    Sorry, no, this is not possible.

    A single person may only have one account, paid or unpaid.

    Just out of curiosity, if you have a paid account with unlimited games and all the other benefits, why would you want an additional non-subscriber account ?

    I could use a second name to agree with myself in the forums. I would make a third for when I'm drunk and need to flame people. I would also need to make one where I pretend to be a girl and look for sexy chat.

    Now I'm thinking I also need one to pretend I know everything, and claim I'm a lawyer by day and doctor by night... and study physics and chemistry in my spare time

    There are tons of great reasons to have more than one name.

    in the early days of RHP, before such behavior was abused and banned, I had a second account called Quick. I openly advertised the fact that it was my second account, which I used to play fast & fun games, while reserving this account (my original) for longer, thought out games. The account's still there but I've long forgotten the password, and it hasn't been used since 2003.

    Point being - there are innocent reasons to want a 2nd account. Just not many 😉

    I never had a problem with the users who had more than one user name and stated so. What I didn't like were the people who said they had more than one, but wouldn't say why and wouldn't say who they were. I enjoyed them leaving the site when the new rule finally came.

    I sent feedback saying I wouldn't stand for it since there were many users making new names just to 'roll play' like Zach and his several dysfunctional characters he would make trying to get advice on made up problems. They would rope a 'new friend' and that friend would give advice, share stories, even feel a bit bad for a user going through a problem and it turned out to be someone just making stuff up to have some fun. All while an honest person is sharing their situations and trying to help.

    I went BS, quite frankly.

    For all subscription matters, just send feedback. Your situation is now resolved.
