They are getting sneakier…
reply
Why would you need more than one..?
reply
To pump your own posts.
reply
You can just anon zap. No need to have another account
reply
Hey @k00b, are anon zaps generally weighted the same as other zaps? (yes I know about downzaps, hence, generally)
reply
And place several accounts on the leaderboard
reply
There are things i'd rather post as @anon. That costs money, so an alt account can be useful.

Eh, doesn't cost that much.
(the 100sats to tell you this was so worth it)
reply
I usually can't be arsed to log into alt account, anon is easier. But yeah, that could be a reason for alt
reply
100 sats for making your point
reply
That’s a fair point.

is that assmilk.gif necessary to be posted again? πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚
reply
Always. Assmilking is definitely going on with these multi-account types. Be yourself or anon… hard forkers can fork off.
reply
@koob are there any rules about multi accounts?
reply
πŸ˜‚ @k00b
reply
No rules against it, afaik.
reply
I don't think so either. And it's difficult to combat this, an IP approach would be one way, but just use a VPN and it's no longer possible to control.
reply
It would also go against the cypherpunk ethos, which this forum embraces.
Bitcoin doesn't have rules against one person having multiple addresses either.
reply
That's true. I don't see any criminal behind having more than one account. The question was out of curious, do we have this rule or not

No rules around this. Create as many accounts as you need.
reply
Fork yeah Now I can sleep soundly
reply
I would rather mantain one really well, than 4 mas o menos. I don't have enough time to mantain 4.
reply
why would you have more than one? Ain't that PITA to follow what you posted where and track responses for 4+ accounts?
reply
Maybe I should html parse stacker news accounts and look whose lingos/word choices/typos/times match the most
reply
What do they call it?
Nice try, fed.
And why?
I can have as many accounts as I want but having one is sufficient. Why do you need more?
Yes, you need it, in case you are suffering from dual personality syndrome.
reply
Many... Probably 40+ πŸ˜…
reply
Only one.
reply
4+? interesting!
reply
This has been asked with a poll before. Related posts doesn't seem to find it.
I'm again really surprised this even exsists so I wouldn't even have asked
reply
Ha ha I just have one. Am I doing this wrong?
reply
Really can we use multiple accounts from the same IP? I never knew that!!! Great post!
reply
I can barely cope with 1
reply
I recently had two, but I lost a phone, so now I only have one for Stack. and I can add that just keeping an eye on one account has helped me interact more. let's keep stacking πŸ’ͺ🀠⚑
reply
Not today FBI.
reply
One
reply
I have three. I lost the password of my first account, then I created this one. I have another account but thought it was silly, counterproductive, and disingenuous to have alter egos, so now I'm only using this one.
reply
So why nobody has 3?))
reply
Just one, do not have any intention to scam the system
reply
You telling me people have more than 1 account? Are they wash stacking? Someone call the SEC
reply
How actually needs more than one?
