I, too, when looking for cheating, always pay attention to the conditions of the manager. In fact, there are quite a few alternative accounts that take advantage of the absence of this rule, but I pass by, realizing that if the manager allows participation, then this is normal.
In addition, accounts with a negative tag also take advantage of the absence of a no-participation rule with a red tag, and this has been brought up many times in Murat's threads. For normal participants in bounty companies, the rule, even if it is not announced, goes without saying, but for cheaters, this is a green light.
For a bounty I would not be so strict. Users are being paid with worthless tokens most times.
If I don't know that two accounts were owned by the same user but later found they were accepted in the same campaign and they did not let me know even in PM to keep it private, I will tag both accounts.
Did it ever happened to you, someone applying with two different accounts and then sending you a PM after he got accepted with both?
@yahoo62278 since you are also active in this topic, did the above scenario ever happened to you?
Noone has ever confessed to me that they were in the campaign with multiple accounts. I remember back in the Bitsler campaign I had invited a member to fill an open spot. Come to find out he was already in with another account. It did not end well for him when he got exposed. Had he informed me he was already in with another account I would have asked him to choose which to stay in the campaign with and please leave with his other account. Being as I invited him, I would not have tagged him for what I feel is cheating.
It's getting to where you need a rule for damn near everything these days. Otherwise, everyone is just going to look for a way out of a cheating accusation. People should have some common sense but that's too much to ask. I 100% understand that everyone does not have the same circumstances or opinion as me, but to me enrolling with multiple accounts is just cheating. Using the excuse that you applied with multiple accounts not knowing which would be accepted is just plain crazy. Apply and if rejected try with another, then it's ok. What happens when you get accepted with 2 or more accounts? I do not for a minute believe anyone will pm a manager and say hey I own both of those accounts. They're gonna stay in til they get caught.
