Owning multiple accounts in WeeWar is a generally accepted practice as long as they aren’t used for evil. Droning, or secretly controlling another player in a multiplayer game, is a good way to get blacklisted and shunned, the same goes for point harvesting.

There are many legitimate uses for multiple accounts including but not limited to:

  • 2 Pro accounts for more games
  • More Map storage
  • Map testing
  • Playing multiple team members in a team game
  • Keeping yourself company on slow days in chat or the forums

Be sure to clearly mark in your profile of your secondary account that it is a secondary account and what your primary account is. This is very important to allow other players to gauge your real skill level. It’s also very important to remember to check your secondary account for games, it can be easy to forget about that other account and leave people hanging waiting on your turn.

Managing your second account is easiest if you use 2 web browsers, but that can leave you without your nice Greasemonkey scripts. Today I can across a very handy little add-on – Multifox – that lets you have different login credentials between tabs Firefox instance windows! Be sure to give it a try, it should let you run 2 accounts within firefox, giving you full access to your scripts without the need to login/logout to get to your second account.

What so you use your multi-account for? Any tips for running multiple accounts?
