Only one account per IP

[Vodge]

Habbo have made this drastic update to combat bots (which can be worked around anyway).

So, if you have more then one computer, you and your brother/sister/friend etc can't log in on the other computer if you are logged in, unless you use another internet connection.

lmao, that's pathetic.

[Hazza]

LOL
Thats quite funny.
I can see a lot of brothers/sisters fighting pathetically over who gets on Habbo first. :P
Ahh, that amused me for a moment.

[Accipiter]

use a different browser?

[Hazza]

use a different browser?
They are saying you can't log on with two computers under the same internet connection, let alone browsers.

[dannyboymed]

One person per IP.

Argh.. stupid update..

[J0SH]

Seems it's fake? I doubt Sulake would put habbo instead of Habbo.

It's a moderator, not Sulake.

And I tried it myself. As soon as I signed in to my second account, my first one disconnected.

oh yes, because when moderators answer your chf's they obviously check all habbo's that they write out to make sure they have a capital H LOL

use some sense!

They're still hired as staff and are meant to be professional at their job, whoever responded to that lacks any grammar or proper English, it's an edit. Why would they restrict it to one account at a time, when two could be on at one time both purchasing credits. :S

[Hazza]

most mods type like this because they get so many cfhs

Moderators lack everything in the real world its like working on a shopping tills.

I just told you. They already have restricted it. I just tried it.

Mods have always talked like that. I doubt it's an edit.

they dont have to have correct punctuation all the time :eusa_eh:

Yes, I spent my time making a stupid edit to prove something that people can check themselves?

They probably replied to me cos I was first to ask, as I was on 2 computers when I started getting disconnected.

Wow.

And if you read the thread, they did it to stop bots.

[dannyboymed]

Why? Were bots really damaging Habbo? :o

[TopManTim]

Yeah it disconnected me as soon as second account logged on.


>;(

[J0SH]

It's probably till they patch this programme going round that allows one user to control like 15 bots, they trapped me in a room yesterday, they'll eventually take the 'block' off.

[Judge Judy]

Ahh that's why I keep getting errored everytime I log on to two accounts.

[Vodge]

Message says they might let you have 2 accounts logged on, still sucks though.

[Tintinnabulate]

Seems it's fake? I doubt Sulake would put habbo instead of Habbo.

The replies I get from moderators now dont even use proper grammar so I wouldn't be surprised if thats real.

[The Cullens]

One person per IP.

Argh.. stupid update..

change your IP. i think that might work:S

[Vodge]

Kinetic, it won't work.

2 accounts logged on with same IP d/c the first one.

[J0SH]

Would a proxy work?

[user130523]

ROFL,
I have over 20 habbo accounts (NOT BOTS!)
;]

[Bren]

OMG NO WAY

and im gonna try this

[MrGazet]

what? god tht sucks sersly

[Yoshimitsui]

I doubt it! Surely that would decrease their profits?

[Nereo]

I just tried it, it's true. Thats just stupid tbh. Another stupid move from Habbo.

[Bren]

I thought it worked then it d/c as the other got to HV :(

[Boxiel]

Absolutely pathetic...

Maybe changing your shockwave ID/delete current settings before you log into your other account may work..

[Javascrypt]

LOL
Thats quite funny.
I can see a lot of brothers/sisters fighting pathetically over who gets on Habbo first. :P
Ahh, that amused me for a moment.

I must lol as i doubt anybody else plays habbo connected to my internet.

[Hated]

Omg what am i suposed to do now with my 27 other accounts

[efq]

I saw on a Habbo Scripting site yesterday that someone had made over 800 Habbo Accounts in a hour for the scripting bot program... The list was massive and I tried a account and it worked + activated.

[Ardemax]

My mate came over, we both tried to get on, one of us kept disconnecting so we had to take turns.
i don't think habbo have thought this through.

[Boxiel]

Does that attack correspond with the restriction of 1 machine per IP?

[efq]

The accounts we're made for the bots on the program, therefor, the accounts we're being used on the program much easier... so bot raids.

[Toom.]

omg
is that why i keep d.cing
and so does my brother :o
they better change it!!!!

