How do I create a new account?

[Sederholm]

Gonna need a new account to carry out some dubious things described on this forum. So how do I do it?

Do I create a new user on the PS3?
Do I create an entirely new PSN account?
How do I do this, couldn't find any guide?

Dubious things huh?

Yeah you gotta create a new psn.

So, how do I create a new PSN account? Got a link to a step-by-step guide?

Okay, at the xmb scroll to the left and create a new user. Then log into that user and then scroll to the right where it says you can create a psn account. Click on that and go step by step there. You need a new email address because only on psn name can be associated with an email address. Then what you do is add your main account to the new one and boom, you are all set.

Now we're getting somewhere. But I have to provide an address aswell, can this be my actual address or should I just invent something?

You can use the same address as your other account. I have two accounts with the same details apart from the email address and password.

When I created my secondary account I used my real address. As long as the email addresses are different it's all good.

Note also, that the new e-mail address can be a fake.
