Letting 1 email have more than one account

MadamJay··1 votes·6,342 views

I need 2 accounts, and I only really want it to connect to one email address. I had to make another email for another account. I was thinking what if you can make i so that you have multiple accounts maybe 1-4 to be able to connect to one email.

I'm not sure if this works, but when I saw on the internet once that you can use googlemail and gmail interchangeably but use it for the same thing twice, but getting it in the same email (I think). ex; johnjohnnyjohnsonmcjohn@googlemail and [email protected] should work. Not sure though.

Why?

Why not just make a new email account?

Most email services are free.

Why would you have to check the other email once your account is created?

To delete things to not have a spam email. Why would you want more than 2 emails? Why would you want to have so many emails attached to you. Thinking about it already irks me.

But why would you ever go into that email again. Create the email, sign up new account and then forget the email ever existed. It is that simple. There, you don't have more then your work and personal email anymore because you never use the new one you just made again. Who cares if an unused email gets spam in it?

It is a concept, so if you want to make more than one account, you would keep on making emails. Yes you dont have to.keep.up with the email. But I dont want things i dont use to be attached to me. Its like keeping things you dont use and save it in storage. Instead of throwing it out it becomes clutter.

I use to play this mmorg called tibia. You were able to use one email and.create.how many accounts or characters on it. All you had to do was sign in and from there you got to choose what account you wanted to use and the login in. Currently you need one email, and to log into another account you have to close the whole client and restart it to be able to.sign into another account.

If you have a reputable email service you can create an alias in your email that will receive email from multiple different addresses. I work for an IT company and set these up regularly for users.

That is cool does gmail do that?

You can also just have emails auto forwarded.

The reason that Riot requires a single email address for a single account is because that increases account security.

If your email address is compromised (which happens quite often), then only one League account is compromised.

Fraudulent activity is much easier to track when it only happens on one account, opposed to occurring over multiple accounts.

With the time you are taking to create and comment on this thread you could already have a new email, new League profile.

That isn't the point I am making about the new email account. Emails are more compromised I would think it would be that the accounts would be more compromised.

Hackers tend to go for email accounts because they can then find out what services you have tied to that email address based on what emails you receive.

Then they can go to that site, select forgot password, use your email as a form of verification, and access the account.

Also, people make the mistake of using the same passwords on multiple different accounts so often if one account can be breached, many accounts can be breached.

It may not be YOUR point, but it is a MAJOR reason why Riot wouldn't want to do this.

Most people don't realize that "Security" and "Convenience" are opposites, especially when it comes to the Internet.

I've never seen a use for two accounts, mind informing me why?

I am a support main on one account(this one) and i play mid on another. I couldnt practice a lot of the basics in normals on my first account because i was playing really good people who were just stomping me in the mid lane.
