Temporary change of submitter's IP address

[Ilka]

I'm not sure whether I saw it somewhere in the rules of some LLs or not, but is it punishable to submit from a given IP, then move to another one for a couple of weeks and submit from there, and then move back? And do any LLs employ a kind of script that automatically checks IP, compares it with submitter's name and e-mail, decides whether they match each other and if not, automatically rejects submition?

P.S. I've read "Travelling Webmaster" topic and know Greenguy's opinion, but other LL owners' views are welcomed nevertheless.

My script automatically detects proxy IPs and flags them, but I don't worry about non-proxy IPs changing. Many people move around or use an ISP that gives them various different IPs every time they log on. I know that my IP address will float since I'm on DSL, and I get a different IP every time I turn my computer on (they're all in the same range). If I see a proxy IP that's in the same range as the actual IP (I see both for every submit) I figure it's someone on DSL, AOL or something like that. When I see a proxy that's a completely different range it tells me that the submitter is trying to hide their location.

In the end I'd say don't worry about it :)

Some users have a different IP each day. You are not tagged to one single IP for life (I wish!), but obivously if that IP changes often, we will look.
