I doubt it....it just sounds like you will have everything the same.Chinchilla! wrote:The only real benefit of this feature would be if you could have 2 different buddy lists, sign on twice, and have twice the buddy list capacity. But I'm not sure that's possible since AIM stores buddy lists on their side. Or is that possible? hmmmmmm......................
This could be very bad when someone cracks a pw. I mean if you sign on to someone elses acct to which you know the pw.....whats going to happen? You can stay on that acct all day and the person owning it cant do anything about it?

Not good. Will AIM notify you if you sign on to the same screenname twice? ( I know that using AOL and AIM it will, at least it did until a few days ago). If AIM doesn't notify you, then someone else could eavesdrop on your conversations (although they'd only get the person you are talking to...a sort of half convo).KooLTaB101 wrote:This could be very bad when someone cracks a pw.
