If having an alt-account falls within the rules, some members will definitely use that opportunity for any purpose they deem appropriate but having one account per IP will not work as there are many members here that either a VPN or Tor (or both).

We all know the forum has become a magnet for account farmers that want to enrol as many of their accounts as possible across as many signature campaigns as possible in order to maximise their income and there is not much that can be done to counter that.

Though to some varying degree they suffered setbacks after some of their accounts or activities were exposed, as a community we did not get to root of the account farmers that controlled the figmentofmyass and borovichok accounts respectively. I am sure many account farmers operating on an industrial scale are replacing their tagged accounts as soon as possible in their attempt to maximise their income potential. It is something that will not go away until/unless something drastic changes.
