I know how the Forums works. Giving advice, helping the community, and giving suggestions.
Don't forget learning on the asker's part. If the person who has a problem refuses to read/answer questions from the people trying to help *hint hint* it makes it neigh impossible for us to actually help you.
Are you going to tell us why you want an alt account that is for all intents and purposes the exact same as your main account or not?
why did they place "sockpuppeting" there?
You were told on page one three times. I suggest you actually read the posts of those answering your questions.
"Alt accounts have always been troubling to moderators, but after the massive invasion of new users, as well as the idea that it was a good idea to make clan-accounts, it was added to the rules that all alts was prohibited to show any kind of activity (forums, game- and user comments, ratings).
Before that, it was still a ground for banning if you posted on your own profile with your alt, not just because you are talking to yourself, but also because points was gained for no reason.
Leaving this, sockpuppeting is just a goddarn bad idea. In its most pure form, you have alt accounts that pretend to be other people that will, for example, back you up in an argument. Obviously that would create trouble really fast. The most common sockpuppetering on the site is people that make a - newbie alt that ask some questions, which then allows the main account to look smart while answering the questions, create an alt to break rules on the forum (and possibly have the main account comment on this or 'try' to get the alt to understand the rules), and when people think it is alright to talk to themselves.
Besides that, alts are just trouble and a quick way during a ban to get an even longer ban, if they use the alt during the ban for any reason."
"Their only purpose is for joining some sort of game clan for multiplayer in which you use that to log on and speak in game. Otherwise, they are not supposed to exist and thus are not allowed to comment or post on the forums, games, or other user's profiles.
You posting on your own account is seen as abuse of the alt account and AP farming."
"It kinda in the TaC you agreed to when making an account here on AG.
c.) Users are permitted to create ONE alternate account for each multiplayer game with the sole intention to join a "group" or "clan" with that group or clan name as part of their username. However, these alternate user accounts are NOT permitted to post messages in the forums, on game pages, or on other user profile pages. Each alternate account you create MUST be linked in your primary account's biography, and each alternate account's biography must link back to your primary account name in its profile area. The alternate account profile must turn off profile comments so users may not leave messages on that account. Failure to comply can result in removal of messages, as well as temporary or permanent bans to the accounts in question, with or without notice, at the sole discretion of Armor Games. We reserve the right to limit each player to one alternate account per multiplayer game, and reserve the right to prohibit any user from creating alternate accounts."
It soon turns into debates.
Only when someone argues for something which has no purpose, fails to provide a reason, and is disallowed for an array of good reasons.
