How do you get rid of [NS] before nation name?

I have more than one nation, and I just made another and all of a sudden an [NS] pops up in front of the name. I know no one else has the name and it has never happened before.

How do I get rid of it?!

You don't. It's Jolt's way of tracking the NS'ers vs the rest of the population.

You can't, but the admin can. You'll have to wait untill Salusa sees this.

If I understand it correctly, the only people who get that on the front of their name are the ones whose name is already in use by another Jolt forum member who is not in NS. Adding the NS allows you to use your nation name while still being recognizable from the other user of the same name.

No, there is another class of users who get this now. It has to do with the pass-through of email addresses or something. Nations which have been posting for months and months suddenly get dumped into a new [NS] account.

Salusa fixes them when he gets the chance, but it's low priorty. Just enjoy the forums and ignore your postcount.

Oops, sorry about that. I hadn't heard of that happening. Now I know.
