I'm sorry, but I haven't read that fake accounts are against MOBAFire's rules in the TOS or Private Policies. I don't know what you're talking about...

fake accounts are also against Mobafire's rules.


I think you mean newly made accounts from same users on the forums.

I tried reporting some troll voters, but Matt claimed that they all had different IP from any other users on the forums.

In conclusion, troll voters aren't making new accounts to downvote you, but they are asking their friends to do so for them. (Or logged in at a friend's house to do so, or went to their school's computer, or went to an internet café, or etc.)

You're only supposed to have one account per person, and the system won't let you have more than one account per IP. If you sign up for another account on a friend's computer or use a program to change your IP to make another account that is against the rules.

General Rules and Guidelines: "Each member is expected to vote in good faith and without bias casting a single vote on any active build on the site. Working around site fail safes, bribing, falsifying or otherwise "fixing" voting on any build, comment, champion or other content is strictly forbidden. You get 1 vote and 1 vote only, use it wisely"

So if you create multiple accounts to vote more than once, you are breaking the rules!
Thanks to GrandMasterD for my sig!

I thought it was okay to make multiple accounts as long as you only voted with one?

Pretty sure the IP block is only on voting. You can make 5 accounts on the same computer, but after you vote once on a guide, the other accounts are blocked from voting on it.

Isn't that how it works?

Either way it's not hard to get around. Go to a proxy site. Win.

Yeah except how are they going to know it's you voting if the IP address points to some China country or something? They ban your proxy account, okay, go use another proxy. People have been doing this sht for years on forums to avoid IP bans.

Like someone said above, the person that has that much time to do all that just to downvote/trollvote your guide, ... really, no life.

General message: If you are one of the trollvoters or downvoters who ask their friends to downvote a guide (revenge vote, to decrease their guides to make yours higher), or one of the guys who go around the IP with proxies and whatnot to get your guide higher, you, sir or madam, are the one that's completely nuts.
