    I know that i'm not allowed to use multiple accounts on the server. but to be honest, i have no idea what a jkloring is.

    so if i bought a new MC account, is it possible to make a deal with the supermods, where my jkloring account is banned so that i'm free to use my new account, without risking IP ban, for multiple accounts?
    thanks

    Yes, we could ban your current account when you get a new account.

    Your Resident status probably would not get switched over, though. And if you would want your money on another account, you'd have to be lucky to find someone trustworthy to give it back.

    Why aren't people allowed to have multiple accounts?

    Multiple Accounts

    Double accounts are not tolerated on this server. If you are caught using two or more Minecraft accounts to benefit you, all accounts will be banned and you will lose the ability to play on the EcoCityCraft server permanently.


    that is the wording of the rules, the way I see it, it does not mention IPs it mentions using two accounts to benefit you, like one bidding up on auctions and stuff like that. If both are not logged in at the same time or if you are using one and a friend/sibling/etc using the other what is the issue? I'm not challenging a rule here just stating how I read the rules, with that though if I have myself and my daughter from the same house it should not be an issue in my eyes.

    If I am wrong on this please enlighten my thought process and share the knowledge.

    You will not be banned for multiple accounts just for having the same IP. The main time something like that would happen is if your other account was banned for say, xray. If you were to bypass the ban using another account with the same IP, that account would also be banned.
    This is not to say you won't be banned for multiple accounts otherwise, this is just something I would expect to be most common.

    Having the same IP would never get you banned on it's own. :p I have two siblings that play on this server, and none of us are banned. Heck, not to brag, but one of them is SuperMod, and I used to be a SuperMod myself. xD

    In any case, as long as the staff knows you are trying to change accounts and use a different one, you should be fine, I've done it before myself (Used to use my brothers account.) (Some staff have posted on this thread already, they are aware.) and if you have a sibling/friend/family that plays on the server, you'll be fine. Only really a problem when the other account is used to bypass a ban/benefit you (Like having an account AFK at a farm to grow it and another to go mining, etc. (Not to say you'd get banned for it immediately just for trying something like that with a sibling, but still.))

    Only time something is ever IP based with bans is if it's clear that the multi-accounter doesn't have family or friends playing from the same IP. IP is very rarely used to check for multiple accounts; often people just make a new account with one letter or number different, or even say it's a second account to avoid a ban or unfairly profit from something.

    And D0rc is very right; he's been on another account before that one, on this server. So have I; I was on the same one, actually. :b We both used (and even BLTwitch, our little sister) our older bro's account until we could buy our own accounts. Long as you make it known you are switching to another account and you no longer use the old one, you will be fine.

    Thanks, very helpful and complete response.
    I wouldn't be worried about my resident status, 15k isn't too hard to get. and my money? haha.. what money. I would just have to visit by my mayors and tell them what was happening first.

    thanks.
