I might be wrong but I think having a multiple accounts is not against the forum however abusing the merit system for ranking up the alt account clearly shows that they violate the forums rules and regulations.
Well i may not be a reputable user of this forum but still want to make this forum neat again, I will leave a negative trust to each users (Even though it will not pop out to their profiles) Commending for this kind of work.
PS. I think this should be posted in the reputation section.
I think, This could be an offense to forums policy for having multiple accounts. But we can say here that we need more strong evidence to pointing out some of this mention names that they don't follow the forum's policy. Having of multiple accounts for the sake of bounty campaign will have an impact in the forum. Bumping, Trolling, Merit's abuse etc.. For the fairness this forum was created to spread knowledge and share ideas and thoughts about Crypto and blockchain. So, why is it need to create more account if you can still use your 1st account.?
