I have a nation, and my girlfriend wanted to try this game, she did and made her nation, but we only have one computer, which means one I.P. Address. Naturally she wanted to be in the same region as I am. I read having the same IP ADDRESS can cause trouble. Is there anything I can do to make this situation NOT trouble? If it requires her joining say, another region, then thats fine with her. If she ends up having to delete her account, she volunteered since she isn't too far into the game and my nation is kind of prospering.

As long as you are both not in the WA and both obeys the rules for conduct, I don't think there would be a problem. However, I am not a mod or an admin so take my word with a grain of salt.

You can have as many nations as you want, however you can only have one nation in the WA. If you are sharing a computer then there's a strong chance that both your and your girlfriend's nations will be considered puppets of each other, So as long as you have at most one WA nation between you, you should be fine.

Ok well, I belong to the WA, she doesn't and doesn't care to join anyways. She can access the site from a different computer in the morning due to her being at school in the library, but I pretty much do it from home here. So hopefully, there isn't a problem.
