Guest Derek L Posted February 19, 2013 Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 So, tell us the point that was attempted to be made (and failed). That there are people that share a computer (and IP address) that might attempt to have two accounts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bush_cheney2004 Posted February 19, 2013 Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 That there are people that share a computer (and IP address) that might attempt to have two accounts. Yes, and after reading the Forum Rules and Guidelines again, I can find no direct prohibition for multiple accounts. I know this has been directed by the mods, but where is it promulgated ?

Yes, but that point doesn't need a disgusting picture, or mocking of either conjoined twins or people with multiple personality disorder.

Bryan Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 He actually was making a point…………..And I’ll add, what if ones spouse or someone else in the household wanted to start an account? I was banned from another site for this very reason. My son and I both had accounts on the site, a mod saw the IP was the same, instant permanent ban. No amount of explanation would change their minds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shakeyhands Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 So who is suspected of having multiple accounts? Out of curiosity of course.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bush_cheney2004 Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 Yes, but that point doesn't need a disgusting picture... The Hensel twins are not disgusting. They are a volunteered study in human triumph over adversity. So what's the verdict: one MLW account or two ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest American Woman Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 Yes, but that point doesn't need a disgusting picture, or mocking of either conjoined twins or people with multiple personality disorder. What's disgusting about it? Seriously. They are beautiful girls with beautiful attitudes and personalities. From all I've seen, they live life to the fullest.

Guest Derek L Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 A point? About multiple personality disorders? If so it was an idiotic point. I don’t see it as idiotic……..Two separate accounts from the same computer/IP address seems like a valid point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peanutbutter Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 Does seem unfortunate that a husband and wife, for example, are unable to make two seperate accounts on this website. So are they meant to share one account? What's the precedent here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, goes back to my point..........If said scenario happened, how would one clarify with the mods? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE op wasn't talking about that. Thus the idiocy of the post. Having one person w 2 accts is the issue. Mom and dad or sibs can be an issue, but that wasnt addressed.

I'm not sure you could. How can the mods tell if there actually are different people - or the same person pretending to be different people? And what about a suspended person using another's account to post? I see that using a proxy to post when suspended isn't allowed, but using another's account is a different way of circumventing a suspension.

That’s why I asked , since I wouldn’t know how one could create such a system………..Not that my son (teenager) or wife (Too busy with Farmville) would be interested….

WWWTT Posted February 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 He actually was making a point…………..And I’ll add, what if ones spouse or someone else in the household wanted to start an account? Sounds like you are making a logical point that many people reading this thread can find reasonable. What BC suggested is too far out there to be seriously debated on an anonymous forum.

Mom and dad or sibs can be an issue, but that wasnt addressed. Yes thank you guyser! That was at the heart of this thread. It has been made clear that one person can not post with different handles. But points must be also be given to how MLW loopholes still allow this rule to be easily circumvented. WWWTT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what's the verdict: one MLW account or two ? They would get two the same way my wife and her identical twin sister would get two accounts. All identical twins were at some point conjoined twins, if ever so slightly. That may be why I'm prickly on the issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbg Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 Mom and dad or sibs can be an issue, but that wasnt addressed. What I think after some reflection is that if other members of the same household want to join they should pre-emptively alert administrators to avoid a problem.
