Son of Sin

hey, i hope this is the right place for my question ...clearly, i update suburb info using all 3 of my active accounts. am i violating any game/wiki rules? -- Son of Sin -- 00:50, 19 August 2011 (GMT)

as long as it's for role playing purposes you should be fine. just use one account as your handle and for voting. you do know you can do other alts off of one user space right?--User:Sexualharrison02:42, 19 August 2011 (bst)

so i log in as Son of Sin but enter my alt's name as the user when i'm editing a suburb where my alts are? example: my alt Sinister Son was scouting Mornington...so i should've sign my edits as Sinister Son? -- Son of Sin -- 03:07, 19 August 2011 (GMT)

Do you mean game alts or wiki alts? Alts of both type are fine. In game, just make sure you keep your alts as far away from one another as possible (at least 10 blocks) and they aren't used in a cooperative manner at all. Its best to just treat them as if they don't even know of each other's existence. Using both as scouts for suburb and building danger levels is fine since that's not really cooperating with one another. ~ _{03:02, 19 August 2011 (UTC)}

game alts. i was just wondering if it's okay to edit the wiki under 1 name for all 3 alts. or is it considered zerging or something if i report what i saw in a suburb as my alt Sinister Son under my other alt name Son of Sin? -- Son of Sin -- 03:07, 19 August 2011 (GMT)

That's perfectly fine. ~ _{04:09, 19 August 2011 (UTC)}

Often people have pages for their alts within their user space. For example, if your alt was named John Doe, you could make a page for him at User:Son of Sin/John Doe and sign such reports JD. As long as you're not using your alts to scout for target areas for other alts of yours, it's all fine, and preferable to having multiple wiki accounts for each character -- boxy 04:16, 19 August 2011 (BST)
