I was reading what has been added lately and noticed this.
(Automatically approve new users, even if ip already existing)

May I ask why this was added and isnt this just opening the door to abuse of the game.
Espeacially when there may be changes to the transfer market to make it a more open bidding system. It seems like a bad thing to me making it easier for someone to make 2,3,4 teams of there own.

Because IP addresses are far from unique!

ISPs recycle them.

Yes, and it was not forbidden in the past. Forbidden is to transfer money in this case between your both teams, and this restriction is still there. the change is only to make the player approval faster and less complicating

Really wasn't? I remember there was voting if RZA should stay with one manager - one team rule and voting ended with more supporting option to stay with this rule to avoid having testing teams.
I understood one manager - one team also means one computer - one team.

OK. I thought so, because it isn't possible to check if one manager hasn't couple of teams as there is couple of them on same IP address.
If so, then we recently got new(future) rival.
