Ithink jone just didn't want jonathan to get the blame for something he didn't do even though now it's pretty apparent he did. What if your hated triplet seperated at birth Manny Nolan came in and asked for the value of a SMB proto that he found in a lot? We would assume that the guy was you or affiliated with you
No, I knew it was him but sometimes it is more important to understand the reason behind a rule than the rule itself. The rule is "No one gets multiple accounts". I can think of two reasons for this rule. 1) To make it harder for scammers (so they cannot mask prior feedback on another account) and 2) So Dain can accurately count the user-base (if we allowed multiple accounts, then the official users count is meaningless).
Here's an analogy... chewing gum in high school. Why is it a rule? Because the average high school teen has little regard for school property and would stick the gum to every locker, wall, desk, chair, book / etc., whether out of laziness or maliciousness.
Sure you could just expel gum chewers from school, but isn't that excessive? That's the point I was making here, thank god the people in power do not interpret the rules so literally.
