The term main (also referred to as a main or primary account) usually refers to a player's highest leveled account or their most frequently used account. This term is usually used by players who have multiple accounts, most commonly referred to as "alts" (short for alternates). These accounts are usually disposable and in essence, they are technically 'pures', as they are created and trained for multiple purpose(s), such as money making and typically, only a specific set of skill(s) are focused on and trained for any gain to the player (usually monetary).
