Graingy Survey: How Do You Use Alts?

35.4k Graingy  15 days ago

Alt accounts!
Side accounts to your main. They can be used for many things, some legal, some not. We're talking about legal uses here.

So, if you have one, what do you use it for?
Is it a dumping ground for failed/old/low quality craft?
Is it a glorified backup server (i.e. like the prior except not public)?
Do you use it as an alt identity to back up yourself in arguments?
Is it a place to say insane crap? (Like mine!)
Did you make it for a single joke, only to never use it again?
Something else entirely?

No, we will not be handing out treats to the cutest/best groomed alt.
Dogs. You're thinking of dogs.

    @overlord5453 Like hell I know. I only made my alt because I needed an alt email for something. Might as well use it, eh?

    @Graingy really? I thought the email needs to be varified.

    Hey ummm I might make an alt account for like a social experiment.
    Post a single mediocre aircraft with something along the lines of
    “Hello SimplePlanes! New user here!”
    And see how long it takes to hit platinum.

    @overlord5453 What? No!
    The site is completely separate from the game. They have no connection whatsoever so far as registration goes. There is a population here who got their account before getting the game. @TheUltimatePlaneLover you apply, right?

    Used to be a dumping grounds of bad things, literally now a dumping ground for anything old and anything I didn’t post on my main 4 to 5 years ago.

    To create an alt, just log out, and create a new account. You can reuse the same email if you add periods in between a letter, like this: BobBob@Gmail.com becomes Bob.bob@gmail.com and can then be reused. (Emails shown are not mine)
    Just remember how it is set up with the dots, otherwise you can lose it.
