Hi all,

most of you are well-known to the referral system. If a new players registers with a reference to an "old" player will get a bonus.

A user misused this system and pushed the own account within the top 20 (he used 190 fake accounts ....) - so I removed them all, and additional many other referral-fake-accounts: In total the sum of 435 (!!!!!!!).

Using such an amount of faked accounts to get monthly cash is not just unfair: As you all mentioned the server is slow within some hours - this seems to be the case when the month-change-script is running. Doing all the stuff for about 435 accounts every day is slowing down the server.

For the future there will be extreme restrictions for referrals:

- For just four new users you will get paid.
- The bonus will be reduced to 10,000 $ instead of 10,000,000$.
- Fake accounts will be removed before bonusses apply, myself will monitor this accounts

Bye,

Tobias

I hope the user was fined as well for doing this.
Thanks Tobias for checking this sort of stuff!

Removed the user completely, inserted his last ip in the ipban list and will just monitor what happens.
