My son just informed me he joiuned Battlemaster

Who do I need if any to explain that my son has joined the game on the same IP.  I assume this will be an issue.  Please contact me.

There are actually quite a few players who are related or living together or other arrangements of that sort; IIRC their cheater detection is much more sophisticated than just a shared IP, so I don't think you should have anything to worry about.

I would advice you to write to Tom and explain the situation.

I think Tim would be the person to write to, nowadays. That being said, he does read these forums, and I doubt it's necessary.

Its always handy to inform the Dev team if you are sharing a IP with someone. In general the checks for the detection system are much more involved, but it is still nice to hear from people that have nothing to hide if you know what I mean.

No, it's not. What is helpful is if your person details show the relation (e.g. you've both registered with full real names).

Only if your sharing goes far beyond living in the same home should you inform the devs. If you also use the same computer, for example, it can actually look like multi-cheating to the automated systems, because they have no way of knowing that the person in front of the keyboard has changed.
