Have a read of the basic ALT guide. Unfortunately the idea couldn't effectively be policed. Most ppls get confused between bad ALT behavior and what is actually bad PC behavior. 

An abuse of the gameplay mechanic is always made by a PC. Stop using the word ALT as its an internal view. A weak game mechanic should be changed if we see PC abuses. ALTs are functions used by PCs to execute the abuse.

using ALTs with in your own nation can be useful. It's the way that they are being abused that's the problem. And wee have ben being policed a lot lately! So.....

completely unenforceable.. How do you know the other account from same IP isn't a family member or friend using the same internet?

There is a reason mine are in Pirates, it's easy to handle them that way, but I"ll repeat what the Devs have said about it. "Every nation had it's Traitors and Spy's"   Than I"ll add an old saying, "Loose Lips, Sink Ships."

It would be more challenging for the rats....um I mean Pirates to have to recruit spy's rather than just be there own spy's.

I genuinely like the idea of spies and intrigue within the game so too would most I guess.

The problem is the mechanic not allowing for a "RISK" offset for the spy that can be caught. I've no idea how it could be worked in but the spy area as some wonderful avenues....
