LEGO Message Boards Wiki:Petition/Limit duplicate accounts without removing them entirely

So dupe accounts have made chat extremely disruptive as of late, and it's kinda hard to know when a CM should actually do something about the dupes. Dupes can be used for fun but also for disruption, but I propose we don't ban them entirely. In addition to having the owner of the dupe account's name on the dupe's profile page, each specific dupe should get permission from an admin to be on chat. Like an admin should put their signature or something on the dupe's page, confirming they've acknowledged the dupe and let them be on chat. If a dupe does not have an admin signature on their page, CMs should be allowed to instantly ban them. This system makes it MUCH easier for chat to be kept peaceful and not spammy or disruptive. CMs SHOULD be careful to make sure they aren't banning some new user or newb, but any obvious dupes without admin approval (or a username on their page for that matter) should be banned.
