RE: Reasoning behind the Exclusion list, An Apology, and Time for a Change of Plan

in #witness-category6 years ago (edited)

45k active users? If that’s true I feel both thankful and concerned at the same time.

Thankful that I found this little place and concerned that there must be a large number of these people holding a very large number of accounts each.

Sort:  

While I don't know what the number of active users is either, let's not start another rumor on faulty logic. We already have too many people running around saying things that are not true.

Here is just one example of the faulty logic. More than one account sending to the same address.

Maybe the address is a payment place for a seller of goods, or a bot account. Or in my specific case, a trading account I share with my husband. You can't trust assumptions made on assumptions.

Well, I have 13, just as an example. I think tying one user per account into the rest of these things is pretty poor - maybe find a way to whitelist one account per user instead if that's something you really want. Although I don't really see any value in excluding the posting/curation accounts just because I have them separated out instead of posting 30x/week on my main.

A lot of the most-community-minded people here have multiple accounts. Curie isn't a person, nor is OCD, nor is SNDBOX, and so on. Putting them on a master exclusion list is pretty much the height of insanity.

I have a couple of accounts as well. They serve different purposes. One was set up for my online store for example.

I see no problem with having a few accounts, as long as rhey’re not used for questionable behaviour.

So do I, I have a brand account for my online business and I had set up an account for zappl but dont use it.

"concerned that there must be a large number of these people holding a very large number of accounts each"

I can confirm this is the case

Something wrong with having multiple accounts?
