A lot of people make double accounts instead of using Change Name because that's what they're used to. Did you PM him already?
I'm not even sure if JMoney is still active here anyway.
If he is stupid enough to ignore the rules instead of buying the name change he shall get his ass kicked. I think.

*Syphon(MM) smells pwnage. Why don't we let DEAD respond before we go talking about "hypocracy" and "pwnage"...
Someone with fourteen sixteen extra accounts has no business doing any accusations.
*calls court to convene*
Especially considering you use your accounts to rig polls, such as the OSMAP one. I think some punishment is in order.

DEAD is officially on leave from Staff pending a full hearing.
This is what made me jump:
I was getting tired of him here anyway.
Hm, smashy smashy.
DT... maybe we should start random screenings, like 10 members a day or something. I can make a script to generate 10 random member names if you want.
How will double account punishments be determined? Are you going to punish all double accounts, or just those that have preformed malicious actions?
For example, scwizard and Doodle77(MM) are brothers, so they use the same computer. They have the same IP address, but that's not a double account. Upon finding a double account, how will you determine between these cases?
We'll have to keep a list of the exceptions. I'll demonstrate the punishment in chart form...
Lightest Punishment
Confessed
Confessed, malacious actions
Not confessed
Not confessed, and malacious actions
Heaviest Punishment
I believe I have a double account from the last time we were hacked and no one felt like unsuspending me for 2 weeks. I used it to prod IP about unsuspending my account, and after that resetting my password because the one I changed it to was too long and caused errors when I tried to view SeN.
.....Come to think of it, I think I had to use a proxy to access SeN because my accoutn being logged in gave me a database error.
Also, my brother is thinking about registering, so if you see a MattMan236 on the same IP as me, NO BAN KTHXBAI!
My IP changes twice daily now, anyways. Ask Pie.Alright. I confess. DT bribed me minerals for sex.
And he created all those accounts on my birthday too! /endrant
I agree with the course of actions taken on a 100%. Such inmediate action on a large problem, especially on a Staff member, has a very good side effect. This is a big warning to everyone telling them that no one is left aside from rule breaking, you break it, you buy it, in this case it was IP banning.
Looking at the times the accounts were created, I would track the IP Addresses of all new accounts, same address creating an account every 30 seconds or so can only mean one thing.
On the brothers scenario. If you have a relatively low number of accounts, both which are active and such, just ask both accounts separately about the situation.
