I'm sure this has been asked multiple times, but bear with me: How do you catch people with alternative ID's? And do the original people get perma-banned for them?

We use magic! That and a bit of detective work, and a bit of IP checking. A whole host of things really; I used a post on VizionEck to catch an alt last week!

Original accounts can and have been perma'd for alts, yes.


Thank you! So if someone had a hypothetical alt that didn't cause any issues and they've only posted a few times, would the mods still want that banned?

That's right. One account per person! Some more high-profile users have an alt for talking to mods via PM only whilst banned; but posting in the forums is an absolute no-no. Can lead to doubling your ban length.

should be banned asap imo thats also what happens with mine
