The IP is certainly one piece of the investigation, but there are also legitimate reasons for having multiple IPs (you're on 3G or traveling and being on hot spots). I do block proxies as best I can, too.
Its also suggested by a lot of places for privacy reasons. It was a popular media suggestion after Trump decided to allow ISPs to sell information.
Actually it was Obama that wanted to ISP to sell information in October of 2016 and it was Trump that pulled the plug on it at the end of March 2017
For the record, I am not defending Lellow or his actions, and I'd like to see him permanently banned. I always had a higher opinion of him than the vast majority of everyone else I played against due to how helpful he was to me when I first started, which makes this realization that much more troubling to me. My point is that it is fairly difficult to root out this sort of behavior before it becomes a major league-destroying issue, and I give massive props to jsid for figuring this out. I simply don't want JDB's time to be occupied by tedious investigation when he could be concentrating on furthering this game, which I think is incredibly important to everyone here. If it is possible to program an automated fix to these issues, then go for it, but if not, I'd rather the game advance and we will deal with the cheats as they come.
Just so you know i am using a lot of different ip too ( i dont know how any of this works btw) because i play at home, gf house, friends house, work(i work everywhere in my city), lte network and on and on...
And it's about to get more fun with this next update, because now I'll be going back to actual game-planning instead of 'Oh God, please stop this blitz.'
First off, I never new DarkRogue. That was before my time here.
Secondly, I had a very good rivalry with Lellow. In particular his Buffalo Team in MFN-7 before he left it. He blocked me from back to back Super Bowls (I'm Denver in MFN-7) in games decided by a TD or less each time (the 2nd one I didn't get to Game Plan for, I swear I would have had him!).
So he's good, certainly. But I'm fairly new, and Denver was a train wreck when I took them over... and my H2H vs. Lellow is pretty competitive. So I don't see him as some 'God Mode' Player really, just a guy that gets that one extra break when needed.
I also had a long, drawn out Trade process with Lellow to acquire a Stud LB from a Draft in a huge chain of deals in which I wound up with the 5th, 6th and 7th Players in the same Draft (I Drafted the 7th, traded for the 5th and 6th after they were Drafted). Everything seemed above board and fair.
I've never had an issue with Lellow, and was sad he was leaving MFN-7.

I will say I get excited when I can hold Lellow's teams to less than 500 yes passing. The man is tough to beat. If there is collusion then I hope it's resolved so that we can focus on the fun.
That being said, let's remember this game rocks. I'm still trying to figure most of it out. I've started reading posts like crazy just so I can figure out what's going on w the game. There's a ton I still don't get about the game but that's what makes it fun. We get to experiment to see what works.
What niggles me is that Lellow/Rogue will once again surface with a different username and the wasted time that goes into investigating cheats instead of devoting time to the games development.
Which brings up an urgent need for JDB to assign some forum moderators and maybe a couple of asst. site admins to help him with this kind of **** while he works on the game...
And Rogue HAS surfaced again in cust 21 as lellow and bought one of his old teams back. This after lellow says he's leaving the game. Jsid is suggesting that lellow is trolling, and he may be... but the fact of the matter is that a banned player was allowed to buy a team through one of his outted multis ... and that is a huge load of BS.
