I would like to reinforce what @Stuart Wright said here https://xenforo.com/community/threads/multiple-account-detection.49951/page-2#post-849713. This add-on is too limited at present for two major reasons.
In real life, what we are seeing is many, many repeated instances of reports, which is a big time-waster. We cannot use individual permissions to prevent these; it is the two, together, that we investigate and dismiss or deal with.
And, presumably ever since we began using this add-on, we have been placing cookies with a limited lifespan. There will be cases where this will allow a future duplicate to go unnoticed; and the longer this add-on remains deployed in its current state, the greater the number of cookies and thus the greater the probability.
In the circumstances, we have reverted to the unsupported AED we used prior to this one. As far as I know, it wasn't actually broken nor did it break anything. Happy to reconsider this if/when these issues are addressed.
