I have been in this game for about a week or so and I notice people having forum alts or other people saying post with your main
IS it ok to make a character to post on the forum with and not play in game with?
Sometimes I have dsylexia and am not come across well on the forums but this is my main name so i want to know if it is ok to have a seperate name to make forum post and also if that is ok.
thanks

Yup, just use one of the extra slots you see on the client login screen. You should name it Jenny SpitfireMkII btw for maximum lulz.

They don't care what your secondary characters are for, as long as you aren't breaking the EULA and trying to hide behind the alt (which won't work anyway because they know all the characters on an account.)

QFT. I believe that things I've posted on the forums are the main reason for more than half of the wardecs we've received...
...and I wouldn't have it any other way.

I am a forum alt.
My main just happens to look exatly like me and answer to the same name. So really they're my double, but I simply use them as a forum alt so I can post irrelevent witticisms while getting my pod blown up in game. So do not take anything my alt says as my word. Except that. Aaand that. And, um, that.
....I think you see where I'm going with this. Signatures are annoying...kinda like me. |

It is the button usually on a standard keyboard that falls in between the windows and space bar button on the bottom left. Some people press CTRL+ALT+DELETE, I like to press CTRL+SHIFT+ESC, because alts are bad |

It's a very weird community. Some people don't like to be recognized for their opinion, ingame political view, or just love to flame their corps.
Alts and second accounts permitted to write on the forums are the biggest flaw in this forum imo. Fetchez la vache !

this is my forum posting alt * I have something to say about people I am involved with but I am afraid of the consequences in case they find out who I am * I just want to post crap and not have it tarnish my main character's reputation * this is the character I post with when I'm bored/angry/drunk
this is not a forum alt * this is my scout alt from which I just happen to post now
my main is in <bigalliance> * my main in not in <bigalliance>

Xailia, you have the ability to create three characters per account. When you log in (the game, not the forum), there are three slots, the current one is larger, the other two are to the left and smaller. Double click a blank slot and you can create another character.
In the forum, if you have more than one character, there is a dropdown box textbox where you can choose what character of yours you want to post on the forum. |
