I mean I’ve switched characters before mostly out of boredom. But yeah, sock puppeting, specifically the act of using alts to bump a topic or invite a flame war, is the text book definition of sweat.
Like, people really come on here to talk to themselves and stroke their own ego, genuinely makes me want to puke.
Definitely agree that if someone is swapping alts TO violate the rules it should be punishable…though I dont know if i saw that on the CoC list there specifically.
But it should be about the violation itself, not the alt swapping alone, because we are allowed to do that.
Lord. We busted one guy in here maybe two years ago? three?
he was posting on NO LESS than ELEVEN alts talking to himself, liking his posts, etc. lmao.
how desperate for attention does someone have to be to do that? lol
well i would like to personally thank everyone who helped support my position that account wide ignores is not good for the forum because it creates problems with privacy of information.
thank you all so much for your input, i had a lovely time discussing this with you all
I mean the forum is hardly that bad to begin with. I think anyone being honest with themselves can see that fact. This is a pretty laid back forum and at its worst isnt 1% as bad as the dumpster fire that is Twitter/ X lol.
But personally, Im not opposed to a two way block where I dont see them, they dont see me.
