Just saying that with block for 900+ disposable email domains in place, combined with API checking for disposable domains too, that for the vast majority of users they are not going to bother. Regardless, this addon is not for that scenario anyway and I'm more interested in picking-up on those that are trying to recover old accounts but cannot and decide to re-register, so as I can merge them and have as little known duplicate accounts as possible. Nothing will ever protect against malicious intent, nor do I think this addon's purpose is for that.

Exactly. We can never stop people sufficiently determined and knowledgeable, but that's where human moderation comes in. This add-on is intended as one of many ways to help spot duplicate accounts or odd goings on. Often the most disruptive members take the least care to be clever when causing trouble and are easily spotted with add-ons like this. But it's not a fool proof solution @Lexy :)

XF v1.3
Addon v1.3.4

I think I've found a bug, or possibly more appropriately an un-scoped usage scenario ...

1. Alter Ego detects a duplicate, produces a Report.
2. Edit one of the 2 user accounts given, and merge it into the other.

.... Alter Ego still (days after merge) detects for subsequent logons by the remaining user, and flags the alter ego.
Suggest a program update so that it ensure both accounts exist?

Reminder, please, for fix. I'm also now getting Alter Ego reports against Guest :confused:
 
Thanks for this addon!

You have a mixture of alter ego and user reports. The only way to fix this (unfortunately) would be to delete those reports.

To do this execute this SQL query:

Code: 
DELETE FROM `xf_report` WHERE `content_type`='user' OR `content_type`='alterego';

Thanks, will release an update for this now.

After installing/upgrading to v1.3.6, the following appears many times within a few short minute in the error log ....

Code: 
ErrorException: Fatal Error: Access level to LiamW_AlterEgoDetector_Extend_ControllerPublic_Register::_preDispatch() must be public (as in class Tac_FoolBotHoneyPot_ControllerPublic_Register) -library/LiamW/AlterEgoDetector/Extend/ControllerPublic/Register.php:0

Looks like http://xenforo.com/community/thread...ion-page-honey-pots.37063/page-25#post-747495 applies?

@Mouth that's my fault

That's a buggy version of fbhp, _preDispatch() should always be protected, this was fixed soon after releasing and noticing the error
@Mouth try the latest version of fbhp, the error should go away (since _preDispatch() is protected everywhere, and I assume it has protected access in this plugin)
