[DESTROYA]

Lately I have suspicions that we have been seeing many alt accounts and didn’t think they were allowed , I‘m not naming names or pointing fingers but think if ALT’s are approved should have some sort of tag like we do now for when someone wants to change there name to know who they were/are. Personally I don’t think alts should be allowed due to the fact they can be abused and it’s confusing for members of the GAF community who like to communicate with one another.
Now I have no proof and could be 100% wrong like I am many times but input from GAF and maybe the Mod‘s can chime in and clear up any suspicions have a discussions about them.
I could just be paranoid or crazy but generally go with what my instincts tell me.
So GAF and Mod’s lets do this.

Alt accounts are banned for a reason. I hate them because simply its hypocrisy especially that with alt accounts people acts like if they're someone else

Unless you suffer from DID, then you're simply a cunt for having an alt and thinking you're fooling somebody.

What makes you sure its an alt account? Watch them know their way around. No new member knows the way around but people behind alts shares one thing which is stupidity

[Thaedolus]

Not if you want genuine discussion which is what a forum is for

[Nymphae]

One account per person, delete alt accoutns and ban the people using them temporarily.

I can't think of any positive reasons to use an alt account.

 

[Kamina]

I suspect that Brap, Cunth, Matt and KojimaLovesMiyazaki are all Evilore’s dupe accounts.

I got nothing against alts. I had one, and I ain't ashamed of it. It was the porch pirate.
If alts are used for comedic purposes then alts ftw. But if it's for steering some topic in the wrong direction or baiting, yeah then alts are bad.

XboxGAF needs to vet their community members a lot better from now on.

That’s what I‘m worried about the abuse and baiting but even for comedic relief if its funny with your ALT account it'll be funny with your regular user name.

That one was very specific. I made a thread about porch piracy. And then the PorchPirate replies with an amazon package as avatar and says "we all have to make a living somehow".
It wouldn't be the same if I wrote that.

 

[Cybrwzrd]

Alts are always a scourge, because they end up being used nefariously.

 

[jshackles]

OP there are like 8 accounts in the first page (most recent) of the ban log that are banned because they're alts, mods are obviously not okay with them.

 

[Tesseract]

nope, tolerance = 0

All prior permed accounts, have they ever banned users that have been caught using one as active members?

DESTROYA my opinion is alts generally cause more problems and disrupt communities more often than not. Not one person specifically, just the practice in general.

I think it’s funny when someone does a gimmick account with a theme, that’s cool to me, but then other people who create alts just to shitpost and drive by a thread because they don’t have the sack to put their name on it, that’s where the problems lie IMO

If I had an alt account would you hate it, ignore it, reaction boycott it too?

 

[Elektro Demon]

So much pretentiousness in this thread. And I have a feeling that Nymphae hates me? Why you have a hard on for me bruv?

 

[Tesseract]

it comes down to identification, i like to be confident in my certainty that i'm talking to the right operator

First of all let me thank you for the generous gift of gold, that‘s very awesome of you and thanks again.

I agree , gimmick account that are just trying to be funny and not cause drama are OK but should still have some sort of ID pointing out they are ALT accounts, not necessary pointed out who they are specifically but at least letting members know it is a ALT.

Thanks again, I very much appreciate it but don‘t really deserve it

 

[brap]

Alt accounts are retarded. Get a life.

Fear not, friend, that is not the case here!

Everyone hates you.

Don't know why you'd have that impression, I've enjoyed your posting enthusiasm and have given you plenty of reactions. I did think PorchPirate was an annoying gimmick and I suspect you are an alt account, but no hate friend.

 

[Slings and Arrows]

Fucking stupid idea.

You have a discussion with one member, they throw their teddy out of the cot and summon their alt accounts.

Now it's 4 vs 1 and the fence sitters will side with the 4, regardless of evidence, because that's how social psychology and 'group-think' works.

It ruins discussion.

 

[brap]

Will all of Xaero's alt accounts get banned? Will Xaero get banned?

I'm not an alt account. I was very open with my alts. Like I said I only had one and that's it. And I made that one very obvious.
But we're good mate.
But I'm surprised to see you calling me an alt account. I really am not. I'm not sure how to prove that, but if I could I would.

“The Thing” from 1982 is the best horror movie of all time.

who’s real and who’s an alt? Time will tell.....

I’d like to think everyone would

Don’t really wan‘t to see people banned just more accountability .

but the joy using a flamethrower while burning the alts to a crisp..

all alts should be burned.

Read this as "All accounts are retarded."

[CJY]

Not only should the alts be banned, but the people who create alts should be banned also.

Dunno how it would be properly governed though, might yield many false positives.

 

[Barnabot]

well put

your asses are grass

 

[Elektro Demon]

I'm dissapointed in Nymphae for calling me a fucking alt account. I don't like that bruv. I had one and that's it. I'm nobody's fucking alt.
Here you bastards, remember I made a thread when I bought a bike? I don't have a licence for that bike, so I have to go to driving school in order to get my licence.
Here's a fucking picture of that. I blurred some personal info and the schools info too. I don't know how else to prove this. God damnit.

You don’t have to prove anything man . Your one of the better members that I've seen in a while

It doesn't really matter what I think. I don't know why it's such a big deal for you that one person suspected you were an alt, a person who told you that despite that hunch they enjoy your content and look forward to more no less. Get over it.

Someone calling me an alt is like someone telling me I'm someone's bitch. I'm nobody's bitch.
I am a bitch, but no one's bitch. If that makes sense.

Poop thread were fun. But I'm moving on to more important stuff, like hot wings, hairy vags and that kinda stuff.
