    I often wonder if AH is comprised of about 10 people running loads of alt accounts. These questions truly affect my everyday life.

    I know Mods can see IP's so they know of any alts ;)

    But to the everyday boards user, how is it possible to tell?

    I have set up 2. This one, and another one that I used to post in helpdesk about twice when this account's password was changed on me somehow. Hardly counts as an alt account though.

    Also, FYI, mods can't see IP addresses, only admins.

    I always find prison a funny read to see who gets caught with multiple accounts.

    I'd say they might be lying to you.

    Boobs bring out a lot of truths from the mods.

    Can't remember how many logins I have. I would appreciate it if the mods could let me know. Preferably the active logins and not the banned ones you cretins.

    Kind regards,

    4.

    This one; one I use to post humourless and passive-aggressive left wing posts in AH relating to Northern Ireland, Palestine, and the US. One to post right-wing claptrap over on politics, and one to post nosey jerk circle style posts over on Feedback.

    Are multiple accounts illegal, or just illegal to get around a site or forum ban?
