Dear FF and all Users.
It is quite obvious that there are many people who use FF who have set-up multiple log-on ID's, usually for nefarious and untoward purposes.
Many of these, especially on the Commercial forums, often posing as "happy clients" of a paid service or what have you.
This does not benefit any of the genuine users nor does it do anything to promote Forex Factory as a site which can be classified as looking after the interests of all the users.
I therefore propose that FF sporadically undertakes a check of all IP addresses that ID's log in through and publicly shames all those who are using multiple ID's.
Not sure how practical this would be but it will sure help if we could have some way of identifying those whom are abusing this site.
Obviously those with a roaming IP address will get around this but hey, it's a start.
Also I would suggest that the users location be automatically shown according to the IP location rather than having the user select it directly. To many blatant frauds are lying from where they are trading from, perhaps to aid legitimacy. I have been able to change my Location to USA when I am not there at all.
Any suggestion would be most welcome by all.
Am sure that if FF were to implement these changes, it would stop the obvious con merchants that operate on here.
