It's not even unique to pet sites either, the 'one account' rule applies to so many websites nowadays and a perma-ban to all current standing accounts with the option to create a new account after ban is fairly normal. News media platforms tend to enforce this rather strongly, same with some social media groups or social forums in general.
The moment someone starts to call mods or website staff dictators/fascists/etc tends to be the moment I reassess my opinion on them, especially when the rules for said website are so clearly laid out. 99% of the time it's a case where the person is just salty for being called out on their bullshit or that they can't just keep getting away with breaking the very black and white ToS they agreed to upon making their account.
>Do not post topics or content pertaining to real-world religion or politics.
"WAHHHH MODS ARE BIGOTS BECAUSE THEY WON'T LET US TALK ABOUT QUEER POLITICS DESPITE THE GAME BEING SUPER QUEER POSITIVE AND SUPPORTING 2SLGBTQ+ STUFF OPENLY AND BEING HELLA INCLUSIVE ABOUT EVERYTHING. I'M BEING OPRESSED."
(I say the above with all the sarcasm in the world, I swear on me mum, I am queer af)
>Do not seek, offer, or post gore, pornography, obscene, or vulgar content.
"FR IS TERRIBLE BECAUSE THEY WON'T LET ME USE THEIR CURRENCY SYSTEM TO BUY PORNO ART OF MY SPARKLEDOG IN THE OPEN FORUMS THEY'RE BEING INTOLERANT AND UNFAIR. WHY CAN X SELL THEIR ART BUT THEY CAN'T DRAW A DICK ON IT????"
>Do not seek or offer medical advice; this includes but is not limited to mental health counseling, veterinary advice, dietary advice, etc.
"FLIGHTRISING MODS ARE ABLEIST AND CORRUPT BECAUSE THEY WON'T LET ME POST MISINFORMATION/DISINFORMATION ABOUT COVID/DISEASE/[INSERT X THING HERE] FOR THE MILLIONTH TIME OR TALK ABOUT HOW USING WEED OIL SUDDENLY CURED ALL OF THE CANCER IN MY DAD'S UNCLE'S COUSIN'S DAUGHTER'S DOG."
>Do not use our forums or site as a personal blog, diary, or other private journaling platform.
"WHY WON'T FR ALLOW ME TO POST ALL MY PERSONAL INFO I JUST NEED A SAFE SPACE TO VENT WHAT DO YOU MEAN TRAUMA DUMPING ON A PUBLIC FORUM ISN'T A GOOD IDEA FOR MY OWN SAFETY??? I NEED MY PERSONAL NEEDS TO BE MET. I NEED TO TALK ABOUT MY FEELINGS RIGHT NOW AND TREAT THE PUBLIC FORUMS LIKE IT'S MY OWN LOCKED TUMBLR ACCOUNT. EVERYONE NEEDS TO KNOW MY CURRENT TRAUMA AT ANY GIVEN TIME LIKE I'M THE MAIN CHARACTER IN SOME ANIME WAAAAAA"
>You agree to register a maximum of one account per individual user.
"BUT I NEED SEVEN ALT ACCOUNTS FOR PROFITS AND DRAGON STORAGE WHY CAN'T I JUST HAVE THAT RATHER THAN FARM UP TREASURE AND USE FR'S IMPLEMENTED GAME MECHANICS TO INCREASE MY LAIR AND HIBDEN TO FIT ALL THESE DRAGONS AND USE THE FORUMS OR FLIP SHIT TO GET MONEY. I NEED ACCESS TO ALL THESE ACCOUNT AND I NEED TO BE ABLE TO PLAY THEM LIKE THEY'RE DIFFERENT PEOPLE TO SCAM OTHERS!! FOR MONEY!!!!! FR LET ME HAVE THIS!!!!"
I don't know fam I'm tired and very fed up with people who don't seem to be able to understand that rules for a website apply equally to everyone within it, regardless of your ability to play the game or what you 'give' the game in return. Whales still get banned for multi-ing because they'll just buy their shit back, nobody is free from this.
