    u dont loose ur records by using multiple accounts, u just get multiple entrys on the leaderboards. that SUCKS! i used a 2nd account ('moghlie') in my early days of wipEout HD, until i told XBARNSTERX about it, he washed my brain and healed me from doing this. luckily all the records i set with 'moghlie' are deleted, cause i never used that account again for wipEout (i believe after 6 months of inactivity all records are deleted automatically [PROBLEMSOLVER]).

    I know some phantom- pilots don't want to embarrass theirselfs on their normal name in phantom, so they use 2nd account lol. Some just want to bully around and some I think just have multiple personalities

    Don't forget that with a Japanese account it is possible to use a 'screen name' that is not your real psn id -- a feature that apparently some developers did not take into account while developing their online functionality -- such that any American or British player could create a Japanese account and appear as variable 'legitimate' players.

    This being an impetus, many of the Japanese players you meet may not actually be Japanese, but just bored 101 level players trying to get a high by posing as a Japanese person.

    Dual-accounts aren't my type of thing but I guess people have a reason for using them.

    Cool

    Dual accounts: people trying to hide the fact they are hikikkomori? (I'M JOKING)

    But seriously, BILLION-GOD nearly made me fall off my couch when I first raced him (aka ReachBig). "Who the heck is this!?!?!?"

    Does anyone know who is an American pilot with several accounts "go_weapon_girl" or "yeeees_sheep_girl" or similar? always uses Icaras Hd and enjoys stop and shoot him and then send messages provocative, often see him take it with new drivers that exhausted leave the lobby.
