  ArrVeeAussie:

  The subsequent accounts were all closed due to harassment and abuse, which I am STILL enduring, but persevering with.

  i'm surprised harassers & abusers have managed to keep a track on how to find what userame you use. :)

  just use the "block player" option,,,,,problem solved.

  I dare say there'll be stalkers / pervs etc harrassing female members on here and when they get found out....they need only hit the restart option and hide behind another username until that account gets well known too.

  It's easy to see multi accounters who play this game to cheat others out of credits and prizes....but more difficult seeing the ones who use their accounts for no other purpose other than to stalk, perv or harass female players using this site.

  You've just hit another big nail on the head there tbe

  I am just curious..How are you able to determine that someone has multiple accounts..?

  By tracking their I.P. address, which is so unfair if you have other family members playing from the same P.C or I.S.P.

  wgt could not possibly rely solely on IP address detection as there's ways to circumvent an IP address from being detected, An I don't think wgt would close an account purely because of it's IP address being used by more than one player in the household or workplace

  ArVeeAussie... your explanation does help to explain the restart and I understand you want to be anonymous again if someone is harassing you.  My only issue is the credits you have won on your way back to TM.  You have to admit that those credits could have been potentially won from a player that has not restarted and has been struggling with the learning curve that makes WGT great.

  That being said.... I'm done with this thread.  WGT just needs to rethink their policy about restarted accounts and playing credit play until they reach the level they had reached prior to the restart.

  Enjoy the game everyone

  There's probably even some female players hassling guys too but I suppose that's something else to think about.

  I get harassed by female WGT'ers all the time, though, considering my Brad Pitt looks and George Clooney charisma, it's not that surprising....:/

  Seems I have to pay forever for deceiving them when I posed as a female. A mistake I sincerely regret & have apologized for over & over.

  Is this the virtual equivalent to coming out of the closet..?

  I understand that, but how was a WGt player able to track multiple accounts tied to the same ip address..?
