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".

You're not doing a great job at it, then.
(I have two sockpuppets: Charlotte, which predates the current sockpuppet rules, and Pinkie_Pie; I'm fairly sure Glenn is aware both are me)
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.
I suppose a PM afterwards wouldn't hurt, though, just to confirm the sockpuppet is who they say they are.
