Question for administrators

Postby Lana » Tue Mar 06, 2018 8:37 pm

I just connected from three devices that I have in my home (All three of them are at my disposal right now, of course if I want to use them in the same time).
Can you tell me, if I use all three of them for three game accounts, how can you know that they are (not) my multi/proxy accounts?



Your Public IPv4 is: xx.xxx.xxx.1xx
Your IPv6 is: Not Detected
Your Local IP is: xxx.xxx.x.xx
Location: Herceg-Novi, 08 ME
ISP: Telemach d.o.o.

Your Public IPv4 is: xx.xxx.xxx.1xx
Your IPv6 is: Not Detected
Your Local IP is: xxx.xxx.xx.x
Location: Podgorica, 16 ME
ISP: Telenor d.o.o.

Your Public IPv4 is: xx.xxx.xxx.xx4
Your IPv6 is: Not Detected
Your Local IP is: xxx.xxx.xx.x
Location: Danilovgrad, 07 ME
ISP: Telenor d.o.o.

I really need your response!
With respect,
Lana

P.s. Herceg Novi, Podgorica and Danilovgrad are three different towns in Montenegro.

I am not quiet familiar with how internet works in our countries (we all are banana countries) [for others: both Lana and I live in neighbouring countries so we know how messed up our countries are] but I believe all thre devices would eventually end up on the same IP and that is when admins would see that it is the same person or if someone repirted as multi accounts and they looked further into it.

I don't think so Wolfie... at least I am using two different Internet providers.

Like you said it's up to admins to answer I'll gladly read so that i can learn about it. And now you got me interessted aswell with two different internet providers if it is impossible for them to discover that then what pervents me or anyone else from buying 2 numbers from 2 different providers and using each for 1 account. As example I have two phone numbers one is from Bosnia and Herzegovina other is from Croatia. Granted someone will say it us too expebsive not really if you have steady work two numbers aren't expensive to keep especially because you can always take cheapest package

There are infinite ways one could log in via alternate IP addresses. I think this is only a small factor in what admin uses to determine If a player is unique. Basically admin telling you exactly the criteria they use to screen players, would provide a road map to skirting around it.

Interesting that actually spurs a question where different family members are playing the game

True but this question and lanas examples can show admins 1 route that they maybe forgot which will result in patching it up and removing cheaters

I play the game with my brother, and we have been suspected of multi accounting

Like wise there are many instances in which unique players may show up on the same IP address.

Family members is one, coworkers, people in an apartment complex, dormitory, the guy parked outside my office that is stealing my wifi.

You do realize, this is implying that you don't trust admin to know what they are doing.
