in reply to Re^2: Why was my account deleted?
in thread Why was my account deleted?

I have various secondary accounts, primarily for testing. ²

(The remaining sockpuppets are primarily used to attack and insult me publicly. All this love and respect must be compensated)

The rule is IIRC° that secondaries are allowed, as long as the gods are informed and can disable voting.

It's stated somewhere, I forgot where... ¹

On a more serious note, dear goldeneyelikeamosquito, I could think of many more reasons to have secondary accounts, much the same like for posting anonymous, but having the benefit to communicate and log.

°) One of my biggest problems with English word order is where to correctly place abbreviations like "IIRC"

¹) Little known fact is that the topology of help and policy pages here inspired string theory, the cabal might be awarded with a noble price soon

²) Actually I lost track, but Gmail should know. Most probably were most already zombified and are now ravaging the graveyard of abandoned modules and eating the brain of former maintainers.

    Actually not that hard

    • I had to log out
    • find the login page
    • follow the link to the rules

    Site Rules Governing User Accounts
    1. A person may have only one account which they use for voting.

    2. Any person creating multiple accounts must identify and report these to the gods (/msg gods) and identify the one account which is to be used for voting. The other accounts will be barred from voting.

    3. A person will not be able to use their voting account to vote on nodes belonging to any of their other accounts.

    4. Creating a new account in order to circumvent /borging or other restrictions will not be tolerated.

    Rest assured that any attempts to hide multiple accounts from the gods will fail. Have a nice day
