    Heres the question I have; My father and I each have our own accounts on here but we use the same IP address to post under. My father is more active on this forum than I am (I only recently came back after getting multiple emails about PM's I received which were spam). I want to make sure that in having my own account on here that I wont put his account at risk of being banned for multiple accounts/usernames if a mod or admin notices the same IP address for two different accounts.
    If this could happen I will not participate in this site so that my father can continue to use this forum without issue.
    If a mod or admin could clarify whether this will be an issue or not, it would be greatly appreciated.

    Here are rules..

    1.) PM a Mod with both usernames. They will create a user note.
    Here is the list of mods.
    http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showgroups.php

    2.) You can't bump each other threads, you can't exchange itraders and rep.

    Obey these rules and there will be no issue.;)

    Thanks.

    Yes it's fine, as linkfinder said only as long as you dont post in eachothers threads or exchange itraders, as long as you let the mods know.

    As everyone else states, PM any online mod, u can see who's online here: http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showgroups.php and tell both the usernames and the reason, a note will be added to ur account so mods can know...

    To stay safe, don't participate in each others thread, don'e exchange reps and itraders...
