Regarding multiple accounts and shared accounts...
I know one is not allowed to have multiple accounts as long as they don't pretend to be someone else, but the rules on this says "staff can view your IPs" to determine if you are playing sock-puppetry but also says something like you can make multiple accounts for you or other members of your family.
So, wouldn't staff be confused into thinking two people with seperate accounts using the same computer is the same person playing sock-puppetry because they have the same IP address? Also, what is the policy on multiple people sharing one account? |
You can typically tell when two accounts on the same IP are really different people, or the same person. It's obvious in some ways, and we can usually figure it out. We have ways. xD On the chance that they really are two different people, we just have to trust them. Like-wise, two people using the same IP is fine, and it's done a lot. Heck, even one of our mods shares an IP with a sibling.
Sharing one account has happened before too.. Although, I'm not h-staff so I dunno how that's dealt with staff-selection wise, but if you're not looking to be modded, then account sharing works out okay. o_O Edit: UGH. sorry.. >_> forgot I was on my alt. xD; -mod- |
Don't think there are any policy on that yet. If it was it should stand in the rules.
Yes, they will get confused but I'm sure each account individually have some kind of ID? But i really don't know. |

If one account gets banned, it doesn't effect the other. However, for an offense that got you IP banned, nothing can be done and you both can't come to the site. |
