Sockpuppeting (ATBW Blog)

On ATBW Blog, Sockpuppeting is the act of evading a site ban while under a different persona, usually having a different username and profile. It is not to be confused with Ban Evasion, which is evading a site ban while using an account with similar username and profile as their main one. Each of the 12 ATBW Blog companies have their own rules in regards to having more than one account, but it is a serious violation of ATBW Holdings's policies to bypass measures placed by either of them and those caught doing so can risk having their IP address banned from using any the company's sites.

Sockpuppeting also sometimes involves playing with more than one account, often while pretending to be someone else. This is also considered to be a violation of ATBW Holdings's policies and the suspected accounts are deleted.
