[QUOTE="THE_DRUGGIE"]

[QUOTE="topsemag55"] Except that it isn't "new blood" when someone who is established here makes an alt - the vets usually catch them sooner or later.:lol:22Toothpicks

It keeps things interesting.

Besides, taking post count into consideration at all seems irrational to me.

Yeah just look at cybercatter: 14,107 posts and 14,105 of them have been drivel. >_>

Just another alt trying to troll me..

They're fun for messing with people in roll call. I haven't used mine in a long time though.

[QUOTE="MissLibrarian"][QUOTE="22Toothpicks"]I wish I could combine the stats from my accounts so I could be close to 10K.cybrcatter

You're closer to 10K than I am. AND THAT MATTERS SO MUCH TO ME :cry:

I won't consistently notice your posts until you hit 10k. The only reason I saw this is because it followed THE_DRUGGIE.

You must have 15k posts before I notice you.

How many alts do you have Cybercatter?

Moon_Tzu

I made one a few weeks ago for a forum game. Only a handful of posts on that.

Had another GS account many many years ago before the website switched... whatever it switched. Think that's all, unless I drunkenly made one over the past 8 years of this account.

Not a big fan of alts in general, because most of the time it just means more work for the mod team to keep track of and it strikes me as "Jekyl and Hyde" style cowardice in many cases. (Damnit, if you got something to say, you should be willing to say it with the name/avatar that everyone knows and live with the consequences) But I admit I do have one of my own that I enjoy using from time to time.

My alt would spam this union in a desperate yet futile attempt to get on the mods' good side, with the ultimate goal of modshop in mind.

[QUOTE="topsemag55"] 3. Moderations don't "disappear" - they affect your alt as well.

I thought the only thing that could affect your alts was the banhammer. Get one of your accounts banned, a chain reaction follows. Or something along those lines. Anyways, I have a couple of alt-accounts (abandoned accounts), made them a long, long time ago for the user-shared boards. Can't remember why, can't remember last time I went through one. Might be months, might be years.

they dont bother me. it's funny seeing new users being accused of being people's alts by some "vets" just because they are new
