Myr's post in Two Users One Household was marked as the answer
Well, it's more that we don't allow one person to have multiple accounts. The easiest method for checking that is to check for duplicate IP addresses. Historically speaking, this rule is in place because of the drama of one person running two accounts and getting into arguments with themselves and otherwise causing drama. I hate drama.

Myr's post in Unable to access the website from Brazil was marked as the answer
Our firewall whacked Brazil due to constant and excessive DOS attacks and hacking attempts to access the server. It's supposed to clear after a time, so if it was still going, it probably keeps getting retriggered.
