I had several accounts at DP, I always logged in through different IPs. now for no reason all my accounts got banned?
How did they tracked them?

Cookiesuch:
I'm pretty sure cookies weren't the reason..
Do they have any new tracking system?

If you don't clear your cookies everytime I almost guarantee this was it. Also depending on your IP solution that could be it, public proxies you find on G may be well known to them and simply switching IP on your modem you'll still have the same location.
Finally they aren't the police they don't need proof. Even if you thought you were sneaky posting again and again on all the same BST threads is a pretty good flag.
That was great

Haha! Dude you had 7 accounts.. It was reported as a duplicate post. Research went further and found out that all of your accounts had the same name address and different IP's. Hahaha
What was your username on DP?
'NegativeCompleteness' was recently registered and then closed manually through UserCP. No reason recorded.

And if some random person here knew then probably a few other people did too, one probably reported it. If it looked suspicious then a mod probably banned them all.

LSO cookies = Flash Cookies.
Use a plugin like ccleaner to eliminate them...

local stored objects "aka" flash cookies. you need the better privacy addon from firefox to get rid of them.

wow went and checked out the flash cookies and damn they were hittin me up hard.
The firefox plug in only lets you delete one at a time or all at once no in between. So what I did was go directly into the stored location and select the ones i wanted gone and deleted.
I bet this was how the website was keeping me banned i spoke about in another thread.
I will check it out later tonight and know for sure.
One thing good about the plug in is that once you get the flash cookies under control and mark the ones protected that you want to keep you can go in and mass delete the rest fast .

This will help also, allow you to delete them all at once and change settings. You can stop websites from storing flash cookies on your PC. At least thats what it says it does
