I'm an alt and I still don't know what to put on here

I'm not sure exactly what you mean by "being an alt," but one of our rules is to stick to one username across PPC spaces as much as possible. That's so we know who we're talking to, and "Me" does not help. Please abide by our rules. Thank you.

I decided to join the board first before I got an account by Me on 2024-02-13 19:04:49 UTC Reply

And I really just wanted to know how everyone reacted to alternate accounts

Are you referring to a Wiki account? Or a Discord account? Or what? by Linstar on 2024-02-13 20:04:01 UTC Edited Reply

Assuming you meant the former, which is my guess, welcome! I do hope you can choose a name less confusing than "Me" for the Board. Given that your email appears to be of one "Em McLaughlin", perhaps that?

Anyway, the Board is our main community space and interaction here is the main thing we do around here. You don't need to have an account to edit the wiki, but you do need to have a good reason for your edits. If you want to familiarize yourself with the basics, check out the Original Series and be sure to read the Constitution. Please do make it clear who you are cross-platform, however!

I hope this clarifies things,

Edit: If you're Bognil, then please just say so. You don't need another account.

Well, uh, if you know your email, username, and password by Linstar on 2024-02-13 21:11:38 UTC Edited Reply

you should be able to sign in to the same account on multiple devices. I know I use more than one device with this account.

Also, that applies to FANDOM too. Unless you lose your password or something, you should only need one account.

Edit: What is "Here" about? Why did you say that?

Ah, I did not know that, too late now. by Bognil’s other computer on 2024-02-13 23:38:18 UTC Edited Reply

And the “here” means on the board

Uh, not too late? You can just use your Bognil account for both computers. by Linstar on 2024-02-14 00:00:54 UTC Reply

Of course, as long as you clearly identify yourself as Bognil, I suppose it doesn't really matter what your root account is.

Ah. Well, it’s times like these I wish I knew that. by Bognil’s other computer on 2024-02-14 00:11:21 UTC Reply

Now it went through all the trouble of signing up and finding the confirmation email after I unknowingly put it in the trashcan. i’m just hoping I can change my username so I won’t have to change it manually every time I post.

You can indeed! Simply click on "edit your profile" below the welcome at the top of the page. by Linstar on 2024-02-14 00:12:46 UTC Reply

You can change your name from there.

Thank you (in all caps even though that’s considered the bad thing by PPC standards) (nm) by Bognil’s other computer on 2024-02-14 01:39:40 UTC Reply
