Hello
I am just curious for your reasons to have a second eve account ?
My reason is, since my first account is based on a fighter, pvp and missions I decided to make the 2nd one with purposes for low space mining while my other account provides Recon or Battle support. An addition to make isk instead of just mission running.
Curious to read about your reasons

Because my main was so busy training PVP stuff I never got around to training any useful mission ships.

*if* I set up another account I'd get all three pilots on the account producing datacores and managing sales.

I used to have two pc's next to each other - I had one guy set up with great resists and a shield booster but mainly set for damage, the second account was setup for remote shield boosting and loot collection/ salvaging.

Because there are just some things in EvE that require more than one player and its far easyer to pay for an additional account in hard currency or GTC to have another account on at the same time instead of relying on a second player.

Because I didn't want to train another race's Cruiser 5, BS 5, and T2 Weapons on my main. 
This is a slippery slope, though. With enough time you find yourself buying three copies of Carrier skillbooks because you have nothing else to train.

Wait, you only have two accounts? Noob.
^The above was once spoken to me by an alliance mate from a long long time ago.
I do not endorse the opinion, however there are some people it seems who have multiple accounts for one reason: because they can.

I don't. I think CCP is moving into the wrong direction with this. They keep on 'forcing' people into 2 accounts. Mining is a good example. Can flipping is a big problem for people with one account, but it isn't for people with 2 or more accounts. Instead of giving players some sort of option against can flipping, they advertise to get 2 accounts!

Why a 2nd account ?
Would you trust a warp-in-spot for your titan on a gatecamp that is not made by your alt ?
Or would you cyno into the dark with your titan not knowing how it looks on the other side ?

I stick to one character only because I'm so hardcore.
Nah. I just think the game is expensive enough for me as it is.

Thanks for all that supported me. Let me know if there's anything I can do for you.

I have several accounts. Mainly because i want to experience a lot of the different paths in eve without having to "jack of all trades" my main. I have 1 for combat (primary isk earner/main), 1 miner, 1 combat/hauler future rorq pilot, 1 research, 1 manufacturer, 1 more for fun to skill up amarr caps and such.
I can afford the accounts so went to town. I don't like to miss out on part of the experience and love being really good at tasks

Main: Evil pirate, nothing but combat skills.
Alt: Brings me shinies to suicide into logoon traps. Mines my wealth back to replace aforementioned shinies. Also to mock corpmates who are aghast that they can't shoot the slow, fat Bustard full of t2 ships and mods.
Probably the same as around 30% of people with two accounts, with 20% using them to tag-team missions and 50% as Falcon alts :p
