Limiting multi accounts is impossible. It's too easy to use a public open VPN, and open an account up. Yeah, the IP will eventually get banned but, they'll then just move onto another clean VPN. They'll then post under Tor Browser, and without some very in depth research it would be difficult to prove who's an alt of who.
Plus, alt accounts have their uses. I personally have an alt account that I access when using insecure connections. Same as Loyce above, and theymos also does the same.
I'm not talking about to eliminate the multiaccount (you right is impossible) but to
limit the multiaccount, since if managers will only accept full members+ people can't use 50-100+ multiaccounts to join social media bounties. (Yes someone has over 100 accounts
THE SCAMMER Guinness world record on bitcointalk 1 man 1000 accounts 150k+ usd!, I can post more example but this is the biggest found so far)
Also, yes someone now has 10+ accounts for signature and bounty, and they use to join the campaings BUT if the limit of full members+ it will be real, the total number of users of the campaing it will be smaller and it will easier to check for abusers.
Also keep in mind it will be easier to find multiaccounts and to red trust them, for this reason the abuser will are not able to join new bounties with the same account.
I'm not an expert but I don't think it will a small expense for anyone to buy 50 new full merit accounts and even if they do so, it will be always easier to check. (compared to now where in some bounties we have 2000 newbie/jr with new virgin eth address with no transaction).
Also @yahoo a good idea can be to require to have some eth/btc, this it will help the multiaccount hunting for obvius reasons. (even a small amount around 100$ I think is ok)
