Earlier this day, I noticed this image in the RoF screenshot thread. It got me curious: Why did someone buy that many Minecraft accounts? What's the point? After a little investigating, I found out some more about them. Check these threads on other minecraft-related forums out:

(sorry for the indirect advertising)

Now, I'll paste here what some people have been saying about the accounts:

"This are Accounts with public password so everyone can missuse them"

"They all belong to a summer computer camp and are shared accounts between a lot of people. The login credentials are generic and the only thing that changes in them is the respective number of the account in both the email and the password. They can't be IP banned as they're different people using them half the time. Sad"

"The idminecraft accounts are public alts, that someone can easily acquire and do wrong with."

Anyway, I just wanted to make you aware of this. I realize you probably can't ban people without proof and blablabla but even then I thought people would like to know about this. Even if the accounts aren't hacking or griefing or similar, they were stolen/hacked, so yeah...
(edit: shit, I probably should've sent a pm to the admins instead of creating a thread here, eh?)
