Hello,

my problem is even if I reset the Mac address and the ip adress before every new log in my accounts get banned after a short time (still using same computer). Is it possible that they hidden something at my computer or is it maybe cause i use senseless emailadresses like brhbsgsgdg@trash-mail.com or gwerhgewsghe@wegwerfeemail.de. But when i didnt ever done something forbidden with the acc (some never logged in and were banned) how could they control this?

i just forum searched for ban and found out that its possible that they look into my cache by registering accounts. But what i still dont understand is the point if its possible that I get worse chances to stay a character unbanned with a "trashmailhoster".

Well, we know they can easily lookup to see what IP accounts were registered from. If you registered several of them under the same IP, that is an easy tip-off. It isn't confirmed whether or not they actually use your MAC address, a serial number from a specific piece of hardware (most often this is CPU or hard drive from most games I have seen that dot his), or a hash of a number of different of pieces of information (hardware serial numbers, Windows product keys, etc.), so changing your MAC isn't guaranteed. You also need to be aware that if you change your IP and MAC, then login with all of your clients again, they will still all be sharing that same IP and MAC (maybe it has changed since last session, but they will be using the new, but same, information). This would only be effective if you are running one client at a time and renewing IP and MAC after each new session with different characters.

Didn't I read somewhere that they might ban new account where the user creates 8 level 1 characters? Maybe you're just not using the account like a real player.

ive tested this myself. frogster now automatically bans you if you generate more than 3 accounts on the same I.P. within 48 hours. UNLESS you have an account that's existed on that I.P. for an extended period of time, which then raises the limit to 5 accounts in 24 hours.
