spamming reports wont do anything but get the spammer banned unless the person they are reporting is actually doing something wrong. If the person is doing nothing wrong they have nothing to worry about ---

The mittani got his punishment for that, and yes maybe if he wasn’t such a high profile player he would even have been perma-banned. If he would do such a thing today he would clearly would be. It’s also a bit funny that a guy who makes a forum alt just to troll so his main will not get banned for his behaviour would moan about that… A bit hypocritical if you ask me ---

I find it more funny with the new changes alts wont save their main anymore because all accounts ever logged in with that IP also get banned according to the new polices ---

It’s a player ban not an IP ban, that means if they figure out who you are on a new account you get banned again. ---

> [@OR-6\_Ashley\_Frost](#): > > you realize in any other game for this same thing you would be permanently banned? Not even just games, go broadcast on twitch and try dropping the F word. You will be banned. I could care less if you think it is alright, go read the TOS it is in there and a violation of the TOS. Your personal opinion on if you think it is ok or not isn’t valid. It was already decided without your opinion that it isn’t ok and a bannable offense Behold your future, EvE. 😢 ---

“When individuals are removed from the community for breach of this policy, they are removed on a user, not an account basis. This means that any game accounts created by or associated with the individual will be permanently banned and if any new accounts are created, these will treat the same.” ---

I mean that’s how they identify new accounts made, is by matching the IP and MAC address so I would call it an IP ban. They aren’t waiting for your new account to do something wrong, it simply states any new accounts made will also be banned, that is an IP ban ---

semantics different words for the same meaning. An account ban means you can make a new account, an IP ban or sticky ban as you call it means all accounts made by you will be banned as well. ---

They may use that as one of many factors to identify such a player yes. But that does not mean they ban the IP. An IP ban is when they block a certain IP directly, but since they are often dynamic or providers NAT all their customers behind a single IP that is completely impractical. It’s a player ban, not an IP ban. ---

I digress, irregardless my point was them making alts won’t protect their mains from being banned. ---

The best method to identify them was probably the credit card. Since alpha that is probably no longer the case. But if they figure them out by whatever means they are gone yes. ---
