I see from the sticky in "Random Banter" that having multiple accounts is a no-no.

Is it easy to tell if someone has taking-the-piss-or-not-wanting-to-lose-karma multiple accounts or there are genuinely 2 people using the same pc to log onto BCF?

Just asking as my other half drives me demented trying to read over my shoulder and offering responses to posts. I'd prefer him to log on himself when he wants to talk to you lot but now he's using my account losing karma as an excuse not to! Rolling Eyes

(I think really he's just a bit scared of you......... Wink )

There is no way of knowing who is using the pc at the time, only the ip number is logged.
The mods can only trust that you or your other half will not use each others accounts to flame other members.

Don't worry, we often have serveral people posting from the same connection here (infact sure we've had cases where there's been 5 people accessing BCF at the same time).

It's generally obvious if someone's using a second account in the way described for neferious purposes, so don't worry about it Thumbs Up.
