Is this considered multi-voting?

    So I have a roomate that I introduced Gamez too and now he's playing. My concern is that he votes for credits just like I do and we both use the same internet connection. If we both vote on this same connection, would either of us get in trouble for multi-voting?

    I don't know, but risking it would mean perma ban so I wouldn't.
    I'd suggest having him vote with his phone.

    Hope someone who knows answers you. Good luck.
    Don't know if it was by IP, or by computer. I'm not sure how it works. D:

    Both IP and account I believe it is still considered Multi Voting since no one can say for sure that it really is a roommate if that was the case any multi voter could say it's their roommate voting.

    as long as one of you guys vote once every 12 hours, it is safe.

    id put it differently

    IF there is an issue, after he voted from his pc, it would say this IP already voted if u try vote on urs. IF it doesnt, then it is safe to vote for both of u

    there is a cookie check on every pc that votes to make sure that PC only votes from 1 IP every 12 hours, meaning even if u changed the IP on the other pc to vote it would not be tagged as multivoting

    the basic rule is this:
    1 account per 1 IP per 12 hours for 1 computer


    so yea if u have 10 computers at home u could vote 10 accounts safely by changing their IP as long as its 1 account from each PC per 12 hours

    note: this is how the automatic multivote protection works, they still dont want u doing this :p

    yes me and my bro had same problem, if you do a Google search On proxy changing you can run you internet settings through diff IP just runs slower cause it is pinging fro one computer to another. you just want to switch back and fourth every time you vote

    manual proxies suck >.> most r slow and unstable. u can use hotspot shield for this, it assigns u a random IP thats fast and stable

    Ya that is kinda what i meant I did not know there was faster way. This was the method I had available to me and my bro at the time when we started. I use hidemyass.com/proxy-list/ you just have to use the same setting every time or you vote will get messed up, so if you know a better way more power to ya :) I might have to try that. TY
