So I’m going to be leaving tomorrow to go to a friend’s house (on the opposite coast.) The thing is, they also play Forumwarz. If I log into my account while I’m there, will I be b&? |

So bampersand! Probably not. I think it goes by IP address so you just won’t have any visits. But if I’m wrong correct me. |

You will get visits, but you’re liable to be b&. |

At risk of giving away our top secret ban formula: if you just do it once chances are very low that you’d be banned. We look for repeat offenders. Evil Trout edited this message on 03/13/2008 1:39PM |

Alright, thanks. Good to know.
I don’t think they’re a very active player anyways. Arktor edited this message on 03/13/2008 2:13PM |

For the sake of clarification, can anyone explain why playing from a different location could risk leading to a ban? I travel a lot, and so if this is an issue, it’s one that I’d like to be aware of before I leave my city/timezone. |

They track IPs to make sure that people aren’t playing multiple free accounts. Since Arktor was going to a place where she’d be on the IP network of someone else who plays, she was worried it’d flag her as having multiple free accounts. |

As I understand, it isn’t so much playing from a different location as it is playing from the same external IP address as someone else who plays. (Thank goodness, I travel a lot too.) |

What’s wrong with having multiple free accounts? I don’t even see a point in having it, since you can’t send other players flezz or anything. Besides, even if you get banned, you could always use a proxy or turn off your router for about 5 minutes and then you get a new ip. Log in to see images! |

Wow, I didn’t know IP addresses were checked often. Is it in any way possible to see characters being used from different computers within the same house? My roomie has a character and I might have to make him give up the game/buy him an account. |

i think the main reason you cannot have multiple acounts is because they have a option to get multiple character with brownie points. |
