I'm not sure how many times we have to go over this, but you aren't allowed to have multiple accounts. I realize that many of you have sockpupets and "alts", but this isn't gamefaqs - when I ban someone, I ban by IP addresses that you've used in the past, so that any username you've been on is banned - thereby making it some sort of defense is kind of useless.

The following people had two accounts with the same username:
Spade
jth
flounder (three total, including james)
chewman3
upsided0wn7 (had seven accounts, three under the exact same name)

I'm not sure what the deal is, if you can't remember your password or don't like the email address its under, or don't like your username, don't create a new account - you can change the email address on your account settings page, and if you can't remember then ask me, it isn't that difficult.

So, I renamed one of each of the accounts (the one with the highest number) to have a 2 after it, so if you login and see "flounder2" as your username for example, well that's your own fault, but I can switch it around the other way - just contact me, don't create a new account.

If using IRC is just way too difficult for you and you want your email/password changed, you can email me at: theumbrellagroup@gmail.com be sure to list your username and email address you think it's under.

Other people with sockpuppets/alts:
Zero -> oblivian10
hatdude -> Hatraptor
fishin -> fish
jitsu234 -> shroom; mushroom
mike326 -> miike326
Dunncor -> sauskesucks; pokemaster1; pokemaster7; pokemasster
archibald83 -> archfury (two accounts, never verified them)
viride -> viridelangley (under same email address, former never verified)
elykcamroc -> tehrougefool; tehroguefool (first alt not verified, but both under same email)
masterfulvivi -> vivi
hansley -> kuzunoha; h
dawka -> xiaver
lucario -> muumaaji
phantomx92 -> zerox92
877askkoby -> 877askkoby9
qwerwgrebew -> dreaper; omnimonx
supertrooper -> jaegerprime
gameboy3333 -> dragonultimatum
otterwater -> theotterreturns
117 -> di
cboe -> cbred
beanfondler -> warwick
absoluteblack -> absolutezero

If there's a mistake above, i.e. you're listed as an alt for someone but you aren't really, then email with the email address I stated above - don't reply about it here. If you have an account listed that you want back, such as you lost the email to it or whatever, email me all the usernames you use, and the one you want to be your main one and I'll hook you up.

P.S. At least two of you have the password "pokemon", I suggest you change it because that's way too easy to guess (it's none of the people on the list above or anyone that's very active)

If you're wondering why I listed these publicly, it's because most people create more than one account for two reasons 1) because they screw up their other account(s) 2) because they want to use it to trick people, have someone agree with them, or to troll. Listing them publicly basically makes it impossible to do the latter. Depending on how this works out, we may have a quartly game of "spot the troll", with points for those who get it right.

Doubles by Email

These people had multiple accounts under the same email address. So, I made the lowest number stay with the same email address, the rest were changed to [username]@thehive.ws:

bobus520 -> raptor (bob.henson@gmail.com)
henderson -> darkserge (dukerson@gmail.com)
anonymous -> captainplanet; remnantsofanonymous; fortedark12311 (ironmetal250@gmail.com)
shadowlightmaster -> zodiac; renegade; superhappybikebike; amariswellsman (piemanatsomewhere@hotmail.com)

If you know any of these people, please contact them and make sure they know about this change, otherwise they might try to create yet another account. If you can't get into your account, try entering your email as "myusername@thehive.ws".

People with no email

These accounts are left over from our transition from zboards or whatever the hell it was, and they didn't prove an email address. Some of these people I know, and if any of these are your accounts, please email theumbrellagroup@gmail.com and we can put them on real email addresses for you. Please tell any friends that might be on this list:

slam25
spade
omfgitseric
aceidiot
lucky
spadethedarkone
yusuke238
link3988
istillhavealife
ryo82439
staraptor

After thinking about it for a minute I wondered if some of those people had the problem I did a year ago or so, when I'd log in and the site wouldn't reject my info, but I wouldn't be logged in, anyway. I forget if it was you or Fantasty that actually did something about it.

My two accounts were registrations I never got an email for.

edit: The fact that I have two with the same name is probably due to the fact that the original name for this account was "Flounder_" but it was changed a few months back by somebody.

thelegendaryx -> supertrooper; jaegerprime

I know for a fact SuperTrooper isn't an alt of TheLegendaryX, it's his brother.

Don't know about Jaegerprime though.

This reminds me, my brother also has an account on here, called ff__rocks. I imagine we don't show as the same IP address or whatever at the moment, because I'm not at home. But just for future reference.

I only created another account since the first got hacked. There's no use to it now.

If your account gets hacked, you report it and we take care of it. If your car gets broken into, do you just get another car, or do you report the crime and get your busted window fixed?

that is my original account that did not properly work when the switch happened, I would gladly like it back. If you don't mind use adm904a@gmail.com for the email address.
