Puppet Master enables the administrator to assign himself and/or others as designated 'puppet masters'-- meaning that they can control multiple extra accounts.

A simple drop-down menu appears in Quick Reply, New Thread, New Reply, Private Messages, Full Edit and Show Thread Moderation Options to allow the puppet master to select which account to perform the specified action as.

Sign into to your regular user account and post/moderate as an admin only when you need to-- meanwhile maintaining a low profile; Or sign in as a staff member and post as a normal user to be less intimidating; or simply puppet for the sake of puppetry.

When puppet masters use their puppet accounts they will be listed on the Who's Online List to further instill the impression that these are completely separate accounts.

Each puppet master can order their puppets with the first being the default account and define a preference of posting unapproved (for those that need to further edit posts before revealing them) or normally.

I had to 'pull some strings' to make this plugin :p
