What is the point of an alternate account?

[hateraid]

I don't get why posters create multiple accounts.

It appears registration is reopened, but I don't think the majority is ACTUAL new members

Unless you've been banned or use it to entertain other posters with a quick gimmick what is the point? Are you trying to get banned?
Serious question. It just seems like they are pointlessly created for personal entertainment, which to me seems like a waste of time.

Dont knock it till you've tried it.

[CeltsGarlic]

I used to want one but the procedure to get it seems to be not worthy.

[hateraid]

Yep, and this makes it extremely lame. You dont know who is giving an opinion someone in real life actually holds, or if theyre just a fake account purposely arguing with you.


Thats why literally every poster whose pic I have not seen or who has a long standing history here but has not posted a pic for obvious reasons (kevinyc, niko, bagelred, droid, most other liberal losers who are probably extremely ugly).... I just assume all other accounts (save a handful i know are nick youngs) to be Josh. And most of them are.

Most of us spend enough time on here. Another account is too much. At least for me. I already post 5-10 times a day. That's enough.

Exactly. I don't have enough time to post on multiple accounts. Not to mention I don't understand what I'd get out of it.

I just joined up. I am usually pretty active when I post on just one name. I always wondered the point of Alt names on forums. Usually they are there for arguing, but either way, as long as I am talking Basketball I honestly dont care who I am talking to.
