@scoot @nerthos of course technically @welcomepony is a puppet account that has been used jokingly by mods as a second account.
Wednesday, 24-Jul-13 14:01:14 UTC from web-
@pony well.. not a puppet account but it's been used as one I mean
Wednesday, 24-Jul-13 14:01:39 UTC from web -
@pony I don't think @welcomepony counts
Wednesday, 24-Jul-13 14:03:23 UTC from web-
@scoot nah

@pony @scoot I aways interpreted it as "if you make an extra account with a purpose in mind it's ok, if you make an extra account to play a second identity then that's a problem"
Wednesday, 24-Jul-13 14:03:58 UTC from web-
@nerthos I dunno, obviously I've not done anything about it, it just seems to be in a grey area.
Wednesday, 24-Jul-13 14:05:10 UTC from web-
@scoot If it comes to that we can just ask Cerulean.
Wednesday, 24-Jul-13 14:06:53 UTC from web-
@nerthos Well yeah, I'm not super bothered by it but it is technically against the rules and I'm supposed to be mindful of those or something.
Wednesday, 24-Jul-13 14:07:28 UTC from web-
@scoot Yeah, it's not like I actively use it anyway.
Wednesday, 24-Jul-13 14:08:22 UTC from web-
@nerthos Eh whatever I'll just forget about it, it's not really hurting anyone

@nerthos I like that loop hole. The rule used to be "no puppet accounts" but I think the loophole closed when it was changed to "one account." Since yours is an old puppet account I think you could argue exemption maaaaybe.

@scoot @pony Yes, but redashing with a main account is too risky right now. I mean Cerulean had to create a new one
Wednesday, 24-Jul-13 14:01:19 UTC from web-
@nerthos I've not heard of any cases of that happening since Cerulean
Wednesday, 24-Jul-13 14:02:59 UTC from web-
@scoot What exactly happened?
Wednesday, 24-Jul-13 14:03:26 UTC from web-
@xeleanorxrigbyx Cerulean and Redenchilada redashed some really old posts and then suddenly they stopped being visible on the main timeline, as though they had been sandboxed.
Wednesday, 24-Jul-13 14:04:13 UTC from web-
@scoot Ah I see. Thanks!

@scoot Better safe than sorry

@nerthos I'm not aware of any risk unless it's a naughty dash being redashed. x)
Wednesday, 24-Jul-13 14:02:59 UTC from web-
@pony What does the content of the dash have to do with anything. I think it's due to messing with old and obscure parts of the DB
Wednesday, 24-Jul-13 14:06:34 UTC from web-
@nerthos oh so it's a glitch sort of thing?
Wednesday, 24-Jul-13 14:07:38 UTC from web-
@pony Cerulean's account became il when he fished for a really old post, deleted his redash, and redashed it again. Redenchilada, who was the original account to get the disease, was the one to discover how to delete old redashes.
Wednesday, 24-Jul-13 14:09:47 UTC from web-
@nerthos I used to delete my redashes so I could redash again. I tried it several months ago and it wouldn't let me redash it though.
Wednesday, 24-Jul-13 14:11:38 UTC from web-
@pony Well there is a way to fix that, but that's what I think wrecks the accounts
Wednesday, 24-Jul-13 14:13:09 UTC from web-
@nerthos hmm.. I'm guessing that fixing it so that you can redash would be more pain than it's worth. Too bad.
Wednesday, 24-Jul-13 14:15:46 UTC from web-
@pony The issue is finding what is causing it.
