Re: One account, multiple IPs - allowed or not?

It's allowed.

The forum web server has no IP limit, only a hard limit for max connections. It's high enough such that normal forum use won't cause issues.

I believe the max on the tracker is currently two IPs. It's mainly intended to allow a seedbox to work ok with a member also having a home IP. Trackers have this limit in their code for sites that enforce ratio to discourage ratio cheating. Ratio has been found to have little effect on seeding behavior (the reasons are complex), so there's no ratio enforcement here.

Some smart automation is what's needed to get more folks seeding (scroll to bottom and read Jace's comment):
Option to seed if there are very few or no seeders.:
