Hello folks,

It has come to my attention that a handful of you are making multiple 'dummy' accounts and pretending to be someone else. From the posts of these 'new' accounts, I've noticed they are either trolling or an attempt of getting attention. These accounts will be systematically deleted as I find them. If you have one of these accounts and think you have a legit reason why you have more than one, private message myself or dishnetkid with your reason, and we'll decide if it's worthy. If I do not hear from any of the account owners, the newer account will be deleted.

If any new accounts are made from current users, the new account will be deleted and the primary account owner temporarily banned from posting on the forums and wiki. I don't want to do this, but these new accounts are worthless and do not help the forum in any way, shape or form.

As an aside, I have updated the thread regarding user signatures. Please read it.

DS, I don't think this was unnecessary. The only person we believe is doing this is Ham Bone/Text, and that is fully speculation (we have multiple pieces of reasons why we think it's him, but it's speculation none the less)

How would you find out anyway? I don't understand.

Actually, I take that back, he wasn't deleted. He must of changed his birthday (again). Actually, I take that back again, I guess Banana was banned. His posts are still there, but you aren't able to view his profile anymore

Also, I'd like to reiterate Paul's point. Unless they come out and say it's a second account, there is no way to 100% know if it is someone else

I'm sure he can check IPs...

Currently, the accounts that come forward are simply being deactivated. I'll leave it up to the account owner to decide if he/she wants to reveal who they are.

There are several methods to determine if multiple accounts are in use, but mostly common sense has worked the best so far.

I don't have two accounts, thankfully. And Ham Bone is not Text.

I know Mac was saying that me, Alvin, and Patrick are the same person but that's not true. I don't want my brothers to have their account deleted.

But most of the time you can tell easily if someone has two accounts. By the way they write, spell and express themselves and even avatar.

I know that when I first joined up I had an account named zionfarm. Then I made the one this one because the first one was giving me problems.
Can you guys get rid of that one please.
