    My ISP provides dynamic IP address and there are a lot of user of that ISP in my city.

    There must be some users over here from my city.

    A question came in mind if my and someone's IP is matched,will it result in closing the account of both of us.

    I read in General Chat Section that multiple accounts are not allowed.

    Please help.

    Thanks!

    It won't automatically result in a ban. The chances are very remote that you are going to have two unrelated DP users with the same IP, but leaving Itrader, responding to each others posts or posting in the same thread is what will get you banned - bottom line, don't try to put one over on DP by having two accounts and you won't have anything to worry about.

    I would say the mods are more than likely aware of users on dynamic ip's (cant hurt to let them know your using an ISP that uses dynamic IP's though) and because users wont always know what ISP the other is on it's not always going to be possible to avoid posting in eachothers threads/leaving itrader etc, however if you KNOW that a certain user is on your ISP then it's probably better you follow mjewels advice.

    We look at more than just IPs when banning people for multiple accounts. Other than that, follow mjewel's advice.
