From the same IP, different accounts?

    I know that IPs are tracked, and you can get banned for multiple accounts...

    But here's a question...

    I'm thinking about moving from my apartment, and sharing a house with a buddy... I've been trying to get him to take a more active role in getting traffic to his website, so he's got an account here... If I do move, and we share his connection, will we be banned? I've heard there are others here, like siblings, that both have accounts, do they need special permission?

    Thanks

    I have a doup account mod for my vbulletin and it does more than just look at your IP. My members are fine as long as they use different computers. I assume DP might run something similar to catch people with more than one account.
