a) That's for browsers, not games.
b) Even if it was for games, enjoy your 1920ms ping.  If you're lucky.  Seriously, if you've used Tor for 5 minutes you realize it's barely tolerable for basic browsing.  Games would be completely out of the question.



ANYway, things to watch out for with IP-based checks and bans:

* IP's which resolve to a .edu address, where lots of people will tend to have the same IP.
* IP's which resolve to something that looks like a business.  I'm pretty sure I got an entire 20,000 person corporation banned from a particular, popular website.  (They did not like my political views so they banned my IP, which I'm pretty sure the entire corporation used, or at least everyone on the east cost of the United States).


I imagine, though, that the IP match is only step 1.

Step 2 would be to put those accounts on some sort of watchlist.  If they are both logged in and active, fine.  If they tend to show up to empty servers at 4am on Tuesdays on opposite teams and reap 5x rewards with little or no action from one of the accounts then you can probably safely ban them both.

I don't really know what information is available to chadz though.  I'm just saying that IP, by itself, has flaws when it comes to knowing how many warm bodies are involved.  It's not a bad start, though, and multiple accounts could be a real problem if left unchecked.

Hey, not sure if this post is necessary or not.  I haven't been banned, but my brother, Frobot, plays cRPG about 5 feet away from me, haha.  He recently quit, but still logs on every other week or so.  Is and will always be inactive in strat.  Don't ban me, thanks guys.

Gay Order...100 Keys on 1 IP? WHAT.....THE...HELL!?

First the spammitars, then the autoblocks, then the siege, then this, what's next ?

The Grey Order seems to have a very strict moral policy.

Grey Poorder....i ve been saying this for half a year...

Exploit every overpowered weapon...
Exploit every possible bug...

They got an amount of decent guys, sure, but the majority is simply over the top.

Also heard Abay had like ~ 20 keys going...all banned.

I dont even want to know what the rest is doing...

Pathetic, not funny but surely worth a laugh.

No reason to play strategus under these circumstances.

http://russianproxy.ru/ - dinamic IP, lowers your ping(for russia) & costs 2,5$\month. There are many of such vpn services in europe.

Polish gaming community already has a notorious reputation but it's not enough for them, they need more.  :wink:

(click to show/hide)

Btw I'll use this opportunity and ask a question: Am I the only idiot around here (out of all clan leaders/officers/whatever) who refuses (always did and always will) to know his Clan Members User Names/Passwords and manage their Strategos affairs instead of 'em ? Just out of curiosity, that is. If yes, then there's really

No reason to play strategus under these circumstances.


....now or ever again.
I truly hope that something can be done about it, if we can't play a fair & square game then what's the point of it ?
Do you honestly think you have any sort of moral authority, Reyiz? Go genocide some more armenians and deny it ever happened, please, and stay in the middle east.

Does everyone in your clan play totally fair? Is it only GO guys that play unfair sometimes? No? So, please fuck off an mind your own business. And report the abuse, cheats and exploits. Spitting on us will not make you more saint than you are already. Are you saint?

OMG! +1.

Nevertheless, whiners still exist and still whine MOAR!

what??
Dude you tooks like that: "I killed your dog but i think the someone of your family killed some dog to so it fer"

Because of that silly move you dominated strat last time.
From the very beginning that was common knowledge then its forbidden.
Its a fucking part of the game, fucking part of he fucking strat to take all your members active there.
I am from Poland and i fell shame because of fucking trolls like Grey Order...
that long massive ban story on you clan... and you still trying to save some honor of GO??? Dude that clan lost  Honor long time ago.
