My under standing is that with most online games they ban you by your cd key not you ip address. Example lets say you get banned from battle net for Diablo 2 you have to buy another copy so you have a different cd-key and there for get a new account. You must have been acting like a real ass for some on to take time to ban you.
A lot of online games will suspend or disable your account. Games like DAoC and EQ require a subscription-based account and will squash the account for lude conduct, etc. In these cases you have to buy a new CD and generate a new account.
My 2 cents :)
moo.....I just wanted to add something
sorry :D
Sorry...had to laugh at the response of k900. Changing NIC card to get a new IP address. Nothing personal to k900 at all.
What exactly must one do to get banned from an online game? And how, exactly, did that post make it into a miscellaneous security discussion?
Pardon me while I scratch my head to try to figure that out. But I agree with P2P...take responsibility for your actions and admit your stupidity.
