Hi everyone,
I want to address some of your concerns real quick:
* We recently added one guard tower to each faction quest hub. There are only three faction quest hubs in each racial territory, so they have little impact on gameplay, other than offering some protection for players who just started playing the game.
* There are no additional guard towers planned.
* We know that at least one tower was wrongly placed close to a chaos stone, and it will be removed shortly.
* As far as rogue/alignment mechanics go, we are looking at various improvements to the system. Keep in mind that at release you can only have ONE character, so the majority of the playerbase may play the game differently than they do in beta.
* We are currently testing functionality that will give city owners more control over when they can be challenged.

Apparently these salad tossers never thought that people would buy two accounts just to simply SPY!! The only thing "One" character per account does is support their business model of forcing more unit sales and a higher "inflated" subscription base once they get ready to offload this game.

No offense intended here, but how are they going to enforce that people are only playing as one character?
Track IP's and ban people who use multiple accounts from the same IP? What about people who live together and want to play seperate characters?
No users from the same email address or physical address? It's easy to create alternate emails and again, if there's like 2-3 people living in a house in college, they have to share one character?
I think this is the best way to go about it... sure, some people will still try to cheat, but how is that different from any other MMORPG? It's up to guilds to screen their members, and I don't think there's anything wrong with that.
