Use of multiple accounts[edit source]
It appears as though you are controlling multiple accounts at one time on The Sims Wiki. However, The Sims Wiki has a policy that prohibits the use of two or more accounts at the same time. Controlling multiple accounts - often known as sock puppetry - is generally against the rules, since both accounts can be used to evade wiki policies and reduce trust from the community. As such, I do request that you choose the account through which you would like to edit on The Sims Wiki from now on. Please let me know which account you would prefer to use from now on, either by responding to this message on your preferred account, or by letting me know on my talk page. Alternatively, if you have a particular reason for why you feel you should be allowed to use multiple accounts, or if you have any questions or concerns, please let me know. -- LostInRiverview talk • blog • contribs 13:43, April 6, 2015 (UTC)
