Could someone of authority kindly state the policy on multiple accounts for this forum? The reason I ask is that - for the most part - everyone seems to adhere to the idea that one pseudonym is enough. There are even some folks who - after a few years go away to come back with a different persona but there's clearly no intent to deceive. They may have wanted a new nick, or forgot their old login, etc.
Then you've got a few serial scam artists who have 3, 4, or 5 or more nick names in a given short time frame (call it a year or two). I don't understand this. Is it because they were banned and sneaked back in? Or they ruined their reputation and then figured it was time for a change?
In the grand scheme of things, this isn't an overly big deal. But it is annoying when someone "joins the forum" for the first time and instantly has an ax grind with someone else, and you kinda sit there going, what the hell did I do to this guy? Only to realize later he/she was someone hiding under a new sock puppet all along.
