What's the penalty for having multiple accounts connected?

[Findingnemo]

So, does the admin really allow multiple accounts after becoming a hero member? Well, I think I should create two more accounts now, haha. But if I can't find the time to manage one, how will I be able to handle two more? Speaking of accounts, I actually have two already—one on BTT and one here on ALTT—and I sometimes find it difficult to post on both.

If I created two more accounts and declared them, how would other people see me? I guess I have to find out. But first, I want to know if I'll be given a tag that shows everyone I have two additional accounts. Once that tag is on my profile, how will other members trust me, or how will they perceive me?

I know signature managers have allowed alternate accounts, but let me tell you this first, Recently, Royse removed some members from the campaign for abusing it with multiple accounts and being connected. This wouldn’t have happened to them if they had just declared it beforehand. I guess they might not have been aware of this information, as I only just found out about it myself.

Why would they not declared it before? Maybe they thought mangers wouldn't accept him/her, or what?

You will have a tag that says duplicate which is not something similar to plagiarism or cheater, you're just genuinely following what's allowed but not having time to post is different issue though.

Accepting one account or more than one depends on campaign manager and almost everyone allows only one so if someone is abusing with multiple accounts then they are obviously cheating the rules and may get whatever they deserve.

I don't want the duplicate tag either, because most members currently think it's a bad thing. I don't want to get a tag that everyone considers negative. I know we shouldn't care about what others think, but we should care about what the managers will think, haha.

Although Royse has allowed multiple accounts, they must first declare that they are applying from multiple accounts. So why would a manager accept two accounts from the same person? If I were a manager, and considering what I know about how managers select participants, I wouldn't accept a second account from the same member.

You can't have multiple accounts without declaring it and that's the forum rule so if you don't want the tag then you can't have more than one and also I don't think the tag is negative as you assume because it just proves that you are doing everything by the rules that will give you the positive impact in the long run.

Campaign managers can set rules as they want so we shouldn't confuse them with each other.

I have an alt account that was declared as a "duplicate profile" with a badge that shows as "Clone". I don't think any manager will accept such profile participants that have a "clone" badge with it; it doesn't look good, IMO. Just like that, it shows how the forum doesn't want users to have multiple accounts since it usually goes to being abused.

Royse rules never allow multiple accounts in the same campaign; you can apply your accounts, but only one can be accepted.

I checked the thread few days ago of what's the procedure to declare that we have other accounts as well and the admin said we will not get any tag like duplicate account take or whatever other tags are there. And the duplicate tag is a bad tag because when you will see the behavioral badges list this tag is mentioned on a list which is considered a bad one.

Mean the tag is also bad and we should not demand for it. So better to announce our other accounts and thus besides admin no one will know we have other accounts.

I know he did not allowed in the same campaign thanks for clarifying it as I did not mentioned the whole and in fact we can't join the campaign until we first declare to him/her that the account is our and I see you already has tried it and made an alternative account thanks for this information though as I thought other people won't know the account is ours or they really can't know?

[PX-Z]

... though as I thought other people won't know the account is ours or they really can't know?

They won't know, unless you put something on the account's personal text, signature or wherever can be seen on the profile that it's some username's duplicate account. It will only shows "Clone" and in "Duplicate" group.

You can PM admin to declare your duplicate account details.

And the duplicate tag is a bad tag because when you will see the behavioral badges list this tag is mentioned on a list which is considered a bad one.

It's not bad, it's just you announced that you have more than one account and as long as you are not participating your two accounts with one bounty then managers won't have a problem either.

Mean the tag is also bad and we should not demand for it. So better to announce our other accounts and thus besides admin no one will know we have other accounts.

Well, if you didn't declare and admin found out then you will be labeled as cheater (all of them) so if you wish to have more than one or you never know when the cheater label is coming and thus happens the next second admin knows about that.

You can PM admin to declare your duplicate account details.

Yeah I get that part. As I said a few days ago I learned the way of declaring our alternative accounts. Although PM is the best option there.

No As PXZ said, he has already tried the declaration method, and he got a duplicate badge on his secondary (testing) account, which means whenever that account is able to participate in campaigns, how will the manager see it, I know the account has to be declared to managers as well but will they see it as a good badge or not! I think they will see it as a bad badge.

Well, if you didn't declare and admin found out then you will be labeled as cheater (all of them) so if you wish to have more than one or you never know when the cheater label is coming and thus happens the next second admin knows about that.

I don't wish at the moment, but maybe when there will be permission given by managers.

They won't know, unless you put something on the account's personal text, signature or wherever can be seen on the profile that it's some username's duplicate account. It will only shows "Clone" and in "Duplicate" group.

Why would I do that, mean if I have an alternative account and I have declared it with admin, admin knows and gave a duplicate tag to it and now he and I know the account is of Faisal2202 so why would I declare that some X account is mine on my main account. Thanks for the information.
