I've got to say that if these types of alts are allowed to run wild while other people are told to stfu and go away then...well...this isn't the place boobs built.
It is. But you seem unaware of how Poal runs.
Alt have always been tolerated because we (Boobs and I) always refused to have anon posts/comments.
Plenty of early Poalrs are using alts for that reason. It's nothing out of ordinary.
As the ToS mentions:
Using alt accounts to tamper votes for your own gain or to target someone else's account will result in all your related accounts restricted and votes cancelled.
Which means targeting users (with upvotes/downvotes).
Simo (and his alts) hasn't done that or he would have been banned already.
What when those account are used to target and disrupt subs?
Or to bypass bans?
Or in attempts to dox people?

Mods of the subs can handle these, unless they are using several alts to flood/slide specific subs, which is a violation of the ToS
Or in attempts to dox people?
If you are making a reference to Simo, I don't see any attempt at doxing. He asked you a question, and you are free to answer or not.
Please also remember:
No doxing. Users agree not to post sensitive information relating to other user's real world identities without their express consent.
Users are solely responsible for their own personal information if they choose to share it on the site.
Tell me one more thing. Is Simo's alt also PotatoNiggerHate?
Ive been around for awhile but I'll say that, yes, I've not been aware of the amount of alts certain people have. Do you at least see where I'm coming from on the spam/slide issue? If a new person came around and was doing the same then would you be as just as OK with it?
It depends on what you define as spam/slide.
Poal is pretty clean regarding spam and sliding is also taken care off when a new account without a previous history is flooding posts. It might not be obvious to most but a lot of effort is done to prevent Poal from becoming a circlejerk (typical shill tactic to drive away legit users).
