100 percent i didnt. All they have to do is let us back on and look. Serkin said we were on the same PC.So if we come back on and it still looks like that, then there is your answer. I have 2 PC's 2 foot apart going into the same router. Would that look like the same computer? I dont know, but thats what i was told and banned wrongfully for.

Certainly the same IP address. Not sure whether they have access to things like a MAC code (unique code for all electronics these days) or dynamic IP and such data... but if so, they'd be able to see if you're running 2 PCs or 1 PC with 2 windows. If the latter, you're out of luck.

I doubt they just decide to ban without some kind of evidence on the connection side.

Mac codes can be clonned via router to appear the same for all pcs on the same network. Id hope thats not one of their methods of detection.

Well a router has its own MAC code. I'm no techie, but there's nothing to say they can't see the PC MAC codes that are playing EQ, or the dynamic IPs (xx.xx.xx.1 and xx.xx.xx.4 for example).

The point is, they have their detection methods - so the best way to not get caught is to not pull any quick tricks like buffing one account with the other, auto-following, and any other more subtle tell tell signs.

...if duos are unable to do this its a case of first world problems. Auto follow = laziness, buffing each other with only one at the computer is nice, yet unfair on the rest of us who don't have access to that, and there's probably all kinds of signs with poorly timed heals and such stuff.
