Quite a few new posts. Let's see...

Maybe as a hardcoded option in a file, so if you really want to activate it, it is not easily accessable through the options



For me not. As Stated. Account X and Y are already banned for being shared accounts. Yesterday someone logged into both accounts with the same IP and browser and the System did NOT inform me about that.
About the detectiontype... in our test the text was missing, now on a real one it showed the detection very well


If you directly deny a registration they'll figure more fast, that they should do this. If you let them register and instantly ban them, they don't fiddle around much. Don't know why but it works better that way
Well, I hate to be "that guy," but yes, money always helps, and I would work on a feature with much higher priority if I'm getting paid to do so.

The reason why it wouldn't have reported the a multiple account is that it only reports NEW detections. That means that if someone creates a duplicate account, and it catches it, you'll get a report about it, but if they keep login in to those two accounts, you won't get another report since it already notified you about the multiple accounts. You know?

No, I didn't notice your edit. Those are some good suggestions, mate. I'll see what I can do with future versions (it might not all come at once).

Well, the AE Detector does not support IP address checks and it does not have checks for registration. It also uses slower code. My modification is, in my honest opinion, a big step up. MPDev did a fine job, but he/she hasn't worked on that modification in a long time. Lastly, the AE Detector is not as feature-rich and well-documented as my modification. If all you want is reports about cookie/IP linked accounts, then you can use my modification and enable Silent Mode.

Yes, you can disable the IP address checks within the settings (found in the AdminCP).


Also, thank you, Muffin Man (BlueNinjaGo) for the support to others
