Multiple Accounts

I think it would be nice to be able to make maybe a maximum of 2 other accounts under the same email. That's what I did, but I had to create a whole new email for my other account ~alexrashidphotos:iconalexrashidphotos: for my photography just because you can't share emails. And to make sure people don't...troll or something with a second account, maybe in that little info box that says your country, age, name, birthday ect, it can list your other account(s).

Because, maybe you draw traditionally, but you also want to post your writing, but not on your traditional account.

I do see the downside of this though: entering raffles more than once, trying to...I don't know. But people will think of things.

I don't know if this will work out, but it would be nice.

Yeah, don't see that coming back in anytime soon. You'd still have to log out and log back in to use a second account, it only inconveniences you for a few minutes when you make a new account.

To the people who don't understand why people would want to have more accounts: Some people prefer to publish certain types of art under a different name than the one that's linked to their public identity. People who model or photograph nude art come to mind, or people who are into certain fetishes or fandoms. They still want to participate in those fandoms or communities, just under a seperate identity.

We used to be able to have multiple accounts per e-mail, but it was changed (I believe) to help cut down on spammers and make it harder for them to create multiple accounts. It probably won't be changing back.

Are you kidding? It is easy to make multiple accounts under the same email. I'm sure all the troll accounts have only one email. That would explain how they make so many.
