Ugh. I suppose I now have to come out of the closet and say that I 
myself have a separate account that I occasionally use when I'm 
involved in too many arguments with my main account, and want to be 
able to ignore them all for a while...

I have never used it for any dubious activities like vote rigging or 
anything. In fact, that account has never once been used for 
discussion of any page, and with I think 1 exception, has never been 
used for editing a page that I edited with my main account.

If there's a real objection to this then I'll stop (and make public 
that account name, if you like).

How this all relates to Pizza Puzzle - it's not so much having an 
alias that's dubious (I think), but rather using it for dodgy 
purposes like escaping a ban, vote rigging, creating false concensus 
in a debate, etc... this sort of behaviour is, I agree, a problem.
