I Have a Suggestion for Similar Worlds

Can you add IP checking to accounts to prevent an IP having more than a normal family amount of accounts? Say 7 accounts maximum linked to a single IP. I know this will not help if someone is using vpn, but maybe you can use some logic to check for cross IP's, like if they log in with one IP for user X, then login with a different IP for user Y, and then one day login with the Y IP by mistake, you immediately associate the two and add them together as one IP (Max 7 accounts).

This might help with all the fakes, the bullies, the children on here that just enjoy confusing people.

Hello,

Unfortunately, it is not that simple to prevent fakes/bullies/spam.

We already have limits on how many accounts you can create per IP. However, it's very simply to bypass those limits, if one knows a bit of Internet/Computers.

I'm confident we already do a great job preventing a large percentage of spammers/trolls, but unfortunately it's not easy (if even possible) to totally stop them.

If our members continue to report those bad profiles (as you guys currently do, and do a great job), they will get suspended very quickly and eventually get annoyed ;)

[c=#BF0000][b]And when they don't learn how to stop, we gather their personal information and eventually take further actions.[/b][/c] Yes - even when they try to keep it anonymous, most likely we already know who they are...

Thank you,
Nuno
