[climbs up out of the "check user" rabbithole]

Wow.

Just having alternate accounts is not in and of itself a violation of ToU. It is how they are used. I don't have tools to see global actions or all the wikis involved, but I'll say this. Just from what I *could* see, some on this thread should be *very* glad I'm not Staff. Wow. Y'all don't want *my* advise here… not more than what I posted above.

Y'all know how many online screennames I've *ever* had? 3 or 4. Mostly I use "Love Robin" with the only variants being with/without the space, and how individual sites allow capitalization. The other 2 or 3 usernames are sites I consider important enough to gen an account for but "loverobin" is not available.

I've had my Main Username since late 80s when I first logged onto what would become AOL. Still got that one too. I was also AOL's NetGirl for a while, but that was an AOL "house account" and not mine. I have active accounts on something like 20some sites, not including the various wikias I admin for (oh yeah, add a BOT account I can't remember the last time I used it…).

So I feel comfortable with the statement I have had less Usernames *ever* than I have fingers on one hand. EVER. I've established a singular online presence, even locking down/out my name on several platforms enough, that if you come across "loverobin" chances are it's me.

I cannot *fathom* a reason to have anywhere near the number of alternate accounts I just perused. NOT without having ulterior mischief and misuse in mind. Mind you, I'm me. I don't have neither time nor energy to devote to 1/4 of what I've just seen, much less to complain about perceived slights.

Y'all should contemplate all this.
