Bluewizard Posted November 18, 2001 Share Posted November 18, 2001 I have told my brother about these boards and he wants to register. The only problem is that there are only two computers in our house, and both have the same IP number. This, were a moderator or administrator to check the IP #'s, may lead to this moderator/administrator in beleiving that I am one person with two profiles on the boards. This is generally not allowed in other boards and I was banned on enix for just such an IP mistake. Before this problem happens again I thought I would ask before allowing my brother to register. I dont want to be banned from these forums as well. What can I do about this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warlock Posted November 18, 2001 Share Posted November 18, 2001 You will not be banned if you're brother signs up and has the same IP as you. So let you're brother sign up, no harm will come of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Transtic Nerve Posted November 18, 2001 Share Posted November 18, 2001 Well, you can let him register.... there are alot of people here with multiple names... we generally don't allow it, but we can't stop it all the time.... if he wants to join thats fine... make sure he follows the rules and whatnot.... no spamming... he's kinda your responcibility now to keep in control.... follow rules and you and him will have nothing to worry about :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluewizard Posted November 18, 2001 Author Share Posted November 18, 2001 I'll quote you on that. :D Anyway, you dont know my brother. He was on enix too, and got in a verbal abuse-type argument with all the elites and the admin. I'll let him register, but if he is my responsibility I'll have to keep a close eye on him.

James Posted November 18, 2001 Share Posted November 18, 2001 [color=indigo][size=1]When we ban people, we tend to use an IP ban anyway. So if your brother were banned, you would most likely be automatically banned by default. Also, we have no way to prove that two people are using the same IP. Therefore, when we ban someone with their IP, we are forced to stick to that IP, even if it means that someone else is banned who might be in their family or something. Otherwise it just becomes too difficult to distinguish who is who etc...[/size][/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for you, Bluewizard, I can say this. YOu had better keep your brother in check. For, if he goes, you go. And the rule has already been stated, all bans are final... -Justin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
