I heard a few fireworks outside of my house.

But Aquanova, what about your post counts from your old account?

They're still there. I can still use the other account too. I'll just simply have to post more with this account to get more posts.

Making an alt is great but I don't like spreading myself out haha.

 

[Aquanova]

I just made it for a nice change of pace. I just thought people ought to know it's me ^^; I apologize if I did something I shouldnt have with this whole process, this is the first time I have done this sort of thing.

Using two different accounts in a forum could be considered as sock puppeting.

Here you are allowed to make another account to change your name.

I'm pretty sure you won't get in trouble unless you spam up a thread with your alts.

 

[Mr Cat Dog]

The only way you can get in trouble is if you treat each account like its a completely different person i.e. use two of them to have a conversation with each other in a thread, for example. As long as you're sensible, you'll be fine with changing your name. ^_^

Talking to yourself using different accounts sounds very weird.

 

[Correspondence]

Though there might be people who actually do that.

 

[Oryx]

People have done it in the past though. Usually to give people the impression that they're two different people.

 

[Pinkie-Dawn]

It's no different than talking to yourself when recording voices for a television show (i.e. South Park).

 

[Correspondence]

But doing that in a forum is weird.Seriously.

 

[Oryx]

Yes, yes it is. Quite weird. I could see wanting an anonymous alt as a mod though.

 

[Pinkie-Dawn]

To be fair, alternate accounts could provide good use for those with multiple personality disorder.

 

[Oryx]

Is that a real reason people do that....?

 

[Aquanova]

I dont know, I guess if you had multiple personalities, theoretically they could. Though maybe not if the other personalities just didnt care about forums or something.

 

[Livewire]

I have a ton of alts and I don't even remember all of them.

 

[Oryx]

I have Alder. :3 And a bunch of ones from the scavenger hunt haha.

 

[Ivysaur]

I have two but I only use one regularly, the other one was just for a joke for a person in particular XD
