I'm a little bit confused about number eighteen (18) on the forum rules, I have seen some users in the forum get in trouble and some get negative trust for having multiple accounts in the forum, but here it clearly says that it's allowed. I really don't understand it or am I missing out on something? I really need some explanation!

People usually get negative trust for abusing multiple accounts, not for just having multiple accounts.
An example is participating in a signature campaign with multiple accounts.

Even that's allowed, and I've even been invited to do so with my Mobile account. It gets shady if you join the same campaign with more than one account, without discussing that with the manager.

@AmaGold70: don't confuse forum rules for community feedback. Not breaking the rules means you won't get banned, but you can still get negative feedback if you're untrustworthy.

Thank You very much 🙏
I've been roaming around all the while looking for these rules being a Newbie and I'm glad I finally found solace... Good luck to myself on My Journey through in the forum and Grace to rank up and to My fellow Newbies as Well. AMEN

I'm new to this forum and I'm a bit confused about the forum rule number eighteen (18), I've seen some forum users get in trouble and some get negative credit for having multiple accounts on the forum, but it clearly says it's allowed.

I am unsure why you quoted that post from 2014, as it was not related to rule 18...

In any case, to answer you... This is the rule... and it's pretty self-explanatory...:

18. Having multiple accounts and account sales are allowed, but account sales are discouraged.

So the possession of multiple is allowed, as you see... There should be no issue with having more than one account. However, those which got in trouble were users which used their alts for shenanigans, such as for cheating signature campaigns; for breaking financial deals; or other similar activities. So if you want to use a secondary account and use it in a legit way, you will not have any problems.
