Firstly, multiple profiles are not allowed, if we find people posting under more than one profile and we can prove it , the alternate profiles are deleted and banned, and the Orignal profile may also be too.
EI can have suspicions about allot of things that go on with users posts, but we need to be able to prove it. If you have an escort sat with a punter and they are both posting using the same account, how can we prove that? we cant! Unless we are sat in the room with those persons.
Sometimes we cant win, if we do something we would be slated, if we dont we would be slated.
You all have to remember this is a virtual world, and pyscos or people who want to deceive are usually clever enough to know how to do it and make it hard to trace.
We try our best to be fair and make decisions with the information we have. Someone is always going to be unhappy!

I intend to live forever. So far, so good.
Wise men talk because they have something to say;
fools talk because they have to say something: Plato
Yes, it was within the last two days but other mods were working and allowed a multiple profile to be used and now Doozer says that is alright.
So why cant anyone set up a multiple profile.
Presumably, the person in question passed this with Doozer.
So, if I want to have multiple profiles do I ask you or Doozer? And under what circs are they allowed?
Presumably if one is embarassed one can create a profile to ask a question?
Also, it is allowed for comedy purposes?
So what are the other circs?
Multiple User IDs
Please do not use more than one account. We may turn a blind eye to people having multiple user IDs if we feel they have created an additional ID for comedy purposes only and it has caused no harm, but if we feel a user has created a duplicate ID for dishonourable purposes, the duplicated ID(s) will be banned and the user’s original ID may also be banned.
The rule is clear above
It wasnt for any underhanded purposes
Anon2010 wanted to ask a wuestion that he felt he was too embarrased to ask it using his origonal profile
So for the purpose of asking that quastion we turned a blind eye
Now Herodotus you seem like an intelligent individual so you must have seen the reason why we would allow it which leads me to believe that you are only trying to stir up trouble.
Please behave or you will be infracted for spamming the boards with the inane accusations
Of course I saw the reason why it was allowed. That is not the point. The point is that multiple profiles should not be allowed for any purposes.
And I am not sure if you know what inane means or accusations but I did not make any accusations inane or otherwise. I was trying to clarify the occasions when multiple profiles are allowed as this is clearly the case. That is a fact.
But, as this is being interpreted as spam and shit stirring, I am not going to say any more about it.
