this is impossible. you cant be limited by ip adress. most likely if your pc can hold up two clients at once . multiple computers are issue . ip can be changed to bypass the limit therefore is no way to stop that from coming

Uhh- I'm not sure if you're aware of this but; Botting and ISBoxer IS banned.. It was banned a couple Years ago. These people using 8-12 alts that just happen to be in dreads? They manually control every single client individually. It's fairly hard work actually, especially in subcaps...

Now, If you have a problem with those individual characters or the person they belong too- I suggest you speak with them about it or CCP themselves; not complain about the very fact that people can have Alts.






tl;dr

Git Good

Get yourself an alt or two.

Those 30 dreads are either buying plex (which gives ccp 19.95 each) or paying 14.95 a month. Now why would they block all that income?? Remember games are a bussiness, and like any bussiness the goal is to make moneyz.

Technically, ISBoxer was not banned. Parts of ISBoxer can still be used, just nothing that allows controlling multiple ships at from one keyboard (broadcasting the same command across multiple clients).

First, limiting clients per IP address, bad idea. Some people have more than one person playing EVE (I have three people including a couple alt accounts).
Second, any limitation on the number of accounts per IP is arbitrary.

Last: if you think someone is broadcasting or multiplexing control of numerous clients you are better off reporting them to CCP.

Cloaking is the closest thing to a "Pause Game" button one can get while in space.

i run 9 accounts, all manually.
because of this i easily make mistakes, leading to content for people...

so you want to remove yet more content?

You are forgetting all the people behind firewall (NAT) and in some rare cases some ISPs are doing its own NAT network, so many users connect via single/same IP.

You should have gone with your LiveJournal account, right after the post whinging about that female friend who won't sleep with you no matter how many times her boyfriend disappoints her.
