With the case of other accounts on the IP: It would depend on context. If the locked account was the only on the IP, nothing to really worry about. Others with different information? Keep an eye on them, of course. Look for similar patterns in the future. If a new account suddenly appears on the IP? ( People can be devious with IPs. Not going into specifics for various reasons ) Yeah big brain investigation time.
On Pokefan1357's sibling making an account: Staff does have the ability to whitelist names and such. We of course ask various questions and general investigation to check if the new player is secretly the locked user and such. Again we look for similarities and, again, watch the user closely for any similar patterns.
