Um, its perfectly legal to do that. Not every building has only one gamer in it. Thats why there is a clear notice announcing it when it happens, instead of it being disallowed. If the administrators were worried about it, it wouldn't be announced for all to see, it would be auto-blocked or auto-banned.

Considering I only found out about this place from co-workers, its not that uncommon for multiple people in my workplace to be on here at the same time playing during lunch, and sometimes wind up playing the in the same game. Most often beating up on each other, not cheating you. Flatmates and Uni dormitories do it too; again, not every building has only one gamer in it.
Quite simply, if you don't trust it when multiple people are coming from the same IP address, then don't join those games where it is listed as occurring. Its why the notices are there in the first place.

There's usually no cheating involved there I think, I sometimes play with my girlfriend a game of Stone Age or Puerto Rico etc, as we live in the same house it will say 'same IP', same goes for players in a network at work and so on
