I think I have 2.

When I first came on, I forgot all my login info, so the account is lost to the digital mists of time.

It occurred to me that some may have alter egos.

Why?
Mistakes like mine.

But also:
To have strawmen for debates.
To vote multiple times.
To avoid the TMP Lawman.
(All wrong reasons btw! But who knows?)

Just one

John Armatys12 Apr 2025 7:14 a.m. PST

Just one for me too.

I can see the point in a trader having two, one for "work" and the other for hobby purposes.

Col Durnford Supporting Member of TMP12 Apr 2025 7:14 a.m. PST

Only one.

Do the terms of service allow multiple accounts? I thought that was forbidden.

And if someone had multiple accounts, would they have any reason to admit it?

Deucey Supporting Member of TMP12 Apr 2025 9:17 a.m. PST

No. But on a poll you could vote without admitting.

Plus I admitted to 2. Sort of.

One. 🙄
I used to have more. 🙄
But I'm being a good boy.

Michael May12 Apr 2025 10:25 a.m. PST

One. Why would I need more than one? So I could argue with myself? I do enough of that in real life.

I think to have more than one is NOT against TMP rules, Though having a 'Sock Puppet' account in order to deceive is. TMP link

I may have two for similar reasons to OP from a couple of decades ago.. I think Bill was still in California then and the net was new. Haven't used it since.

Personal logo Sgt Slag Supporting Member of TMP12 Apr 2025 12:37 p.m. PST

One, currently, but in 1998, I had two: my personal account for posting on everything, and my current account for posting relating to my self-published game. My self-published game is OOP, and I don't remember my personal account, nor its p/w. I dropped my personal account, using my Sgt Slag account for everything, around 2000, I think. Cheers!

I believe the problem back in the olden times was that somebody would get themselves kicked out of TMP, then come back under a new account, and demonstrate that they had learned nothing from the experience. I don't think we've had anything like that in a while.

Just the one.

I really can't see why you'd want more than one.

"I believe the problem back in the olden times was that somebody would get themselves kicked out of TMP, then come back under a new account"

There used to be a lot of this.
