I seen two some people with ____ and ____1, example: Hacker, Hacker1. Though the name is not as common as hacker. It’s just an example. Are alts allowed?

I guess, you should ask staff before making alt.But to be sure, lets ping @staff

You can make alts in the game, but you can’t make alts on the Discourse.

It’s not allowed. In CodeCombat, yes. However, I believe it specifically says not to have an alt on the discourse.

There is an exception if you lose your account password and come on with an alt. Or something happens to your account so you have to ask the mods in an alt account to help.

Chaboi said in the rules, no ban evasion with alts, and no boosting likes with alts.

I was asking about alts in game. Like people make 2 in giants gate to help them get up rank.

To help yourself get rank? No you can’t, but if you like want to be testing stuff on your alt, then yeah, you can have one.

Ok, Cuz I test on an anonyomous. I have like thousands of those.

So, for the coco games, you can use alts, but only your main account counts and gets the prize.

Ok, cuz I have 10000 anonymous accounts which I get from copy pasting my code and trying to speedrun simple CPU on anonyomous cuz then it won’t count towards my real code on my only account.

13

Yeah but listen and consider this it never says you cant have an alt if you are not using it for ban evasion or boosting like am I right so it should be okay especially since I made this because I forgot my pass on Archipelago but just recently figured it out.

14

So go back to your account. Your not allowed to have alts, it’s the rules

15

Fine then if it makes you guys feel better :<

I will delete arcipelago

16

It doesn’t.
I’d rather have archi but it’s your account.

Sorry for bumping this. But in my opinion, I think that alts are allowed, but alts of banned users/suspended users aren’t allowed.

Yes as long as you don’t use them to boost your likes

I made a topic specifying about this, and Deadpool replied to me. Here is his post:

" An alt is actually defined as this:
“ Alt is an account that is made by the same user of another account and pretends to be someone different.”
I said:

So basically I said you can change your account, but you can’t use more than one account concurrently, which is an alt. So I said you can’t make alts, the misunderstanding is about what an alt is it seems.

After reading all of these comments, It is pretty clear that alts are not allowed.

According to Danny, you can create another account (an alt), and choose to use that alt account instead of your original account. You shouldn’t, however, use both accounts simultaneously.
