Test Accounts and the New Scratcher Status

(Couldn't find anything on the search about this)

I was just about to make a cloud project but it's really big and I plan to publish alpha/beta/bleeding versions on this account, and releases on @Gravitation. I then remembered that this account is a New Scratcher and that accounts with that rank can't use cloud variables.

I was wondering if there are any plans to implement a system for alts to get the same rank as their parent account, since I rarely spend time on this account. I'll probably be waiting a long time otherwise.

Possibly, all the users registered from the same IP could have the same rank? That could work, especially when IPv6 becomes the most widely used.

Maybe just that both accounts have to verify, but then people could just quickly “altify” their friend's account to get them upgraded. But is that really a problem?

Suggestions, answers?

No, because then, you could get to scratcher rank on one account then make a bot that does spam accounts and you can easily crash the server then.

No, there are no plans for this. If you create a new account for any reason, you should be prepared to wait however long it takes to become a Scratcher.

Making Scratcher accounts is no more strain on the server than New Scratcher accounts, so if you want to make spam accounts, just do it now xD

Hence my glorification of IPv6.
