Things I've learned.
1. It's just a game, have fun.
2. Don't waste time on people who think you are scum. Ignore them and keep scum hunting.
3. Don't take everything so personal.
4. Tunneling sucks (unfortunately I can't seem to stop)
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
Established players starting Alt accounts (an account different from their primary account, usually used as a means to play against their established meta) may not /in as a Newbie since they'd be taking a spot away from a true site Newbie. Additionally, since the Alt account itself doesn't qualify, you may not function as SEs or ICs under the Alt account either, even if the player behind the account does qualify for one of these positions.
The ONLY way in which a new Alt account (one with less than two finished games) may play in a Newbie game is to offer to replace into existing games. Once the account has a record of three finished games, you may then /in as an SE player as normal. Once the account has a record of 5 completed games and 3 months on-site, you may /in as an IC player after ListMod certification as normal. You may always instead use your primary account to function as an SE or IC, depending on qualifications.
If you want to play your first game on a completely fresh alt, choose a different queue. Taking slots away from genuine newbies for an in-game advantage is unethical. Repeated attempts to circumvent this could result in mod sanctions. Not only does this drastically increase my workload, but I have a much, much better idea of which players are likely alts than you'd think. All you do by trying to cheat the system and illicitly sneak into a game is 1) irritate me and 2) make me eagerly wait for you to slip up.
Also, if you believe you could potentially have an IP conflict with another user, I would appreciate being informed of this when you /in. It means both less work for me and less of a wait time for you before you get into your game. So it's win-win.

Since several people have asked me this, you can still play as an alt if you follow the rules in the OP. I was being hyperbolic, so I'll edit my post to make this clearer.
