as yall may know, the west is sick a while (long while), full of cheaters and abusers of disposable and low level accounts, and as InnoGames seem not care/being completely unable to fight against those that f*$#k the game, and make lots of worlds die and people stop to play (which results in less money to InnoGames) here is a simple solution that might will cutoff by the roots what these cheaters keep doing since the game exists (It's not what we would like, but unfortunately its what we need)...

Even though the rules are implicit, there are already several ways for a multi-account to disguise and continue proliferating various items illicitly, and Innogames is unable to combat this effectively, the only option left is to cut it off at the root, that is, to reduce the ways these despicable players can continue behaving as they do.

And all of this is only possible because of one thing: there are no limitations on market usage. You just need to confirm your email, and that's it. (And it could still be a temporary email) as you can see, they dont even hide (all tendeiro20):

i can think only 2 ways to deincentivate them from doing these malicious behavior, and because InnoGames is unneficient to find a way to guarantee that nobody will do these behavior and cant guarantee also a safe space to their players, those 2 ways are very far from being good, but its what they deserve, and we should accept it if you guys bring it.

1: stop bringing those 100 collect events, these only spread more and more items, and make very profitable to make mult. (most because newer sets are not that better, specially weapon and ride sets)

2: market limit... since the market being so easy and always accessible, it become extremely easy just passing items and also extremely profitable, so a way to avoid that is adding some limitation to it (again, thats not what i or we want, but its what we need), one limitation that i can think of is a phone number confirmation, this would decrease a lot how profitable is to make multis, and would also demotivate to keep doing this, as i said thats not perfect, but we need that, worlds keep getting destroyed, and innogames lose money and lots of players because of those cheaters that do the same things for more than 10 years.

Phone number confirmation is not possible due to certain laws that InnoGames has to follow apparently.

Requierement of e-mail confirmation before you can use the market would eliminate the majority of multis and should be an easy implementation for the development team.

But they don’t read the forum at all and prefer adding weird items ingame

No. This system is very easy to manipulate. There are plenty of websites that offer temporary email addresses. And if someone is already creating multies, they obviously have the time to create new Gmail accounts as well, even without using temporary emails. Phone numbers can also be bypassed using temporary or virtual numbers, which many websites provide.

If you want a real, effective change against multies, the dev team should require players to reach at least level 50 before gaining access to the market. A multi account user might have time, but not that much time to level several accounts all the way to 50. I’m confident that if this change is implemented, the use of multies will drop significantly, since most multi users don’t level their accounts past level 20.

With a level 50 requirement, they can’t funnel resources to their bots early on, meaning leveling them would take significantly more time. At that point, it simply wouldn’t be worth the effort for most multi users.

you have logs to check that, blocking market until 50 level would kill the game for newcomers, older players coming back and so on
they just need a tool to automatically ban bots, that is aligned with Data Privacy and GDPR, as this problem came live when dobby was internationally spread across with easy access

We have been suggesting hundreds of good ways how to prevent too many multies, but unless there is not a good CM on each language version who is well paid and is full time here, nothing will ever change. Nor bot, nor multies, no duel warner, nothing. So, by lowering employees dont expect that somebody will even reply to your ticket, not even solve the problem. And, since 1 days harvesters are literally for one day, if 1 CM is going to have 3-5 other functions on others game, you will be luke if you get answer withing 14 working days :D So, we have to embrace fact that this is what we have and it will go down from here even more. No more spending money, more focusing on server exchanging with other players. The only way how to deal with such a thing as 100x chest on market is to just not buy it.
