Hello, I plan on roleplaying on OSRS but have a question. I saw on one of the sticky threads that having an alt account is frowned upon? I am mainly using the alt for a second house, and as a different persona. if it is frowned upon, can someone help me find out why and if it is frowned upon work with me to get to a point where it isnt? thank you.

Hey there! Welcome to RSRP! I think what you're referring to is this;

CrocoNuts said :
• Alternate accounts
Though harmless when used to portray a multitude of characters at a given time, the creation of a fake online persona behind an alt-account is heavily frowned upon.
Your actions may be ignored due to this being deemed unethical

And if that's the case, then don't worry. Primarily this problem exists on RS3 as there's a pretty nasty habit among some players where they'll create an alt account and either use it to troll the forums anonymously, or they'll try to re-integrate in to communities with the intent of disrupting or misleading players in directions that's more favorable to their main accounts' agendas.

However, generally people will be disappointed to learn that the two people they're friends with happen to be the same person, because it leads to distrust and the feeling of not actually knowing who the person is. "If they can fake another self that easily, are they even real with me in the first place?" I'd recommend making it known to your friends and RP buddies which accounts are yours so that there's no confusion down the line. The Sicarius |

They think they are "the many", and I "the few". They think this gives them the right to walk over me.
