I have no idea where to post this so I posted it here.
Say you're at a roleplay room in SL and you want a second character to use when you do not feel like using your first one. Swapping out shapes, skins, hairs, clothes, etc. are easy. But names are tough. Even using a title maker to add a name as a title runs into the problem of them seeing your first name and treating you as another character.
How do you make alts for SL? I heard you can make new accounts if you have multiple email addresses but I heard Sl frowns on this.
Asking the people on help island they are sure their is a way to buy alts using a one time ten dollar fee, but none of them knows how, and searching the linden labs page does not show how. So I must ask, how do I buy alts for SL.

From: Johnnifer Babenco How do you make alts for SL? I heard you can make new accounts if you have multiple email addresses Yes, and if the planets are aligned correctly that day, you can use the same address with more than one avatar. From: someone but I heard Sl frowns on this. Nope. they frown on using alts for abuse, but that should really go without saying since they frown on using any account for that =) The official line in the community standards is that alts are valid as long as you play nice with them. From: someone asking the people on help island they are sure their is a way to buy alts using a one time ten dollar fee, but none of them knows how, and searching the linden labs page does not show how. So I must ask, how do I buy alts for SL. There used to be a fee for creating alts, but at present there is no way to mark a new account as an alt or to pay for it.

But 4 alts is enough to handle

But 4 alts is enough to handle thanks, I got to try that then. I wondered as no two people agreed on this (one said only one per email, another said multiples are free, etc.). thank you.
