    Multies

    In the past and up to a few months ago thate were one or two members who had a couple of accounts but these have been whittled down. Hopefully they won't repeat their actions again but some will try. CAM and I take this seriously as we don't want it to ruin your (and ours) enjoyment when using the site.

    There are a few posters who members automatically consider them to be multies and treat them with content. If they were multies they definately would not be posting.

    The last IP address I found with two accounts was openly offered the chance to chose the account they wanted to. The member could have done this through the 'Notifications' available as informed on top of the board. They didn't contact me so I left open the long standing account and closed the brand new one. (There is another version of this story available on another board).

    Every new member have their information checked out so we know if they've posted before under another name. We can only go back so far as you'll appreciate due to the changes made to the site.

    If you think there is a member with multiple accounts that we've missed then please tell us through the 'Notifications' and we'll look into it.

    Thank you.

    Your efforts are good but those with VPN accounts won't be caught.

    Your time would be better spent moving the long political posts to the O/T section.

    But you're doing a great job under the circumstances

    Agree with Grist about the political threads. Likewise with the racist posts.

    Not quite sure if Frog is referring to me but can we set the record straight. Cam had several times checked my IP address for various reasons and I was fully aware that he would check the IP address of any new poster, particularly a controversial one.
    At the time of the Kempo=Nogbad old school chum controversy I invented a new user called Rod kemp. gm-gm and a couple of others spotted the anagram right away and I posted that I hadn't noticed it and even posted to Cam about Sherlock Holmes. There was never the slightest intention on my part that the subterfuge would go undiscovered and I virtually told Cam it was me.
    The Rod Kemp account was closed by Frog. At no time did anyone from MM contact me about it and no one has ever contacted me from MM before or since.
    Frog and Cam's reliance on IP addresses to detect multis is misplaced. It's the easiest thing in the world to post with different IP addresses. I kept the same address with Rod Kemp precisely so that the mods would spot it was me. It was intended as a joke along the lines of the Zilzal dead horse farce.

    Welcome back Monty. Rod Kemp was an attack against kempo and that's not acceptable.

    This stops members posting as they don't enjoy something they can't trust.

    It makes me smile when I see talk of multis on here from the usual experts telling us how easy it is....They are mainly the same names who repeatedly and wrongly say that I post under multiple names....They talk utter nonsense and as I say are totally wrong.

    I don't really post much on here because I am a very busy and important person and have far better things to do than correcting Frog's spellings.

    UTM and lots of love from
