suggest Secret Diplomacy as well i.e. they are both/all conspiring to NOT play without announcing that in the games they are not in...suspiciouser and suspiciouser!!!

Maybe they're about to go on holiday and don't want to start any games...
Anyway, if you're not using the account to play games, does it matter? Who is it hurting?

Whether it be nobler of the mind to withstand the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, or to comme ci, comme ca, overcome a lesser Macedonian? Here is that question.

Generally speaking, this kind of thing is a way for established players to come online, insult or troll others, and escape any damage to the reputation of their real character. So, it's not that different from people who build a multi so they can join someone's game and mess it up without any consequences.

But both of you had a long history of playing games here, even if you're not playing any right now. Without even looking I will very confidently bet fifty bucks that neither of you posted in the politics forum on your first day here.

One doesn't accidentally wander onto a gaming site, avoid the games, and head straight for the politics forum with the precision of a guided missile to start trolling people. Someone searching for "games" will go to a gaming site and play some games, before possibly exploring the rest of it. Someone searching for "politics forum" will find Usenet, not Conquer Club.

Probably not provable, unfortunately, but guaranteed this is a multi.

I didn't understand what you what you wrote but Macedonians dont like arrows, we prefer spears(large ones) ;)

You may have over thought this. The guy could just be a troll and if I am correct you can report someone for that.

You're right, I waited until my second day.
By my third day, I had more posts (6) than games joined (5).

Bollocks.
