one method is to take credit card information

the check for IP address is not possible,
since a lot of people have dynamic address, not static...
and when I connect to Internet I can get the same address of someone else connected before

I seriously doubt that the credit card idea would fly. Lots of people have multiple credit cards, so it would still be easy to make multiple characters. More importantly, a free web site which required a credit card number would seem to me to be a place best avoided.

Checking IPs can work. It is commonly done by other game sites. However, it has some notable limitations. As SkunkGuru commented, dynamic IPs create a problem. They make it harder to compare players from one session to another. Even though many dynamic IPs last for extended periods of time, the only sure checks for any given IP are if there are either; 1) multiple simultaneous log-ins, or 2) one or more sequential log-ins. There are also plenty of legitimate reasons for multiple players to use a single IP. Two quick example are; 1) libraries, where many people may use a single computer, and 2) networks where multiple computers go through a single modem (as we have here).
