I noticed in the other thread that banning is by way of IP. What happens if there are 2 players who share the same machine/license?

The reason I ask is because my 10-y/o son plays on my machine, but under a different player name. Whilst his lap-times are not in the running yet he still enjoys playing online and he I have told him all the rules and flags, and he is really quite curtious (yeilds under a blue flag etc.)

However he does make the occasional mistake, and sometimes gets a few 'words' by other people on the server. If he was to get banned, that would also mean I wouldn't be able to connect to that server right?

Yes if your son uses your LFS and is banned from a server, then that account is banned from that server for the period specified by the admin of the server.

OK thanks. I'll just have to keep an eye on him then ;)
