* the community is sadly declining, and less people are coming to the forums
And most importantly...
* If a boxers names are listed, he just creates new accounts.
Unfortunately there is no mature anti-multibox solution without cooperation of the developers. Only the developers can make 1) new accounts harder to create, 2) randomise servers that people connect too, 3) track device ID/ip address to hunt for boxers.

I emailed the devs, and they said that solving multiboxing is much harder to fix/track than just looking for an IP address because say three different people are playing subterfuge from say, there work office and one of them multiboxers and the other two don't. The devs would ban IP, thus removing the multiboxers, but ALSO getting rid of the two completely legit players from the game.

If there's anything I can provide to prove I'm innocent I'm happy to provide it. I can create screen caps of my games (with chat logs of any player I'm supposed to be also playing as)...
I do remember one game people accused me of having multiple accounts, but in reality the guy I was helping was just very willing to send me specialists in exchange for keeping him alive. But yeah, as I said.. what can I do to rectify this?
