no it isn't in nearish future due various reasons like security to prevent running multiple countries via different fb-accounts.
I think we might just have to bite the bullet on this one and accept that multis are going to happen. My mom was a hardcore FarmVille player (lol. I know) and she created around ten fb accounts just to gift herself things. My point is, it happens and has happened and mods should just be aware and delete when they can. It should not stop EE from getting to the next level!
I played a game on my android for a while, The Infinite Black (Still on my phone, but I don't play due to lack of time) These people are nuts and encouraged to make "Alts" / alternate / multiple accounts. I only have two ships, but there are some with 5-10 ships. That's an incredible amount of time and or devices (programs) needed to run all your ships simultaneously.
It is alliance based with a very strong learning curve, but there are always people IN game ready to answer any question, live. Like a mini IRC. Public channel (universe) Alliance Channel, Clan Channel, Market Channel etc...
Anyway, my point is, maybe if players want to take that much time to play and are willing to do it, let them make multiple accounts and countries to start and work out the bugs to have one account at a later date to help the game?
My wife actually goes on my FB to play zinga poker, gift herself and plays a few other games that I would never play ( My friends think I'm great at these games they see these scores "I got", but I have never played them in my life lolz) . Would you rather have an "RD" running 5 countries with 10K players in the game or what we have now?
