Account hacker?

I think someone is making way too many multiple accounts. Look:
http://scratch.mit.edu/users/6063
http://scratch.mit.edu/users/6064
http://scratch.mit.edu/users/6065
http://scratch.mit.edu/users/6062
What a waste of usernames...

<think[  Hackers think they own the place...

Re: Account hacker?

Hey Mick, thanks for reporting this. All the accounts were created from the same IP address. It could be a class with tons of students sharing the same IP or someone making fake accounts. Let's keep an eye on it.

Re: Account hacker?

It's strange that the students aren't making any projects... Or joining any galleries... Or uploading avatars...

Re: Account hacker?

A class joining all at once is still consistent with the behavior of not doing anything on the web site yet.

Re: Account hacker?

But if they are students, they would probably pick more original names than numbers.

Re: Account hacker?

Well the principal/tech dept./person would do something other than their names.

Envy is when a person wants something others have.  wink

It's allowed. But if you start loving your own projects, like Davidchen, the community might not like you.  wink
