I'm not exactly sure where to post this but here it goes. Does it count as an alt if someone I knew registered on here by using my E-Mail address as one of the ways for contact information?
 
Probably would. Is it the same email address that is being used to set up the account? If so then more than likely yes.

Although if you were looking for a place to post it, you could have posted it in the ask a question thread.

The person says thet they were gonna use one of my other e-mail addresses & not the one that I used to set up my account with.
 
We monitor alts based on IP address and not E-mail, as it's a lot easier for someone to make up a new E-mail address. As long as you don't have 2 accounts, it's fine.

The account will in no way be mine & i'm gonna take a guess & say that the person can't use my computer to register on here.
 
Yeah, if they register on the computer you registered with there is a possibility both will be banned for alts. It's a lot better for your friend to use their computer, to register with at least.

Thanks for the help. I very much appreciate it
