I was refused entry to a Newbie game by Moderator 'PenguinPowers' because of two accounts that I have. One was created in 2014 and was never used, I couldn't even find it in the members search and the other was created in 2017, was activated, but a post had never been made. Why should I be interrogated and held to ransom over accounts I made years ago when I was a teenager. I was accused of being an "alt". The accounts were never ever used, so I'm not an alt. Just because I signed up years ago, doesn't mean anything. I just signed up based on recommendations and must have been busy around the time and never got around to playing any games on this site. Why should I be prevented from playing games when I never even used the accounts? Makes me want to leave again and never come back. I found it very rude tbh. So what, I made a couple of accounts years ago, which by the way I barely remember making. They were never used so I don't see the big deal. This site isn't special, I should be allowed to play games without being accused of an ALT. If I had played multiple games and posted on an account and then signed up to another account and tried to play, then that would make me an alt. But just because I signed up to this site years ago and never got around to playing a game, because I was busy at the time, doesn't make me an alt at all.
our chat, conversation starts at the bottom. I was ignored after my last reply

No, I'm saying who cares? Because it doesn't really matter. Those accounts were made years old. Pretty sure Jaydogg was created when I was like 14 and probably wasn't even activated as I can't seem to find it when searching for it, so how about you just stop making a big deal aboit it? As if I'm gonna remember signing up to a stupid site which I never ended up using. Your just wasting my time tbh, if it's such a big fucking deal to you then remove the accounts then and find something better to do then interrogate someone who's done nothing wrong. I would understand if I have signed up and was a troll, but the accounts you were referring to were never used and were made years ago.

To be clear - we have gone from you denying that you were an alt and never having played on this site to “who cares.”
This is an alt account and you cannot /in as a newbie on this account. If you need help recovering your main account I can assist with that.
by GodofWar
Platinum, an account which has no posts and has never played in any games, so I don't get where you got the idea from that that account has played in many games. Jaydogg is an account that doesn't even exist when I search it up. So honestly who cares, wouldn't exact consider them alt accounts when they were made randomly years ago and never used.
by GodofWar
Oh who really cares? They were made years ago and I rarely remember doing so, so wouldn't consider them alt accounts at all.
by PenguinPower
That account is also associated with the account platinum which has played in games as well as several alt accounts.

And account that's never been used? I can't seem to find it when searching for members. Should I really be inteorgatted on an account I made years ago and never used? I probably signed up and never decided to play a game.

That's a wild accusation, I'm not on an alt. I've never played on this site on my life

/in as newbie
Alts are not allowed to join as a newbie. You will need to /in on your main or wait until this account qualifies as an SE.
New members do not deserve to be interrogated in this. And this admin just completely ignored me when I tried to sign up again. He eventually just straight up ignored me after I rightfully defended myself
@PenguinPower
I don't think this is the best way to resolve the issue. You always have the option of going up the chain of command privately if you feel you have been personally wronged by a moderator. The next step would be to contact a different list moderator such as T-Bone or implosion (a full list is available here), explain your grievances, and wait for their response. If you aren't satisfied with that, you can then appeal to Zoraster. I would advise however to try to frame it in a more neutral way than the way it is written here.
Hi GodOfWar. An alternate account of a 0 poster is still an alternate account. Just to clarify, what do you need help with - are you looking for help with recovering your main?

No, I was a teen when I made my old account and I don't like the name at all. I want to be able to use this as a main

PenquinPower ignored me. Another admin is helping cool. Still, new members shouldn't be harrassed and interrogated over an account made years ago. Big fucking deal. PenquinPower was rude about it, so I was rude back.
I see no rudeness from PP. Only thing I see missing there they should have mentioned the other accounts name in the first place.
But seeing as the account 'platinum' has on record 25 posts including what looks to me like game ruining behaviour, I certainly think everything PP had written there is correct.
