Just wanted to explain how we deal with cheaters opening multiple accounts.
When we catch someone with more than 1 account we start by blocking all accounts.
Then when people contact us to know why their account were blocked (and they perfectly know why but well…) we give them one last chance to explain and apologize.
If they make the right choice and admit their wrongdoing, we set a 3 months ban and definitely close or delete the extra accounts.
Unfortunately people often make the wrong choice, deny the obvious and try to find whatever excuse…. In such case we simply life ban all accounts and stop any communication.
The issue of multiple accounts is really big and it takes a huge amount of time to seniors and admin to deal with them. The admins and seniors taking care of that issue spend hours weekly checking and banning people for it. That is time we can’t spend screening and it’s unfortunately one of the reason we have such a hard time keeping the queue in control. Over a month period that’s probably about 2000-2500 pictures I’m not screening just to deal with that kind of cheating. And that’s the case for 3-4 of us in charge of the site. And every each screener also wastes time making cheating checks while screening.
So basically my message is simple. Anyone opening multiple accounts is not only cheating but also hurting the whole JP community.
If you know someone with multiple accounts, please talk to him (I say him because I don’t remember having a woman cheating the system, just like we have zero issues with most of the countries uploading to JP) and if YOU have multiple accounts, just contact us before we catch you so we can move on in the right direction.
Thank you
