    Multiple User ID's

    I think it should be against the rules for a user to have more than one ID on zeropaid.

    Aliases are commonly used for such underhanded things as trolling, bashing, giving oneself positive rep and voting multiple times on the same poll.

    The ability to give oneself positive rep under an alias makes a mockery of the reputation system.

    Let's make it against the rules to have more than one ID.

    I've given you your chance to vote on this crucial issue right now. Just don't vote on it with more than one alias, please.

    There's nothing humorous here buddy. This is a serious issue.

    If someone has behaved in such a rotten manner as to be handed a ban, then they don't deserve any rep, nor should they be coming back to post under an alias.

    1. The reputation system makes a mockery of human interaction. It should be spread around to the greatest extent allowed until it becomes entirely meaningless.

    There has always been a rule against it if the alias was used to troll.

    Something tells me the poll is already a bit skewed.

    You've got to have pretty big balls to have more than one alias.

    I agree to a certain degree. I understand about unfair use of the reputation system... but that's what needs to be changed. Just like you need a certain amount of posts to create a thread, how about you need a certain amount to give rep... this may also be applicable to the voting system, I think that would work out better for everyone.

    Regarding the spam/trolls... as long as the internet has it's anonymity... your still gonna get asshats everywhere.

    I suppose the site's uppity-ups should put their heads together and decide if the rep system is really a joke or if it's a super serious business.

    numbers are very serious....useful even

    however trolling and silly dipshits trying to raise their own rep are hardly a threat to the world as we know it
