IdeaStorm, a few if not a ton of your members are double dipping accounts to push their agenda at the cost of your perception. Require unique e-mail registration e-mail address's and require e-mail verification prior to letting them login. Also, IP track them like you attempt to do with Google-Analytics and any dupe accounts should be removed and everything associated with it. You have the resources now use them.

DELL/ Status Update
We now require email verification for new users prior to letting them log-in. We also added a function for existing users to update or change the email address they registered with.

    But they didn't delete his account so he is able to "ballot stuff" as dell_admin1 likes to say. Since they are cracking down they need to do it universally. Who's idea was that again. :)

    I'm not worried about .chris's alter-egos because he's not being as rude to people now. He's not doing any harm.

    Well that is up to her so I can't do much, 3 is a win so far for me and my idea's cause, she deleted my remove the dot dude from here so can't add to that bashing. Don't worry we'll get him, I've sent out probes but he's starting to get smart and not bite, which is actually a good thing overall. I guess banning has worked if he does not take the bait.

    Doesn't matter a ban is a ban and she knows its him because davmcn told her so. That and she alluded to it. I wonder what the other 2 accounts were and how they decided they were dupes? I also can't wait to see how she squirms out of the TOU saying 1 account per valid email address.

    I guess its not really a double dipper since the dot account is locked? Maybe a slip up of the TOU's?

    No they seem to still be around as is .chris' alter ego. Why didn't they do anything about that account?

    I would have to agree on possible dupe accounts, the way some people act and type.

    A sock puppet would be a fake account being controlled by someone else.

    I think you are onto something there. jorge has a chip on his shoulder about this duplicate account issue. Perhaps he defrauded out of his school lunch by an impostor.
