well, in most good routers, u can clone a mac address, meaning each time u want, u change your IP.
my d-link does that, it's so comfortable.

Take the bloody invite! I really doubt you will get banned. Just say you moved. This is a rare chance, and worst case scenario you'll get banned and be back to where you are now.

To give the scenario, my friend does not need his account any more. He got a warning letter from his ISP for doing some 'questionable things' and wants out of torrents completely. He said i can have his account.

what do you say?

accounts are for your personal use. one account in a lifetime per person.

those are the rules.

bitmetv doesn't care if you friend trades the account or gives it to you for free. they don't care wether his computer exploded or he has a new girlfriend or problems with his isp.

your scenario doesn't play a role.

it's against their rules that an account changes hands. if the ip range changes, it will most likely be disabled.

tell your "friend" to delete his account and look out for an invite.

you are not stupid. you will find one.

Eh, rules are meant to be broken. One wouldn't be into torrenting if they followed every rule out there (copyright laws). Take the account and enjoy it.

Let the account rest for a couple of days with no activity and then login.

I think he's over reacting, but thats his business.

He does, apparently. Assuming that the IP is dynamic, there is no way to prove his "guiltiness".

Wrong, I worked at an isp, we kept logs of which user had which ip @ what time. The logs went back several months, not sure right now exactly how long, could be a year. Having a dynamic ip doesn't help you.

Keep it foolish.

Seriously though, that was a bad move, I hope you see that.

Hrm, I don't see where I stated that I was going to throw the account away?
And yes I know it was a bad move, I wrote that I regretted it, didn't I?...
