Multiple Account Registration Prevention · **Released**: 09-18-2006

*Note* This requires the Multiple Account Login Detector (AE Detector) in order to function. Big thanks to MPDev for the AE Detector hack, I have used/modified his code for use in parts of this mod (with permission).

*Note 2* My forum's servers are driving me nuts right now, big load times, etc and I'm about to cut myself from waiting for a page to load - so I haven't thoroughly tested all the new goodies I've added. If you find that something doesn't work please let me know.

Description
When an user registers, this plugin checks for the cookie that the AE Detector sets, if it exists, then this plugin will move the user to a specified usergroup (default is to the (COPPA) Users Awaiting Moderation usergroup). This will now check the user's IP address upon registration, and if it matches any others, it will place them in the Multiple Account (MA) usergroup . Also you have the option to ban the new account if the old account was banned.

You can turn the new features on/off accordingly in the settings area.

Hi I installed the hack in 3.7

If I have a user that has logged in and then he is making a new registration then the hack it's catching him.

But ..

One user has registered into my forum at 16:00 (lets say) from IP address 11.111.111.111 (of course it is not the real IP). After 30 minutes he is registering again with different username/mail but from the same IP. Shouldnt be captured by the hack ??

Thanks,

John B.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
