   when I tried to go back to the main citadel when logged in under my subaccount, Jhoric. The page also have a strange display to it, with a capital A to the right on my stat box and the error text taking up the entire page, covering some of the category drop downs. That was fun! Looks like no lasting harm was done, thankfully.

   Well, looky there. I got the same thing when I switched to my subaccount.
   
   I like the the idea of subaccounts but if I have to add new checks to every single page to check for subaccounts, that might be a subaccount killer.  If you don't revert to your main account, the main site thinks you are the subaccount so hunts down all that information, much of which is missing because it wasn't created as a normal account.
   
   Plus it gets into the realm of able to vote on your own posts and such. hmmmmmm
