Multiple ID complaint abuse

[Isabaellchen]

It is possible to create multiple IDs, then connect via "Connections > Connect" in a new tab and choose a different ID for each tab. That way you can abuse the complaint system.

That is why most public server restrict the permissions that can complain to normal group or some other non-default server group.

The whole Server/client system is build of using an UID as an useraccount.
But Screech is write. We also do not use it, because it got abused and there was nothign then dump in our complaints.

Well then, what is the use of connecting to one server from the same client with two different identities other then griefing complaints or bypassing an ID ban, and why don't you consider changing this behavior, e.g. by storing the actions (being banned, complaining) on the client side.
You can't prevent this behavior completely but you can make it harder to bypass the system

[Screech]

Not really the answer it would take one troller with a little bit of thought to work around it and then right a script for his/her friends to reset that info. The best answer is the one that they can't really use due to privacy concerns, that being that the client passes a hash of local hardware ID or something to the server when it connects and that is used in addition to the UID. But that will not happen due to privacy concerns.

It also can get abused, when a group of users are doing it.
There are enough virtual friends runnign around on servers to cause trouble. This is a rude missbehavior, but we can't handle that.
