From today on, users will be restricted to one account with a special rank (elder+) Your most active account will have the rank. However, if they are equally used and neither one can be considered "more commonly used" then both accounts will have the rank. That is a minority however, so in most cases you won't have more than one account with a special rank.

We're sorry for inconvenience this may cause. It was a necessary consensus that the currently active mods and admin came to.

Following this change, I believe Cyros is the only person who has 2 ranked accounts.

I take it that this was issued so we don't have to keep upranking people with alt accounts?

I assume the rankings are for the minecraft game only, right?

also I have seen that our post counters don´t keep going up sometimes, is it because a random error or that it is disabled in the RP section?

Have you ever crossed the line between sanity and madness? You would be amazed by what lies beyond the fog..

That, and it clogs up the roster with a bunch of unnecessary names. Hard to keep track when we have a dozen alts among the list.

I don't know, sorry, I don't moderate the RP section.

Post counters were disabled by Remi; I don't know exactly why, but maybe because of machine gun posting? I honestly, don't know why.

My software doesn't have bugs. It just develops random features.
Do you have a hour emergency call systems broadcasting radio station WNYW or Internet Explorer? Well? Which one?

Regarding the events of last night, I've done some thinking. I don't think it is fair for me to be the only exception to this rule for a few reasons:

1. I never considered Hartmanns_Youkai to be a main account. Cyros is my main account and Hartmanns_Youkai is my alternate. Sure, I use it a lot, but I only got it to have a Koishi npc on the server. I also like using it because it's Koishi.

2. It creates a bad atmosphere among other members. I don't want to have 'special privileges' with alternate accounts where nobody else can.

3. Last night with the release of DDC, I claimed the remaining five characters, keeping one for myself, and giving other active members on the server the other ones that they wanted to be. With that, I now have a third account, which I will most likely be using as often as I have been with Cyros and Hartmann. Does that mean all three of my accounts can be elder? I don't think that's fair.

With that said, I'd prefer to have Cyros be my main account, and the other two to be my alternates. I like to keep things fair like everyone else.


Also, if I may make a suggestion. Not sure if this would be too much work, but would it be possible to change the title of alternate accounts to "Alternate" but still be child/adult rank?
