Ab-Z(About the letter): It's possible that that could be an auto-generated message, but on the slight chance it's not, it could show they do care... =/
We will discover this as we send in our reports. PLEASE see the letter & report log, which are not pinned at this point. Simply copy the letter, paste it into your message, put in the name, add the evidence, and send. Then LOG in the log the person you reported, so we will know how many reports each duper has against them. DUPE DESTROYERS CHAAAAAARGE !!! Well, if it's auto-generated, then you could always contact them by phone or letter... True. The point is to contact them...over and over and over again. Be sure there is evidence, as stated in post 1, and once then REPORT!

I got a friend request today from Z-Shadow. Its not me if you see it around. It is either a newbie to mln who is a fan, or it is a duper trying to make others look like a duper to pull off duping themselves.
Just figured I might as well say it here so I don't mislead anyone, but it could get bad if people do this and get others to take the blame...

No worries, ZLS. Thanks for the heads-up. BYI LEGO can check IP addresses and emails.

I am sure it is obvious that you are "real" none of you are rank 0 are you???
LEGO is not going to spend time searching ip's for dupes, but they CAN use them to verify if our reported dupers are really dupers.
The important thing is for LEGO to get reports, and thus know that a growing part of the community does not think duping is OK..

Nope. My mom is rank... 2? Maybe? She works a lot and can't get on to rank up. I would help, but she didn't tell me the password :-\ My brother and sister are both stuck on rank 4 at the moment, they're collecting green and purple bricks right now, and CM.

Hi
 Badges: (View All)

I have been following this discussion and have a few questions.
First I understand if someone has 10+ dupes this is a problem and LEGO can confirm by checking IP addresses. I just want to say you need to be careful with folks you think might have 1 or 2 dupes. These folks could be family members that play on the same computer and use similar account names but actually do have a real person behind the account.
For example "zkingsley" is a relative of mine and we do share a computer sometimes. He does not play quite as much as I do but he has been playing a bit lately (Just got to Rank 5 poor guy...). We occasionally help each other but in general we do not as I play all the time and trade clicks with a single user almost exclusively with small exceptions.
So our user names are similar and our IP addresses will match if searched but we have real people behind the accounts.
Second, I found a user by chance with a similar name "MattKingsley". I have never met this person but the user name is similar so I thought it would be fun to see if we could become MLN buddies.
Again, has the appearance of a possible Dupe but this one would fail the IP test as I have no idea who this person really is.
I guess all I am saying is that large scale obvious duping is a problem and should be reported but smaller stuff we sould be careful with. You don't want LEGO to get tired of a bunch of reports of somebody who may or may not have one or two dupes. Go for the Big fish first, I have seen a lot myself and will start cataloging them, but I would lay off the little fish that are real hard to prove for now as you just don't know.
Just my 2 cents,
ekingsley
Yes. When I am searching for dupes, I don't really pay attention to those with only 2 or 3 usernames that are the same. Unless they are low rank and don't do anything.
