I have create an account with my personal computer in my house, but i use torrent also in my office... i use to control the status of download/seeding from my house always with the same account.... could i be warned or banned for this?

Yes.
Just don't seed/leech from both places.

yes, you can login from another computer without a problem, you can even seed from two different pcs as long as you don't leech/seed the same torrent from both places at the same time.

If someone else who has an account on BakaBT logs in at your office as well, and one of you is warned, then one of your accounts may be disabled.  This is fairly unlikely, but if it does, just pop into the support channel on irc and we'll get you all fixed up.

When using a seedbox along with your regular torrent box for instance, you are in effect seeding from different places. Not a problem at all, as long as you adhere to the guidelines laid out above.

I don't know if I'm the only one who thought about this particular angle or not, but really I think you may have asked the wrong question.

Really what you need to be asking is "Should" you log in from your office....

Remember that while you are using a network system other than your own personal one, there is no expectation of privacy, and anything you do or say could be held against you not only in terms of your continued employment, but also in a court of law should the corporate policy be to report any nae-do-wells, (which is the case with most major corporations)

If they have a halfway decent IT department you are going to get caught eventually.

Are you actually torrenting from your office, or just checking stuff remotely thats downloading at home?

Nah, I was just wondering because you can set clients up so you can add things while at work, but they download at home.

Less risky
