Why the hell does the same person have two different admin accounts?
She doesn't; Bishonen's not an admin.
Yeah, but it used to be the other way around. People never would have passed Bishonen's Godzilla account at an RfA (though why not exactly, escapes me). Letting the account with the "respectable" persona ( (IMG:
smilys0b23ax56/default/laugh.gif) ) go up for, and pass, an adminship "election", THEN trading bits for the two accounts on grounds that they are the same person anyway, seems like cheating to me. Again, the reason being that this could not have been done from the outset-- the community would not have allowed it directly-- so why should it be allowed to happen the sneaky way?
And god knows we wouldn't want to have cheating or lack of fair play at Wikipedia.

It didn't happen for a long time though.
