MACKxBOLAN 431 Posted August 30, 2023 I want to disagree with the nomenclature. A 'Re-Roll' is when someone pays for an extra character slot, or destroys the character they have, and starts over with a new name. Hence the term Re-roll, cuz they are Rolling up the levels again. Some of you may call this an 'ALT'. An Alt to me is an Alternate Account, which was legal at one time, as long as you didn't exploit or trade with yourself. I had an Alt account used to help with a beta test or something. Ive long forgotten the passwords.  However back then I was temp banned by Matt like 3 days. and I used that extra account to mess around cuz i was bored, and someone who knew i was banned said they could then ban the second account if they knew.  Again I forgot that account n only run one account with several slots. but this brings out a whole new can of worms.  In the old days games would IP ban people, now with nordstrom or wtf ever ip roaming, this would be hard to do to a determined banned player.  Then there is the concept that, well what if my brother, son, friend who lives in the same place wants to play, What if a whole family wants to play at once. So one breaks the rules n gets banned, now whats to stop that person from playing on say his Wife, or Son's account?  p.s. thats if you believe anyone is getting banned anymore, my 2 cent's Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Â Â I can only find that bit on suspended access. I don't see anything saying you can't have more than 1 account. However, I can see LO twisting their words to ban you for having multiple accounts, since they only say "account" and not "accounts" when referring to the end user's account.

vsb 6171 Posted August 30, 2023 Rerolling after a ban was something G1 (inconsistently) enforced, i don’t think orbit cares as long as you aren’t continuing the original banned behavior Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know people who've traded accounts, then immediately had said account banned. Their mains were unaffected. There's lots of name trading too but people don't get banned for it.

Deftonez 125 Posted September 1, 2023 the whole concept of "re-rolling" is hilarious because all it is is someone making a new character but G1 was like "erm! you can't do that!" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

From my interpretation, you can make a new account if you haven't been suspended. Many creators have multiple accounts for extra space to store music and symbols. You can also purchase character slots. G1 isn't stopping you.  During the "overkill" server era, G1 gave out character slots when regional worlds were down. I got 7 or so character slots from that.

locknloadzz 1 Posted September 15, 2023 What in the nomenclature is this?? A re-roll isn't necessarily a cheater it's someone who max out the levels and start all over again so eg. You max out pick up a star556 and trashing everyone who you can and automatically you being called a cheater who low rank.  I do it when I use to play this game often now I just mostly lurk on forum back when bloom was present because you learn something new everytime and you need to learn the game one account or character isn't going to cut it you need more than that. With that said hope it's more clear. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
