I plan to move within 6 months, and since I get the pleasure of seeing traders get banned for IP changes, I'm wondering how I should do this. I'm on maybe 10 trackers, so I was thinking of writing in my profile, Moving within 6 months. I'm wondering if those disables are instant on IP range change if so I'd have to go to IRC and talk to an admin anyways.
Just check with the individual sites.... Most of them don't even care. And since all of your other info is the same, ie email, log in stuff etc, you can easily prove that its you.
trackers dont ban u for an ip change but may if you are moving from one country to other than it may be a problem
I don't want to give too many details here, but I'm moving just a few states away within the United States. E-mail, login, password = all the same.
id say just talk to the staff of each tracker. they should understand. some dont care about ip change and some are really strict, so be careful.
some trackers like bitmetv are very strict about ip changes. but they are very few in no. just go to the irc channel and tell them in advance. if they have auto disable scripts for ip changes, the admins will surely reenable you. play safe - inform in advance
dont worry about it bro. 1 ip change in 6 months is nothin
Aye... I wouldn't worry too much about it. Just as long as you don't go changing your email and password along with the IP change everything should be fine. :P
If you still feel uncomfortable though, or if you think the staff is really strict, then talk with them in IRC.
I just hope you don't cancel your moving because of torrent sites :P
no i wouldn't advise doing that lol that would make u kind of addicted :DQuote:

You have nothing to worry about. I have logged in to all of my accounts from different ips, including from other countries and have never had any problems. No site bans you because of an ip change.
Not strictly true.Quote:

Don't be too confident that sites don't take any notice of ISP and country changes, that's all I'm saying.
i don't know squizzle. sure they take notice, but i change my IP every 2 weeks at longest for http(s) and for seeding the ip changes every 48 hours at longest. not only do they change but they change countries. it is a proxied setup. not once have i had a problem on any of the bt sites i'm on. other forums of piracy.. that is a different story.
Well no site im a member of, including wheelmods, has ever banned me. Which strongly suggests every decent site will look for more than just an ip change before labelling an account as being traded.Quote:

i see that you have been banned so this response is moot, but for those of you who don't know, most sites don't care about an IP address change (i asked this a few months ago when moving in to my dorm), they only notice if there is an IP change accompanied by email address change and/or password change, suggesting that the account was traded. hope this helpsQuote:
