No Nonsense Policy on Multis Put into Effect, Azool Disables 23

After a brief announcement yesterday, Azool disabled 23 of the initial 32 accounts flagged by his brief search for multi-accounts. Azool states that such searches will be more periodic and thorough from this point forth. “I find the multis and send a notice to the user...if they don’t respond with a valid reason in 24 hours they are disabled” Due to the delicate nature of these investigations, the Administrative staff was regretfully unable to inform us here at the Post as to the exact method of detection. With the SMR staff now hot on their tails, we here at the Galactic Post join the community as a whole in anticipation of seeing the flood of multi accounts be reduced to a trickle.

Passing Salvene Rescues Endangered Creonti from Tree

Now, in humanitarian news, a simple act of kindness saves a life. While making an exchange at a heavily trafficked port in the Omar galaxy, Trib, a prominent Salvene in the trading industry, heard cries of distress, as if from a child, emanating from a small grove of Meier trees nearby. The tiny cries penetrated to his tiny arachnid heart (after taking several moments to penetrate the creature’s hardened chitin), and Trib rushed to the grove to investigate. Upon his arrival, Trib discovered a tiny, runt like being dangling precariously from a splintering branch and mewling in distress. The being was later identified as Killertoot, one of the now rare and endangered Creonti, which have suffered since the hacker assault on Combat Accessories mainframes rendered many of their products inoperable or buggy. Without much difficulty, Trib helped the little being down from its perch before the heavy branch broke away to crush Killertoot beneath. The small Creonti is now safely returned to Federal Space, where authorities can monitor its progress closely. Reports have indicated that a prior investigation into Trib for the supposed consumption of several Creonti families has now been dropped.

Forsaken Sweep the Galaxy, Pummel Planetary Defenses

In an apparently autonomous assault yesterday, a fleet from The Forsaken gathered at approximately 12 AM server time and continued the dirty business started by Brotherhood of Steel 3 hours before. With a fleet numbering around 10, The Forsaken swept across both Livstar and Doraith, striking what numbered nearly a dozen worlds. Targets of note were those struck by Brotherhood previously and 1374, which yielded two kills.

Little other action occurred in this length but mostly uneventful assault. Such strikes look to become the norm, however, as alliances jockey to control the ground before stiff planetary defenses restrict them to the ground.
