    In progress Remove limit for accounts per email

    I'm creating an RPG board where each character would have their own account. This means one person needs multiple accounts/usernames. But the forum only allows one account per email, and I'm not finding the setting (switched to Advanced) where you can adjust this.

    How can you edit so there is no limitation to how many accounts one email can set up?

    I could only find a limit per ip address but nothing for the email. I don't think it's possible.

    It is not possible every user is assigned an email address in the database, and it is not possible to have many accounts with the same address, so you will have to make different accounts with different emails, it is the way to combat spam

    You can not have more then one account with the same Email address the servers hold the data for one member with one Email address.

    reason's are
    If you have one account and it's hacked then all your account's could be hacked at the same time.

    If there is a problem with one account it can be found easy by the admin/ founders of the forum.

    If you need to ban an account by Email address for some reason then it would have problems banning the Emails as they are all the same.

    Each account has a number and the Email address is how your password would be reset and the system would not know what account to send the new password to.
