User:FancyRat/Policy/Multiple accounts

Here at Splatoon Fanon, we do not tolerate the use of multiple accounts.

---

Users are not permitted more than one account. This is to ensure fairness on voting for community issues, preventing role-playing, preventing avoiding blocks, and properly attributing content to authors. Splatoon Fanon has a high standard to maintain: spammy, ghost, or alternative accounts do not reflect this standard. Users found to be using multiple accounts may be blocked from editing. If you see any abuse of multiple accounts, please notify an administrator immediately.

Forgotten password

Users are expected to remember their own passwords. Writing passwords in a safe location, whether physically or digitally off-line is encouraged. In the case of a forgotten password, creating a new account should be a last resort. It is typically easy to recover passwords, because web browsers remember them. Navigate through the menu to find your password:

• Apple iPhone: iPhone Settings > Passwords (help)
• Apple Mac: Apple menu > System Settings > Passwords (help)
• Chrome: Profile > Passwords (help)
• Edge: Menu > Settings > Passwords (help)
• Firefox: Menu > Passwords (help)
• Opera: Settings > Advanced > Privacy & security > Autofill > Passwords (help)

If the password cannot be recovered, reset the password (valid email address must be associated with the account).

If the password cannot be reset, create a new account and stop using the old account. Let an admin know the account use has changed. There is no punitive action against using a new account if the old account's password has been forgotten.

Exceptions

Users may have different accounts for bots, as long as edits are not being done manually.

Consequences of multiple account abuse

Administrators have the right to block any user for any amount of time. They may also determine if an account is a duplicate, and if its infraction counts as minor or major. Repeated or severe offenses may lead to permanent blocking.
