Does your forum/website allow users to create multiple accounts? If so, what do you allow their usage for?

My site does not allow users to create multiple accounts, unless a sibling wants to join under the same IP.

Unless it is created to avoid a ban or suspension, or for trolling etc. we do not monitor multiple accounts, we have better things to do.

We allow multiple accounts unless they are used to harass someone. We actually have some pretty funny and creative aliases on our site.

No, members are allowed to have one account.

agree with Marco.

also, if ur searching via cookie based, be sure it truly is the same person if ur banning outright, ie a public computer

rare, but possible.

I allow multiple accounts as well at my forum. That is if they aren''t used for the reasons stated above by Marco.

So, there's a mixed consensus.

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