Do you not think that you should only be able to maybe deact then react maybe 3 or 4 times? Rather than the 5 times a day some people use?
I know a certain member on here deacts one account for a couple of days then reactivate his other account for a couple of days. Over and over again.
Which i find abusing the system; because technicily he/she/it will always have two accounts with this.

I agree. It's ridiculous the way that member is using the feature and it's definitely abusing the system imo never seen anyone else use it the way he is. I think 3 times would be plenty....may as well just scrap the multiple accounts rule really if you can just keep deactivating then reactivating as many times as you want.
I think that user just does it for attention more than anything else, he seems that type of person.

Lol, I don't know who your on about but it's true!
Why make a rule 1 account per person when I can play on each of them 1 week at a time as i'm able to re-activate whenever I choose to!

not after 7 days of not pressing the button you can't
but i agree with you all, i don't know if this person knows he is abusing the system or not, maybe just a quiet word to him about it?

What's the problem with this? As long as he doesn't use multiple accounts to gain an advantage, it should be fine?

see what your saying seb and i see both points, if the 2nd account has just friendly games it won't be as bad as 2nd account with ranked on it.

What I'm saying is that if they're never activated at the same time, it's not against the rules. He can play friendly or ranked.
I'm just having a hard time understanding what the problem is.

Your not even allowed to have a 2nd account to just play friendly games, thats not gaining an advantage either, so i can't see why this should be allowed.
This isn't the reason why it is there.

Have more than 2 accounts is against site rules, If you have one account which you play serious with and a other just for knocking about with its against site rules.

You are just been stubbern, You are just wanting to disagree for the sake of disagreeing!
It is wrong, swapping about 5 or 6 times in a seven day period.

No, I am not. Maybe if you can tell me what advantage this player is getting, I can agree with you.

2nd accounts are not allowed under any circumstances. It is exactly as it says here:
http://www.funkysnooker.com/thread/8191/2nd-accounts-on-funky
About the player you are talking about, if you have a problem with what they are doing then use contact us about it, the forum is not the place to discuss the actions of a member.

ive always been told a friendly account is alright, even to this day, admin don't usually check for 2nd accounts but if one is announced in forum it is banned.
seen a couple banned that way.

I also don't see the problem here at all? As whocares said, what advantages are they getting from doing this? I can't see any.

we have recently asked for clarification about it and no 2nd accounts are allowed at all. Sam's post stands.

The person who does it be loving this as he loves attention this way, He be telling the boys down the beach about it!
Its just completely pointless one day your dot_dot_dot and the next day you are mr_dot etc. just absolutley pointless.
The feature was bought in to stop people deacting without thinking it through not to play on another account with a newbie rank, then go back to your high proffesional ranking the next day!
