Title: Owning two accounts on this site legal or not?
Post by: judypug1956 on November 22, 2013, 05:15:21 PM
  I have  an older account.  The other day someone sent me a pm in attempt to phish my forum name and my forum password.  It occurred to me that if he had fooled me I would be screwed over big time and not able to post retractions and the like.   I do a lot of business on the site and  became very paranoid after this attempt was done.   I made this second account as a backup just in case my main hero status account was hacked and whacked.  I could not find any rule saying I can not do this. So while the account is about 1 day old I figure I should ask mods if I can do this.
 So mods can I have the second account yes or no.   If yes cool.  If no I live with my wife and she is aware that I do BTC business can she have an account at the same ip address as me?   Not looking to be sleazy in any way just trying to be safe.  Please give me an answer as to what to do. Thanks

Yeah I thought it was a good idea  for me to do after the phishing attempt on my hero account.

I'm assuming it's OK, as well. I have an established account that I'd like to have remain anonymous, so I made this account to talk about products and services I'll be offering, where I won't be anonymous.
