Well there are numerous reasons. Maybe you want one business and one personal account and not to mix the two. Maybe you might want to sell or talk/promote something that is considered controversial by some or maybe you want to discuss politics etc without it effecting the way people perceive or do business with you here.

Hm, sounds like a quite good reason. Good point.
But you agree that there is no need to have more than 5 accounts for sure? The persons who participate in the bounty campaign with multi accounts, they most likely have more than 5 accounts, and they are posting from all 5 thus increasing the spam level on the whole forum. I would say that technically possible to create limitations based on MAC/Hardware address, for instance, there are 2 accounts allowed per one device. The business people will be happy enough and bounty-cheaters will be down. 
Multiple accounts are not prohibited on this forum, you can have 5 accounts as long as you have purposes on creating that many accounts.
What not allowed is to use multiple accounts and enrolls it to a signature/bounty campaign, that is considered cheating (you taking spots of other users) and can lead to a massive spam.

What hilarious described are still normal for multiple account, and are allowed by the community.

to reduce multiple account bounty with merits system is enough, maybe we just wait how effectively this merit system works to reduce spamers
It's already effective, just like at how many people protested at Meta just because they can't create quality posts Tongue
Not counting how many alts are posting on the same topic Meta Roll Eyes
I agree creating multiple accounts are not prohibited, but make sure that you can't used it in cheating because if you do that I assure to you that all accounts you have will be banned. There's a lot of people do that before but they are not smart enough to care their accounts. In a very simple things they are detecting that they used multiple accounts due to using 1 wallet address. But now there are no people trying to do that again.
