I apparently can't make any sockpuppets

Why is this? I've used one of my other email addresses, but every time I try to log in it says "permission denied".

  • They most likely haven't been verified / accepted yet. Just wait a little longer and see if you can use them later.

  • If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.
    Glenn has to register them yet.

    We don't want to be spammed with sockpuppets- and it's annoying to have to ban all your sockpuppets when we ban you too.

    You're not doing a great job at it, then.

    Nope- we know who owns all the sockpuppets.

    "Spammed" would imply we have no idea who is who.
  • I think, when we make sockpuppets, we should PM a mod to let them know.

    You''re kind of supposed to. It's a) in the rules, and b) bad form not to tell Glenn when registering it.
  • Oh, we're supposed to send PM's? I figured it was enough to just explain in the registration form.

    (I have two sockpuppets: Charlotte, which predates the current sockpuppet rules, and Pinkie_Pie; I'm fairly sure Glenn is aware both are me)

    Glenn sends the PM's out for you. W have lists of sockpuppets and their owners.

    Probably be a good idea to thank Glenn, actually.

    Wait, what?

    No, it's not PMs.

    There's an approval form that you need to fill out to register a new account.  Basically, it's like a new account request, and then an admin (as of right now; I haven't figured out how to let mods do this yet) approves requests on the new accounts request list.

    It's probably a good idea to say who you are when you're creating a sockpuppet account.  There's a little field called "why do you want to join?" or something, for you to fill out as you're requesting a new account.
  • That's what I've been doing the few times I created sockpuppets.

    I suppose a PM afterwards wouldn't hurt, though, just to confirm the sockpuppet is who they say they are.

    Does Death Of The Author apply to Sockpuppet makers and their sockpuppets, affecting anything they say with sockpuppets?
