How many alt. accounts do you have?

How many alt accounts do you own?

Just one. I believe that it's silly to have more than one Alt account unless you're on staff and have a need for more than one account. For example to test something like permissions, or a new forum feature.

I also believe that it's not quite right that most people won't mention their mains on their alts, but that's really a minor thing, and sometimes it's better for them to hide under the alt so long as they're respectful of the rules. I.E. not sockpuppeting.

But of course, this is just me.

yeah I think exactly the same. It irritates me when people swap to their alts with no warning or not even stating their old account in their profile. And I don't see any use for myself to get an alt. Unless it is needed for testing idk why anyone would bother making one. Just stealing usernames if you ask me :/
 
I made one, spur of the moment, picking out one of the cooler names of the BW new Pokemon.

yes i'm a bandwagonner :(
 
Here in PC, and almost everywhere too, I have only one account.

I really see no point in keeping more than one account.
Of course, if there is a good reason, like the works of the staff, then it's okay.
Otherwise, you really don't need one, and these are mostly used for sock-puppetry and confusing people. Why would someone feel the need to do that?
 
This Pwnyta Jockey username is my second ever account here. I`ve been here at Pokecommunity for a few years. Just tired of my previous account due to boredom with its name and lack of the choice-chance to change it as that thingy where I could was removed for the better.

Rarely post, rarely use my other one here.

I have more alternates with kingdomofloathing. My main-first and another two for a total of three KoL accounts.
 
I don't have an alt. account, nor do I plan on getting one. That would seem like illegal sockpuppeting.
 
I don't have a use for an alt. So I never even think about it. I do have one I never use though. Never even got it activated.
 
I used to have some, but I haven't used them anymore since I came back. I might, though, because I think the name is really pretty. =]
 
I have two that I can remember. One was called Fruit, and the other was Sparkling Juicy Nurse Mitch. (Sparkling Dragon + Juicy Fruit + Nurse Nica + Mitchman) We had so much fun in the DCC back then.
 
I have two old accounts, both of which I moved away from because they were basically only one-post wonders and completely inactive. I don't use them anymore, and I wanted to start over and be a full regular here, so I made this account and I'm sticking with it.
 
I have only one alternate account; FlamingThunder. I don't use that account anymore.
 
Ujjj, I have one, Alinthea.
It was when name changes were allowed and I just used that account to save the name. I guess I have that name saved FOREVA now! XD​
 
My other one is zcyler... for some odd reason I like my usernames to start with the letter "Z". It's my twitter username as well as for a lot of other things. Sometimes nonpokemon related... sometimes i just can't help but be pokemon related
 
No, and I have no reason too. I like my name and I have no idea why you would need an alt. You can't evade bans with them so...
