I know that in the end it, can't be done. But, what are the options to: a) limit the options for persons to create multiple accounts, b) increase the chance of detecting multiple accounts / person for a blog-like web service? (people can sign up for their own blog) Update: I think the 'limit the options' has been answered nic...
This is something of a rant, as well as a question. There are some sites, like Facebook, where you would only want to be logged into one account at a time.

My employer is considering implementing a single-account, multiple profile system across their various web properties.

I'm very cautious about this ap...

I think it's a Bad Thing to do, but I was hoping for an authoritative perspective, or at least a broad sampling.

Hi, I am currently working on building my own blogging website from scratch (instead of using WordPress or Drupal).

The idea is we have a website for free downloads but there will be daily limit of daily downloads for each user (say 5 dl per day per user) so there will be users with multiple accounts. IP detection is not good; cause I have many users from one ip (users from one organization) email verification and unique email account is not good;...
Hello, I'd like to reference a user account on a Windows machine, without knowing the host name of the machine. Specifically, I am assigning permissions on a SQL server database, in a sql script, that will give permissions to a local user account on that machine. For example: CREATE USER [UserA] FOR LOGIN [MACHINENAME\UserA] WITH DEFA...

Right now, I have two different accounts on the same SVN server. Subversion saves the password for the last user, but seems to forget about the other one.
