Alternate Accounts & Evasion
Do not use another account to avoid a ban, timeout, channel restriction, verification step, block, rate limit, or staff instruction. Passive viewing or relaying messages through another person during an active restriction can also constitute evasion.
Accounts reasonably linked by admissions, behaviour, shared identifiers, or other reliable evidence may be reviewed together. Staff should use the minimum information necessary and must not publicly expose technical or personal identifiers.
Moderation history may be associated across confirmed alternate accounts. Legitimate household members are not automatically the same person, but they may be asked to avoid conduct that makes attribution impossible.
