I think as regular readers of CD we've all seen some alts of a guy recently who really loves Misaka from Toaru recently... What do you guys do when you stumble upon such a case? Do you go out of your way to find out more conclusive evidence that it's an alt and report, or do you just report people with pretty much nothing in their lists who post in CD right away, or perhaps do you do nothing at all?

Previously I and another user were tragically accused of being alts of the Toaru lover by one of the many netizens of mal whom I hold dear. While I do suspect the other user who was accused of being an alt I definitely wouldn't say I suspect this user of being an alt of the Toaru lover... Instead I suspect this user of being an alt of the thread starter of some threads that got necrod earlier this month but the evidence is all flimsy and circumstantial.

While I don't personally mind the alts and even came to appreciate them after viewing a helpful post about studying Japanese I hope they're taken care of, so that I due to my low postcount do not suffer the misfortune of being accused to be an alt once again... I-I'm here trying to be an idol, without a vpn or anything and living only a single life with one account. S-So please I urge you to not be presumptious and work on gathering conclusive evidence instead of haphazardly accusing people when innocent peoples life, their sole account is at stake.

The only Alts I like are Alt-J. Anything else is cringe or cowardly. That being said I would never report someone cuz I ain’t no snitch. Better to just turn a blind eye anyway as there's pretty much never conclusive enough evidence to accuse someone. These kind of things usually end up as senseless witch hunts as a result.

You should totally get a VPN tho.

Shoot, I had been thinking about making a thread about alts myself but haven't found the time. Not in regards to reporting but asking why people do it. I was hoping you had read my mind. Oh well.

Anyway, I've only known two alts and I only reported one not because they were an alt but for a different reason.

Well, I have publicly stated that some users were alts before, but even if I'm sure of it, I can't bother to gather proof and make a report. In those cases they were just infamous users and I was letting people know.

Not everyone who makes alts does it with a bad intent. Some have personal reasons to hide their identity or start anew, and others just want to keep their hentai in a different account. I don't think it's my place to snitch in these cases, so I just keep quiet.

Wait.

We can report people for being alts ?

Like, ban those fuckers ?

Oh God

I don't because I don't really want to bother taking the time to report anything.

I have been accused of having alts before though

I know that if a mention a certain someone, they will create a new alternative account and post more disgusting content, so I will refrain from giving any further details—though everyone understood who I was talking about. Of course, I reported him and a few other accounts in the past.

There is also the Judas who sent me a picture of the mutilated body of a dead child. Do you really think that I do not know who you are? Coward.

Banning an alt doesn't solve the problem as MAL has no system in place to prevent those very same people from creating a new account and starting to troll right away.

Meanwhile, congratulations to the mod that deleted the friendzone thread despite violating neither rule 6 nor rule 7. All that while a thread about burning people alive is kept on the front pages of CD for almost a month.

Hell, I'd volunteer myself at this point, but that means I have to stop posting, and I'm pretty sure I'm above the upper age limit anyway.

Omg a mortal sin, making an alt account!!! What kind of sick fuck would even do that?!?

Is what I would ironically think, but actually I don't have one.

Still, I don't see anything wrong with a new account here or there. Just go ahead and switch to it, though.

the majority of time somebody accuses somebody of being an alt, it's a no life "forum culture" gatekeeper with thousands of posts who's butthurt by the fact that more than one person holds some opinion he disagrees with. I've been accused of being somebody's alt lots of times and it's never true.

when you accumulate thousands of posts you inevitably become the forum equivalent of some paranoid old lady who thinks the mailman is stealing your meds, a sad and boring busybody keeping tabs on the height of the grass the neighbor's lawn. don't be this old lady. don't be a Meusnier, don't be a Moonspeak, don't be an Auron.

Depends on their motivation behind making the alt. Some people do it for the hell of it, which is fine, no harm no foul. The few times I reported alts were people who were rightfully banned for being fucked up or just posting fucked up shit in general and tried to go at it again with a new account, but the whole alt thing is really a secondary factor in these cases tbh.

I do techincally have an alt that I made after MAL shut down in like 2017 I think? I was too lazy to recover this account at first cause it was tied to some ancient e-mail address and it took me a while to figure out the password.

While I do technically have MAL seniorship, I'd nevertheless like to frame of it as me being compared to you for various reasons. Sadly here it seems like our parallels start an end with being disliked by the troll.
