Any idea? Fyi, I never made loads of accounts to get refs. I do have 6 refs, but it is not from my IP and country. Maybe it's because a dynamic IP and others registered with the same IP, but not me.
It sucks to have a provider that uses shared and dynamic IP. It sucks even more when there are a lot of irresponsible users using and sharing that same IP. I recognize that IP. In fact I think I've connected to that same IP a couple of times. And I hate those irresponsible users jeopardizing other users' internet experience. You're quite lucky toephank you didn't share my then-problem.
