During my time on CW, I've came across two players who simply troll IS defenders. It hurts both the newer folks wanting to try CW and it ruins the experience for everyone who just wants to have fun with the game, even if it is a 12 man vs randoms. These two specific players have deleted their accounts and would remake them to specifically troll and TK. So far the names are usually similar. (I TK Steiner -insert colorful word-) and (Bumper -insert colorful word.) We've always reported these players but they seem to come back in some form or another.

So in regards to banning players, is the system set to ban their IP address? Or just delete the account and hope they don't come back?

sounds like cross unit espionage to me

I would assume it is, that or players who simply hated the game and just want to ruin it for everyone else. If it's cross unit, I don't support it and I would hope everyone feels the same way. They're some of the worst kind of players and I would like to see them removed immediately.

IP bans in this day and age just don't work there's too many ways of getting around it, the only sure way is banning their MAC address but even that can be spoofed if you're determined enough to work around the block.

Multiple accounts are inherently the weak point of any MMO, much more so for F2P titles. When and if CW becomes an immersive and important part of the broad playerbase, expect these problems to grow worse.

Heck, my router can use any MAC address I give it.
