Can my office have more then one DP account?

    Users are allowed a single account/username, and multiple accounts will result in all of them being banned.

    I understand but i have more then one staff doing work from home and from my office, same IP or almost same.

    Is that ok i know they want to come and make posts?

    Like to here from a moderator if this is ok?

    Just publicly state who the new user is before they start posting. Many of the people banned for duplicate names are using them to get around thread bumping (by saying something like "This sounds great" to their own offering) or to reset their reputation.

    Its also pretty easy to tell the same person by their style of posting.

    It all depends.

    Shouldn't be a problem if:

    1. Your multiple accounts are not used to bump sales thread by colleagues or show fake sales or false bidding.
    2. Multiple accounts are not used for REP abuse.
    3. Multiple accounts are not used to Abuse iTrader system.

    In most of the cases MODS/Admins can make out if the account is used by the same person or different by their writing style etc.

    You should have created this thread in S&F board for a better/prompt response.

    EDIT: Make sure your employees dont bump your old threads as you were discussing this the other day over here. ;):)

    Yes, you can have more then one account per IP, just as long as none are duplicate accounts used by one person. :)

    One of the employee in my office created a DP account quite some time back but I never allowed her to use this account.:D because I was scared that I may got banned. But all this seems fair. I will just ask her id and will state here that in public that she works in my office and will never try to do things mentioned above.

    :) thanx.

    Yes i know SumitBahl.

    No there will be no bumping and humping here :) My and my staff is just staff and boss. Master and Servants :p

    She is more looking for handsome men and directories

    I will get her to open an account today or tomorrow thanks :)

    You should have created this thread in S&F board for a better/prompt response.

    Whats the S and F board? Has it anything to do with S & M ? :rolleyes:

    Thanks all for helping so quick !

    It's your behaviour that raises the red flag (figuratively) - we don't go trawling for cheats. If you post like normal, sane people we'd never notice :)
