Is this phenomenon unique to the Rant? On other boards I've seen a few people start new user names after getting banned but alters seem rampant here.

Just tying to understand.

Some do it to get around being banned.
Some do it after being irl'd on their original account.
Many do it to troll people under a fake persona.
Others make alters so they can comment on topics and take stances that they wouldn't want their normal account associated with.

Think of it as the multiple heads of the same hydra to convolute a multitude of psychological disorders. Probably a place for internet tough guys to hide behind as well.

I say...

So, who are some of the more notable, long-running alters? I think I might have cussed out the alter of an otherwise good Mizzou fan.
