  • While, Pokecommunity allows alternate accounts, why they can't share emails?
    It's easier to the user, and it wouldn't hurt the community (at least in my opinion)

  • So that different members can't pose as each other, I assume.

    Well isn't it just for security reasons? I don't really know but I thought it was pretty logical.

    But if it's the same email, and the site requires email confirmation to you be able to post, isn't it kinda hard for different members to pose for each other?
    I mean, i the user's gonna hack the email, he might as well hack the main account

    Because in the forum admin control panel options, they have it set to require unique email addresses (which is the default setting). I don't know why they didn't, but they can set it so that we can use the same. I personally think setting it to allow it is a good idea considering accounts require validation to begin with.
