Just curious to what efforts are done on the back end to ferret out multis.

Everything and anything you can imagine is done. We've a number of strong arms we send out on special cases also.

they wont tel you exactly...or people will work out was around it.

I doubt auto-banning based on IP logs would be useful since there are often more than one account per household.
However, it's used to investigate suspected multis, but mutual IP's aren't enough alone to prove a multi.

auto-banning multiple accounts on the same IP would be silly. But, it would be an indicator to check out the play of the accounts.

I was wondering because I think when I am at the office there is a single outgoing IP addy that would show up for like 4 people that I have hooked on the game now in the past few weeks. I was just wondering because I didn't want my account locked or whatever without any heads up. So far, we haven't played together (their n00bs), and I don't know if we ever will.

There are many other ways to determine who is who.
Don't worry about it.
Anyway, if you do get busted for some reason, just send an appeal explaining how it is and it'll fix everything.
