If you have/want an alt account in a game, you should be account/IP address/MAC address banned

Play in your own rank or don't play at all. Don't make a new account to cheat or avoid a ban, you're just ruining it for everybody else and if you say it's fun, you deserve to be in an asylum for sadism

I have a second account for Fallout 76 so I can store things and easily transfer stuff between characters on my main account. It’s not cheating, it’s QOL.

It’s also not against any rules to use another account to get around a ban. The ban applies to the account that got banned, not the person. The punishment is losing any progress on the original account. Buying the game a second time is legal and very, very rarely against any rules the games company has.

Obviously cheating is a different issue, to an extent. Anything third party is wrong, but I personally see nothing wrong with some exploitation of a glitch to get around a stupid grind. I’ve used a few in 76 because after 1200 hours, the grinding gets boring.

No because as much as it sucks to play against very clear smurf accounts it also sucks being punished for simply being good at a game.