[Mathew]

You mean to say Habbo have said something which is true? I didn't think it would d/c me but yes.. it did.
That is stupid tbh, I have two accounts logged in at the same time quite often. Would be nice to have 2 on.. thanks. :)

----
Just thought about this, it's not really fair. If there are two brothers that want to play Habbo together, they could be PAYING members to support Habbo. Fine if Habbo was a free game, they can make the rules, but if their users are paying to play, then they need to edit this rule slightly.

[N-Dubz]

i can picture people crying about this...

[Kardan]

What about office staff? I assume a staff badge gets past this rule?

[scottish]

proxy ftw.

[luce]

Ugh. So when i do actually go on habbo and my brother is on one of us will d.c ew :@

[Melsia]

LOL

My sister's gonna kill me! Shes spent nearly as much on habbo as me D=

[Middlesbrough]

Use a proxy.

[Boxiel]

Staff log in via housekeeping, I'm guessing it'll be a different setting..

[Barmi]

Awkward.

Is it not possible instead to rely on Shockwave ID, as opposed to IP address? I'm surprised they have been unable to find a more elegant way around their 'bot problem'.

[Sulai]

hmmmm well probably true, should stop all the bot problems..

[FiiR3]

http://img370.imageshack.us/img370/466/kkbz7.png

Well the image states that: "it will probably be reviewed tomorrow and they might let 2 on at a time."

I Reckon it's more than likely that they will change it to 2 Accounts per IP, they know there are tons of cases where more than one person uses Habbo in the same house.

[SugarBabyRach]

Thank God my sister is too obsessed with paints to go on habbo. But I highly suspect that they will change the rule to two accounts per IP adress surely?

[Purple]

Many mods do not use capital letters and sometimes not even periods or such. Don't know where you been because it's rare I get a reply to a CFH in perfect English.

[Art]

I think its a good idea :x I wouldnt call it 'pathetic' (lol?).

[Ardemax]

hmm, hopefully it will be fixed by today :)

[le harry]

dAMN HABBO. ALWAYS SCAMMONG ME AND CORRUPT ND FAT :@

[tm]

They should change it to 2 per computer. It would sort the bot problem out and would mean no inconvinience for the rest of us - moving furni between accounts etc.

I'm sure enough people will have already complained since so many siblings use Habbo at the same time normally on the same network connection.

I knew a family where 4 of them played Habbo (normal social people), 3 brothers and 1 sister lol, sometimes they where all online at once (different computers, they where rich had like a 10 bedroom house).

Would have screwed them up lol.

[e5]

It will save lag i guess

[LoveToStack]

Why don't they just restrict it to one acc online per Machine ID rather than internet connection, that way siblings should be able to play :S

[shizzle]

This will stop the bot raiding programs, people who bait in SS (Hellspencer), etc lol.

I dont mean to be rude but you arent very smart are you, Habbo users are at a peak high, a handful of moderators knocking about the hotel and you want them to address them all with capital letters? If they dont the users will complain about lack of professionalism and punctuation? :s

It seems normal to have one user from each IP they always used to talk about how if someone else from the same ip caused trouble and got a perm ban then anyone else on the same ip would be reviewed.

[TAYLOOOOR1]

Lol i am lucky my siblings don't ply Habbo (: z

[Ardemax]

hmm, anyone know if this is working?

In the time that I've been playing I've seen much worse than just forgetting to put a capital H on Habbo. Like someone else already said, yes, this new feature is in place and has been put there in order to reduce scripting and combat bots.

[ElliottThompson]

proxy's plz?

cloak your ip plz?

it wern't very hard to avoid tbh

[Tintinnabulate]

I just managed to get on 2 accounts using the same IP?
One on IE and one of Firefox ...

http://img150.imageshack.us/img150/5442/proofyk1.gif (http://imageshack.us)

[camera]

I did too.

[Vodge]

Well I posted that a while ago, they said they might change it to 2 accounts per IP, looks like they did...

[camera]

Somebody should try 3 at a time (:

[tm]

They've changed it now.

My mate came on 3 accounts and it worked fine. No idea what the new limit is if there is one at all.

[dannyboymed]

Pretty sure there isn't one now. Hmm.

[Vodge]

Yeah you can bot again they removed it.

[Yonder]

I hope they arent doing this because of multipe accounts causing lag because .es has like 20k+ on a night why dont they just get a server like that.
