I read through many threads with the same topic, but none provided an answer to my question. Simply put: how do I play Toribash on a private server with my brother in the same room? We used to be able to play together and I am surprised that there doesn't seem to be a better way to prevent farming/cheating other than making it impossible to play with somebody in the same house.

Is there a simple, reliable, and safe way to temporarily change my IP address just for this purpose? Should I PM a specific mod to ask permission to be allowed to play in a private server with my brother? If there is some way to make a private room where no TC or QI is earned then I assume that would be a fix?

Also, as a disclaimer, it has been quite a number of years since I have played this game. My brother just got some friends into it and wanted me to join a private server he created so we could just mess around and fight and get back into the game.

Thanks for the help! I did read one post (possibly by a mod) saying that this was going to be fixed soon, but that was back in April.
