In case you haven't ventured out of OOT in a while, the gimmick accounts are breeding in other forums as well.

What do you think 2+2 should do, if anything?

I ran some message boards for a while. I would be checking IP's of all these new signups. We once had a guy create over 100 accounts from one IP. We held moderator elections so I think he was trying to rig them. I banned them all and blocked the IP. The guy must have spend hours creating unique e-mails for all of them. Eventually he just gave up trying to disrupt the forum.

But 2+2 is a little different. The moderators here try to be a little more liberal (we tried to have a real names and one account per person policy as much as possible). Should just being unfunny a criteria for banning? And who decides it?
