  Hi @hypemusicxclusive, each email address can have only one account, but:

  – You can have more than one site on a single account

  OR, if you definitely need a different username,

  – Your email provider may support aliases, which would essentially let you use a different address though our site would see it as different.

  With gmail for example, instead of this:

  (email visible only to moderators and staff)

  Use this:

  (email visible only to moderators and staff)

  You can make that +1, +whatever, +doesnotmatter … whatever letters or numbers make the most sense to you. Gmail will ignore the plus sign and anything after it. But we won’t, so it’s in effect a second email account that delivers to the same address.

  Want to give that a try? You’d just use a different browser window/profile to set up the second one.
