Penalty for suicidal sneaking
Sarakin:
Bad is that having a scout is a must in order to be successful, while losing one is just a 3 minutes scouting setback.

Or is it only becomes wrong if he says it on teamspeak? Or is it only a problem when someone dual-logs for that purpose? If that's the case, sneak should be nerfed (further) because people cheat?
Some days ago I saw a server message saying that who'll be found dual-logging in 10 minutes, will be banned for 6 months. It raised a question in me... why announce it? Or why isn't that the case all the time?

Sneak should not be nerfed because some people cheat. And will not. Author is naive if he thinks that devs will do something with it at all. They do nothing and with far more pressing problems. Dual-logging sneakers is a problem of a cheating, not a sneaking balance. Here's how to "nerf".
Ban announcing prevent from multiboxing those people, who dont use it yet, but can start to, because do not see any threats of punishment, see that other people use it, and nothing happens, so why no? Or people who already use it in same reason. Is a smart prevention measure.

Doesn't work. As long as dual logging and proxies are encouraged and fruitful ways to gain advantage people will find ways to abuse them. No matter how much you ban them, they will be back with other ips. It has been withnesses as long as this game has been around.
Instead of banning, proxy activities just need to be made less effective so that people aren't tempted to do it in first place.

Admins not just ban the ip, they delete the characters

Those characters that are caught are sentenced to jail for a whole FOnline season, so deleting that character leads to nowhere
