If a person called, oh say, Mr Flame decided to make another account called Mr Flame, with an upper case "i" instead of lower case "L", would he be banned for impersonating himself?

Uh, no?

But he shouldn't do it unless he has a damn good reason. He DOES risk being banned for spam if he misuses his extra accounts. In fact, he risks having all of his accounts blacklisted.

The rules are:

Don't impersonate other members (especially moderators).

And

Don't make accounts to bypass a blacklisting.

Correct? (Just making sure.)

That's correct. But i remember also reading that making alts. is frowned opon.

Edit: Spelling

I totaly agree with everything he just said.

It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial. And it is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves the flag, whose coffin is draped in the flag that allows the protester to burn the flag.Father Dennis Edward O'Brien, USMC

Multiple accounts= Bad

Like Recon said they can be used as a fresh start, but sadly I have seen people use alt accounts for very bad things.


Alls we can do is hope people be mature about it and use it for good.
