The IP sharing rule kicks in automatically when it detects two players on the same IP. Game Rules link: http://www.strongholdkingdoms.com/GameRules.html
5. Players sharing an Internet Connection.

Players who are sharing the same connection should not trade or reinforce each other. Nor should they capture each others villages. The game will automatically detect if you are on the same connection and limit what can be done.

If you are using a shared connection, which uses the same public IP address for all players on this connection, you will be unable to perform certain actions. Shared IPs will happen if players are on the same network, i.e. people in the same house/office.

These actions are:

Voting for or by influencing with monks in an election, players on the same connection.
Making a vassal or becoming a liege lord to players on the same connection.
Reinforcing players on the same connection
Using monks (Interdict, Absolution and Excommunicate) on players on the same connection.
Trading with players on the same connection.
Attacking the same common target (humans only) as players on the same connection.

It's possible that people on the same ISP with dynamic IPs may get the same IP.

Players with a Premium Token in play are not subject to this restriction.
The above only restricts certain actions it does not prevent you from playing the game. As bukland said, the block will within 7 - 10 days providing you do not share the same IP again within that time. If you do then it will start the countdown again.

If this rule is in effect, then why, when I just tried to Cap someones village did I watch someone send vassals and ID to their city, then switch accounts to throw the troops on their walls, and then proceeded to tell me in mail that they were married and share accounts routinely?
