Recently read that you can change your IP Address very easily (or you can use a proxy).
Is this the case and if so, how does T2W identify those with a 'multinick'.

Yes, you can use a proxy. There's no way of stopping that if you're determined enough to get onto the site and make a nuisance of yourself.
Many ISPs use dynamic IP addresses anyway, so unless we ban a range of IP's (which often includes 'the innocent') we cannot stop that either. Some ISPs have static IP's and identification/banning is then easy.
We do have some other methods of identifying multiple nicks, but I'm afraid I'm not going to say what they are in case people figure out a way of circumnavigating them. Suffice to say that I think we probably get most (although undoubtedly not all) multinicks.
